quite difficult watching gus talking about this on the footy show.

I like Gus Gould but come on what were all those tears about.

Matty Johns has cheated on his wife, been part of a gang bang, yes the reaction in the media is over the top but I don't see why we're supposed to be in mourning for him? Plenty of people go through much tougher things in life and deal with it without making a big thing about it. If you can't hack the consequences then stay faithful to your wife, its not hard, most people manage it.

Matty and his mate Gus need to man up a bit with this one.

Never mind a Facebook group being set up, a potential Wire transfer target has flown over to support Matty Johns. http://www.foxsports.com.au/story/0,865 ... 14,00.html

Well yes but only for another 16 days, where did you get this information from

Good grief.

Matty Johns is a man who:

-has had two fantastic careers - RL player and Media personality
-has the support of his wife, family and friends
-has a "multi-million-dollar home in Collaroy"
-has just "took his wife and two sons to a luxury resort in Broome to get away from it all"

All despite being someone of clearly suspect moral fibre. Feel sorry for him? No chance - he's had a great life and is still enjoying all the trappings of it.

You sure? I'd have put you down as late thirties.

I dont get all this.

What are the new allegations?

He took part in a gang bang with a willing participant. Yes he cheated on his wife and kids but apart from that whats the crime?

If a bloke makes a mistake he should be judged, criticised and punished at the time but then he should be allowed to move on hopefully learning from those mistakes.

Unless this woman is now crying rape then I cant understand what the fuss is about. Are channel9's ratings in need of a boost or something?
