Actually he has been one of our best forwards this year and the end of last. Don't know why he only got 20 minutes yesterday, But there does seem to be some conflict with BA. Maybe they asked him what he thought of the swap and he was insulted. Most of you don't seem to understand you cannot trade them like chess pieces if they don't want to be traded. He has a contract and there has to be something in it for them, otherwise why get up and hop down to Canberra of all places?
One other thing is he has spent a lot of time on the bench and probably doesn't think he is a bench player. I would swap him and Lane at any time between starters and bench players.

He only got 22mins when usually averages 35-45mins.
One can only hope there's a swap happening. I think it will be another wasted year if we don't get Lomax this year.
He's been playing shit since he got his contract renewal. He never looks to offload anymore and practically does nothing..
Not a Matto fan. Too many instances shown of a selfish nature to be a valued member of a team. Swap him out for lomax has to be a consideration.
Probably is carrying an injury. BA has repeatedly said selections and rotations are based on what he thinks is best for the team.
I think it was Wiz who first pointed out that Matto plays well at contract time. Since he signed his ~ $600K contract he has been disappointing.
To reuse that old saying.
Matto looks like Tarzan, plays like Jane.

Maybe there was truth to the foxx rumours in the off season.
I can't see Matto going unless it's to a club that can help his ambitions rep level etc I don't see Dragons as that club
That would be nice.
Managing game time through out the season maybe. He might get more another week?
