we didn’t make a play for segyaro when he was in limbo & looking for a club, doubt we would make a play for him now. Matterson, BA didn’t want a few years ago so much so he was playing Ron Massey cup, so don’t think he would want to come here.
I don’t have an opinion on whether we should make a play for Segeyaro or not. However it was reported in the media at the time that he was made an offer by the Eels but rejected it in favour of the Sharks.
Subsequent to that the Sharks got into Cap problems and did not come through with the offer. He then played Canterbury cup until the Broncos made signed him.
It has also been reported that Matterson was let go over a disagreement on what was his best position. BA wanted him to play on the Edge
matterson is an intesting one, left the rorters for more money (rumoured 350k per season) and a 3 years deal, has 1 decent year and gets the shits and demands more money.
dont think i want someone with that attitude at the club.
Yeah - remember the good old days where players were paid according to the ability they had already shown and what they had already achieved rayher than bullshit media hype and massively inflated egos.
The player market is more like a futures market these days and, man, there have been some terrible investments in recent years.

All the more reason for the game to completely overhaul the entire contracting system
"I think out of the players mentioned, Harry Hayes would be the best suited to the style of play Ryles is looking for, he would be good off the bench and a reliable starter if needed. Ideally Jack Williams on an edge is the way to go, but if there…"
"Nah Latu is coming back from injury and I assume will start relatively soon. Expect Lokeni to go back to JF when more injured players comeback . Lokeni has actually been contracted to eels for a while, he played SG ball last year and was more…"

no dickhead policy works for me.

Yep. That'll do me too
I like Ray Stone, has the potential to develop into a good club player.
No to Matterson he seems to have issues with coaches.
Seggy, no thanks had his chance to come over when we offered him a contract.
