Is it Matterson, Lane, Mahoney or Someone Else.

A snippet in today's Buzz feed in the Sunday Telegraph alludes to the fact that a Parramatta NRL star that quote " has his nose out of joint" over his salary compared to the disclosed top 100 NRL salaries and those of his team mates on the list.

I hate these types of hit and run accusations by media man Phil Rothfield, however where there is smoke I hope there is not fire, in this instance. These types of things left to fester can be detrimental to an entire team, let alone now the innuendo over which player he is referring to.

I came up with 3 possibles in my mind. Matterson on $500,000 , Lane on $440,000 or Mahoney on a lot less still., I don't know what he just signed on for, moving forward.

What are people's thoughts, a load of crap or one of our players realy does have an issue, if so will it impact our teams run to the finals.

  • Have that conversation with your manager. It'll be nothing, Buzz just looking for clickbait. Much was made of the fact that we only have one player in the top 20, Mitch Moses in 20th and here we are as a geniune contender. That does mena that most of our players will be slightly underpaid.

      • That's a good point, I wonder how correct the list was," it was published by the Sunday Telegraph" and how did they get the information. I've tried to find the list but it's protected and needs an account online with the telegraph.

  • It's probably more than 1 and may become a stream if we run very deep or win it. Hey but that's what footballers do - whinge about what others are earning 

  • Ummmmm - player manager negotiates a contract on your behalf, then Phuckwit Phil posts to say player is not happy with result.

    FMD.

  • Can anyone post the top 100 salaries in the NRL?

    Would make an interesting read. 

  • N.Brown would be justified if he felt a bit miffed.

    The man puts in, has a go. Everytime

    But...This story is bottom feeder bullshit

    • Nathan Brown is the king of stifling our attack. He gets the ball on the 4th tackle all the time and absolutely kills the play. Let him go. Kaufusi and Marata are better. 

  • I can 100% confirm that the player in question after starring for Parramatta this season and almost singlehandedly taking us from pretenders to contenders is none other than Andrew Davey.After a run of quality performances he is a shoe in for the maroons and no doubt deserves an upgrade.

    • If this is true (and I know you would never stir the pot mate) then all of a sudden (suddenly like) I reckon Davey is a wanker.

      2 or 3 appearnces and having a whinge?

      I heard it is ole Ukelele having a parting shot at the Eels before going to the kittens.

      • I watched an interview with him this week saying he still can't believe he is playing NRL, but I did study human behavior as part of my private eye course at night school at Werris creek community college and so that statement could easily be translated as I am playing NRL now and deserve an upgrade?100%.

"When you change coaches you need to expect some players to chase the money elsewhere because there is no relationship with the new coach. Ryles is now building the squad with the players that fit his style. It's nobody's fault, it's just how it goes."
