Well he has given away 10 penalties in 38 games so more 1 every 2-3 games then 2-3 a game

It just landed at Bathurst airport, I'm here with my "Show your stripes" scaf wait for him to clear immigration.
Yeah he's to slow for fullback, he's got a lot to improve at5/8 and to be honest I don't want him practicing in Nrl games. Go back to reserves and play that position to improve your game.
Centre is his position at the moment but his defence needs a lot of work. He gave up a few times last year. Fair dinkum he needs to take a good look at himself and work hard to get to where he thinks he already is at.

My prediction: Gus using media smokescreen of us going hard for Moses, Tigers get Moses, Adam Doeuihi released to the Bulldogs for salary and mutual agreement. Doeuihi rumour that hasn’t been mentioned once by Fox/DT. Its the way we used Dragons/Panthers to resign Martin and Hunt on overs. Could be completely wrong but just a fun thought.
Every game I seen him play he was ildisciplined. As long as he knows his job I'm ok with him for a year.

as some have said maybe AD and Simpkin for Moses ?
Yeah Douhie going to Dogs might be on the cards.
I honestly can't see the dogs being able to match us for Moses.
We get Moses, Douhie to dogs, Brooks takes a 50% pay reduction and the Eels fans lose their minds.
Moses is a must. He's the only halfback available who can kick long to space. Fair dinkum it's been out Achilles for so long.
With a decent forward pack we might get on the front foot for he first time In ages.

Win win situation for Tigers and Dogs. I think Deouihi would be an ok signing. Heaps of people on the kennel have mail on Doeuihi to Bulldogs and barely anything on Moses to Bulldogs. Looks like he could occur. Tigers are 90% in the box seat to get Moses over us.
This club was in dire straights. They then got Sheens, one of the smartest football brains in the game, to turn the club around. The professionalism is already apparent. Leaks , and silly statements have dried up, and he stated a realistic target of 2025, not 2023 or 2024. The recruitment is better, and the pathways are being worked on. This will not happen overnight. People who think that Brooks, or Douiehi will be given preference because they are juniors, are living in fantasy world. Like all succesfull clubs, if players don't perform to an optimum level, they will be replaced. This is the way forward, and thank god they have given him the green light to do the job. Mistakes will be made, but that's part of the game.
Two things I don’t care if he gives away a few penalties, if he is bashing whoever we are playing .
Second point matumua and blore have to prove themselves, brown has runs on the board the other two , haven’t done anything
Yeah Douhie would be less for the dogs so they can still improve their roster.
The only loser out of it would be the Eels. Which I won't be too worried about 😂
Yep alot of runs over a long time.
Hes on decent coin. How much would you pay for him? I imagine he's be 550-600k.
Think Benji has a big role too. Player like Moses would love to play under him because he'd be a attacking coach who brings in the players as well to develop their own brand of attack.

Both would have to be for 2024 surely? If Parra wouldn't release Steph or Papalii there is no way they will let Moses go a year early. If we release Doehi now that puts a lot of pressure on Laurie to play 5/8, with only Will Smith waiting in the wings on a T&T contract. So I can see it happening, but not for 12 months.

I would think this is for 2024. Unless Moses starts tanking again.
Both Moses and AD have contracts for 2023 and are off contact in 2024.
Really couldn't see Parra releasing Moses. However, It would be hilarious if he did sign with the WTs for 2024 then there's talk about mental health issues.

The way I see 2023 as a possibility for Moses is this scenario.
Moses has committed to Tigers for 2024 & told Eels. Eels will want to do whatever it can to keep Dylan Brown otherwise face a crisis. Tigers negotiate to take Moses for 2023 and allow Eels to offer Brown a lot more for his existing '23 contract thus maintaining him. Maybe Tigers can offer a sweetener maybe in the form of AD or Jake Simpkin.

The whole signing a year out is quite farcical. Wish it was changed to transfer windows. I would rather Moses sees his contract out; he would be front and centre of the Eels calendar and I wouldn't want Buzz being embarrassed again!
