Steve Matai Appreciation Thread

[Chip and Chase]

The maturity in his game now is amazing. He is one of the top 5 centers in the game. He's managed to put that velvet glove over the iron fist. I hope the mole is on the money and he re-signs before the weekend. Long live Stevie !!!!

I wanted Alberts, I maintain if he continued playing he would have been better

Ashely Alberts !! A blast from the past

Was a Matai fan from the moment Ben Cross dropped his knees into Terry Hill's back and Matai belted the crap out of him

Yep. I was also a matai fan. I vaguely remember you being one of the only ones to agree that he was the better player. What was his debut game? 2005?

Yes. Rd 3 v Storm 05.

Lol yeah spent about a year debating the merits of it with DSM

Adam Luchetti could have been anything for us as well

Question: has Liam said he's a kiwi? Both brothers were junior Australian reps. Kieran has obviously made his choice, but has Liam?

---

Don't mean to be rude but I don't think Liam will have to make that decision.

I've wondered about that too, how much of a Kiwi is Kieran?

 

[stoodamire]

You can definately hear it in Kieran's accent.

The only thing i haven't liked about Matai was his recent"run in" with a referee.

He's tough (even though the haters point out his continuous injuries), he's reliable and he is playing great footy.
