Could Ryan Mayterson win a grand final as half back

Posted by Wile E. Coyote on September 23, 2018 at 2:18pm

Told he wasn’t a half back -(probably correctly)

But if Cronk plays and can’t make the 80

Then Matterson could fill in

Robbo would be more likely to move either Mitch Aubusson or Victor Radley into the halves than Matterson.

Cronk will be fine. Even with one arm behind his back he is better than most other halves in the comp.

  He would be a true half
  
  or would he be a quarter since he is already a half

They’ll probably play O’Sullivan there

No never heard of him, but I reckon Ryan Matterson could.

  Tim mannah coukd have played 5/8 in the cows gf win. Thurston did all work. If matterson wins a premiership at half with the chooks doesn't make him a half u buy to win a premiership he is forward

    The discussion is whether or not he is likely to play in the halves if Cronk is not available - not if he is a quality half.

I don't think matterson would of come as far as he has if he stayed at parra. Roosters are better at developing players. we have been absolutely diabolical in that for the last 10 years pretty much since fitzy left.
