I am seriously frustrated with our teams inconsistency over the the past six plus weeks.  As frustrated as anyone, and more so because of our lack of attack.  Anyway, all of that stuff has been covered off by numerous other blogs and general comments.

On a completely different note and level, I, as a lifelong Parramatta supporter want to congratulate Ryan Matterson.  Had a solid game last night, but I was so impressed with the sportsmanship that he showed Api Koriosau when he was in quite some difficulty from a serious head knock.  Made the point of standing solid, calling the ref to halt the game and assisted Api, even after Panthers man Craig Catterick arrived to assist.

Well done.  I always want to see hardness and strength from our team.  Ryan Matterson showed it last night in a different way.  Honourable sportsmanship.  Congratulations Ryan Matterson.  You were there a few weeks back and got support from Fergo which was great.  Nothing from the opposition.  You however went over and above to make sure an opposition player who was in strife was OK.

Loved your work. You should be proud of that, so should the Club and our fans.

  • So impressive 

    and rare 

    the tik tokking idiots should watch and learn class

    • Totally agree.  I just hope the lack of response is not because our fans don't recognise Mattos act, but because Saturday night is not a good night to make a blog. LOL

  • A class act by Matto last night and was generally solid....except for that one mistake early on, which put more pressure on the team in the red zone.

    • I agree, silly attempt at an offload, but he has been very good overall.  Just thought his act of sportsmanship was worthy of a mention.

      • Blog of the day EE

        apart from my fresh prince one I never posted 🤣

        • LOL Carlo.

  • Yes well done Ryan Matterson 👏 with luck noone else gets knocked out this year. It's only a game. RIP Joel Dark 🙏

  • Good on you for posting this EE, in that one act of human kindness, Matto did himself his family, fans, club an game proud! Good man. Class act!

  • As it should be EE - join you in congratualting this great act of sportsmanship.

    We saw it from the Tigers last week as well

    Good stuff - Api was GORN, GORN, GORN and if Matto had not been there to hold him up he would have face planted very badly

    Matto was also the one who checked on Api when he was on the ground and the ball was still in play.
