Favourite shark. Big loss, especially defensively. We were a bit soft in the middle this year. Not looking great next year without him.

Sad to see him go but I think we were a bit soft in the middle because he far from his best this year. And being a year older it was his time to go.

Rudolf will be excellent for us in the middle next year

Melbourne, but grew up in the Shire
With Capewell and Prior gone we say goodbye to our 2 best forwards in the 2016 final in Canberra. It’s a while back now, and players can’t live on those sort of performances forever. Still, they were important performances and they deserve to be remembered for them

I though Graham's one tackle was pretty impressive

What Morris said " Excerpt from Sportingnews "

Sharks coach John Morris confirmed that Prior was in the clubs plans for 2020 and they were disappointed to be losing him.

“We didn’t really want to lose a player of Matt’s ability, character and experience," Morris said to the Sharks website .

"But with the restraints we are operating under due to our salary cap fine, we’ve had to let players go who we would have otherwise liked to keep.

"He will be remembered for playing a huge role in the Sharks first premiership, has been an outstanding representative of this Club, turned into a State of Origin player and was someone who led from the front."

Looking at today's training photos looks like the big guy is still training with us. Trying to stay fit til he heads over there ?
