Quote Warrington Wolves former Australian Rugby League international Matt King has sensationally quit the club today according to reports. King, who joined Warrington in 2008, is understood to be one of the division’s highest earners with an estimated salary of around £300,000 per year. King’s contract was due to expire at the end of the forthcoming Super League season but it is understood that he has today negotiated an immediate release from the club following discussions between King’s agent, Wolves Head Coach Tony Smith and club majority shareholder and music mogul Simon Moran. Prior to joining Warrington, King enjoyed a successful career in the NRL with the now disgraced Melbourne Storm, earning a winners medal following their premiership success against Manly Sea Eagles in 2007 (subsequently stripped of this honour due to salary cap irregularities). King, 30 famous for his distinctive afro hairstyle also represented his native Australia gaining 10 caps, scoring twice before his move to England. King’s reported availability is likely to alert the attention of several top flight clubs in both in the UK and Australia, although it is understood that a move back to the NRL is the most likely option. Leading NRL side Canberra Raiders is a possible destination for King who could fill the gap left by the recently departed Joel Monaghan, who quit after a prank photograph of him simulating a sex act with a fellow player’s dog.'" www.smh.com.au/rugby-league/leag ... 17nq7.html

HMMMMMMMMMMM

we gotta get joel now? or are we ok with bridge and atkins? hmmmmmmmm. very awkward!

Just hope it's Aussie hack garbage.

Can anyone with inside info confirm or deny this ?????

on the link were does it say that matt king has quit? suspicious.

Nowhere on the link or on that site is Matt King mentioned

It's not on the link. Where has it come from? Did the OP make it up as a cruel joke?

Anyway, Warrington should leave Monaghan for Huddersfield and sign Greg Ingils instead. He's off contract currently.

£300,000? reeaaaallly?

Everything slots into place now. This rears its head on the same day as Danny Sculthorpe is released by the Bulls. We always said Sculthorpe was going to sign on Boxing Day and looks like our patience has borne fruit. Someone get the keys for his Beamer.

Its a blag, end of.

This doesn't ring true to me.

Matt has been to Wembley twice with us , he is one of the clubs highest earners, his wife has a job over here. The link to the Aussie site makes no mention of Matt. Perhaps Wirefan is having a 'joke' at our expense. Greg Inglis has signed for South Sydney according to the same newspaper.

Lifetime ban for wirefan? Should we start a poll?

anyone seen hodgsons twiter? some one said about him being released to join tigers in nrl quickly denied by hodgson but could it be cause its not official? i hope not lol

The link works for me - story on Matt King as copied and pasted above.

the link goes to melbourne signing two young stars or summit. not a mentio n of matt king.hodgson wouldn't be realesed before he has even played a game. stupid rumours made up to brighten up the off season.

Seems to keep flipping between that page and one about The storm, but it is on there.

I wouldnt want Monaghan as a replacement though.

Gutted!

just comes up about storm every time but at the start before it loaded it does say matt king quits n the bar but then changes so dunno. very suspicious tbh.

he's a goner

double post
