Bring back the barometer

[Mighty Lions]

HELL YES - another two years!!!

So happy for a great bloke and developing player.

Better than I hoped for. I wasn't game to start a get the boy another contract thread - I was too chicken to cop the abuse.

Don't underestimate the need for and importance of players who bring the energy to training and game days, and who care more about the team than themselves. They bring out the best in the people around them who have a higher ceiling.

Abuse you should not have to cop but maybe you confuse that abuse with a different opinion thats not yours and mistake that for abuse.

I am happy for Rhys with his new contract but firmly believe he is another who wastes a list spot for another young recruit who has the potential to be more.

You're right. Not abuse, but much negativity. He doesn't have a large fan supporter base in bigfoooty. He now has two years to turn that around and I hope he does.

I think most are supporters of Rhys Mathieson the bloke.
Just not supporters of Rhys Mathieson the AFL Footballer.

You could do a lot worse than having Matho as depth on minimum wage.

His biggest supporter is Fagan and the entire Brisbane lions playing list. And the only reason why Matho isn't in our starting squad is because of Neale. That tells you how highly Fagan and co rate him.

And if he had been traded to another club we would have wished him all the very best like we do Keays, did Patfull etc and not with delicate schadenfreude felt when the likes of Karnesis fail to reach the heights they perceived themselves to be destined for.

 

[luthor]

Much maligned player by many around here but valued by those who matter.

Well done Beast Mode.

Happy to have him on board for another two years

Matho well and truly back now and should be mightily motivated for a massive pre-season.

I suspect when the club re-signed Matho it did so knowing Lachie was leaving, hence the 2 years.

Didn't make sense last week when the deal was announced, but it does so now.

Yeah look Neale is a great bloke this isn't something he'd just spring on the club.

Not sure he’s been developing. To be brutal, he has t got much better since his first season. Statistically he’s got worse

Up until the final against Melb I thought the quality of his contribution had improved this year. Took a step back under finals pressure, but he isn't alone there.

Not that he usually plays as a full time midfielder but his best game is still. The GWS game IIRC in his second season after Beams got injured.
