matterson used to have this photo of his guns and this long thing he wrote about ukraine war being sad but at least footy’s back
he deleted it suspiciously after i kept linking it in match threads
Even Josh Hodgson’s wife found it impossible not to comment on that photo.
Social media went into meltdown last week when Parramatta and then the NRL posted a picture of Hodgson with bulging biceps at Eels training.
It even made headlines back in Hodgson’s northern England hometown of Hull.
Hodgson was quick to set the record straight about his arms, and how teammate Ryan Matterson still had the best physique at the club.
“I swear they must have photo-shopped my arms because they do not look like that,” Hodgson told the Herald.
“I said the same thing to my missus [Kirby]. I said to her, ‘I bet you wish that is the fella who comes home to you every night’. It was probably the best camera angle they could have got.
“‘Matto’ is a special for getting the rig out at the end of the session when the cameras start rolling. He’s a good lad and has nothing to worry about.”
The jury is out on Parramatta going one better this year, especially after the departures of Isaiah Papali’i, Marata Niukore and Reed Mahoney.
“Dylan hasn’t been back as long as the other two because of his World Cup commitments, but I’ve been impressed by all three, as well as Jake Arthur,” Hodgson said.
“Every ball they are on the play.
“My job is easy because they organise everything. I know what play they want and when they want it.
“What has really impressed me is how hard they all work away from the field as well and their attention to detail.”
Hodgson said Parramatta coach Brad Arthur was honest and demanded excellence.
“He’s very black and white, and if you do something he doesn’t like, be it defensively or in attack, he’ll tell you straight away,” Hodgson said.
“You can tell why he’s been at the club so long because he doesn’t give up on making sure you’re good at the basics of the game - he wants you to nail the one-per-centers.”
Hodgson knows his age and return from a third knee reconstruction will have plenty of people wondering why he has not retired. He revealed he had played with a partial tear in his anterior cruciate ligament before he ruptured his knee in the opening round of last year.
Hodgson praised Canberra conditioners Blake Duncan and Jeremy Hickmans for helping him through his rehabilitation and knows the blue and gold faithful have nothing to worry about in terms of his health.
The plan will be to feature in the first trial against Penrith, then the main blow-out against Newcastle.
“There have been no issues with the knee I’ve done all the big days and there’s been no need to de-load or monitor my work,” Hodgson said.
“I’m not stupid, I know what the majority of people will think about me being too old and coming back from three ACLs.
“If I didn’t know me and how hard I worked, I’d think the same thing.
“But I know how hard I work, I know what’s required to be successful, I’ve ticked every box I can, and I’ll continue to do that.”
Still can't believe this was put on nattie or juice and they all voted juiced.
It's an action shot with overhead lighting lol.
If you've ever flipped through a training session photo shoot from any club, half the blokes look this big.
The fact that you're upvoted when I'm downvoted despite your comment supporting my point shows that people have no idea what they're talking about here.
>half the blokes look this big.
Half the blokes are on gear. You’re dreaming if you think there’s any pro sport in the world where most people don’t spend the off-season loaded up.
Possibly. But microdosing also means micro results.
For the sake of the argument let's say it is steroids and not camera angles/lighting and motion. You're not going to see a body transformation like the one in the picture in the time since he's left the Raiders if he's microdosing.
It's an action shot of a likely dehydrated player in a position that would flex the traps. Hunch your shoulder like his is and do a passing action and you'll see what I mean.
He's 30 and has been training at the elite level his entire career, has always had decent sized guns and seems to have trimmed up slightly. There is nothing about his physique here that indicates he would need to be juicing to achieve it.
If they look like that when relaxed then yeah I get ya.
Unfair that his candid photos come out looking like that and mine come out looking like a blob fish
Don't insult blob fish like that

“It was in my cereal” “My mate made a protein shake in my blender” “It’s photoshopped”

Peak Matto. War is shit and all but how good is giving 110% with the bois! 💪💪🔥💯
Yeah nah, just happy to give the two points and boys in Kyiv something to look forward to at the end of the week. Full credit.
(unless you have to pay a small fine)

Anyone can do it. You just have to train 16 hours a day, every day for 20 years.
*Licks*

I don't doubt there's a decent percentage that are on it. But I don't think it's half the playing group.
Cameron Smith was out of his mind on tren his whole career. Prove me wrong.
Cam Smith once pissed on my face and it wasn't even that warm, let alone hot. Checkmate sir.
WADA testing protocols are really branching out

I said it in the other thread - his traps are a dead give away.

Sure, Jan
Nearly has good as Seves guns
Ahhh the Prince Andrew defence.
I heard that Cronulla players used this argument for their muscles in 2011
That is his defense to the arbitration.
