According to NRL Physio on Facebook, Matto has a rib cartilage issue and is in doubt this week. NRL Physio is usually pretty accurate.

"Hopefully we do sign him as long as it isn't for 1 yr as they don't work. we need some aggression in the forwards as we don't have any."
"would love to get Bostck, not completely sold on Sloan but wouldn't say no to him, both would be better than dipstick JAC who keeps making mistakes and personally offers nothing in kick returns and hasn't been the same player since leaving the storm."

Rodwell or Marata to start with Brown onto the bench
Niukore will start and Brown to the bench, easy swap.
Unless BA wants a back-rower on the bench he can just start Brown. Rodwell, Maka and Oggy are all middles, putting Brown there would make it 4 middles on the bench.
I wonder if this is one of Matto's short term injuries that becomes half the season on the sidelines.
His body is a temple, god is his compass.
Matto lucky he didn't play SOO then. There's to much to risk. He has signed hasn't he?
Was thinking the same.
Unbelievable. As much as I like Matterson as a player it really amazed me how a lot of players perform out of their skin when a new contract is looming but as soon as a new contract is signed they seemingly get short to long term injuries.
It's called being injured...nice spin on the story.

So are you saying after signing a new contract, he got injured on purpose or is faking it?
