Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Why not offer Brown 1m 5yrs ( I think he's only 23) & Moses 1.2m 3yrs (29 I think) we're buying a ready made combination, have a group of young blokes on the rise.. you never know? Sounds attractive for them .. Brooks will want 850k , so will douhie.. so only a small increase that the salary cap rise will cover.. we could do worse..?

Not bad idea.

For that coin, we've got choices.

A couple of gun centres will round us out.

Add Bateman, Herbie & Moses
for '24 and we're looking like a
bit of an A-team if you don't mind.

Bro btw that track you posted zero coke
grew on me. The chorus & Skinny Brown's
verse had me feeling some type
of of way my guy haha. K-rap

 

[TillLindemann]

Moses the Dirty Tanker would struggle to make the top 8 halfbacks in the NRL, for that kind of money we should be aiming higher, plus he's a dirty tanker.

She is having some influence on me, sort of hypnotic with those hips like they all do haha........But not in politics or sports 😆

I look at it the other way; what is the cost to WTs of not signing him?

It means we can spend that money on other players. I don't really care about signing him because it's a marquee contract and another option will come along.

Really , there is only one 1/2 playing better than him and that’s Cleary , and he’s not for sale , the others are DCE is over the hill , the storm 1/2 back he also not for sale , so please let us know who u would take ????

He is the best available option. I also assume the club is offering a marquee contract but I'm hopeful it's nowhere near 1.4 million. People on her have stated it's not that much in the cap. I couldn't care less what they earn outside of the cap.

I don't want to get screwed here but we appear to have one available spot in our squad and hopefully that means Woods isn't coming.

Not having a go at you but I think your personal bias is massively playing into this.

I think a vast majority of NRL fans would rank him as, at least, one of the top 5 halfbacks in the game.

I’d personally have him in the Top 3.

Lot of money for a bloke who is a bit hit and miss

Look at the pack he played behind in the WC and he showed little

 

[Leck]

We've made some big signing mistakes over the last 4 years, but re-signing Moses will be the biggest.

WT's don't do it.

 

[TillLindemann]

You've made some outlandish claims Till....

Do you care to name 8 Better 7's playing NRL atm?

Cleary, Nicho Hynes, Cherry-Evans, Adam Reynolds, Jahrome Hughes, Ben Hunt, all better than the Dirty Tanker, and I put it to you good sir that an uninjured Jackson Hastings with that Eels team around him would have looked better than Moses The Dirty Tanker.

You make it sound like he is Thomas The Tank Engines worst enemy lol

Yes I agree my personal bias is playing into it, if I'm being honest regardless of evidence I will continue to say he's no good.

Jahrome Hughes is better
Cleary better
Reynolds is better
Hunt probably better

Moses lacks a decent mid range game ..he is either good or bad .....anyone can look good against us lol

 

[TillLindemann]

Ride that lie my man....
Gildart will come good also.

He just needs time to find his feet.

 

[Demps]

Hughes is the smartest half in the comp
Cleary, probably the most well rounded
Moses is third best, imo - has matured and has shown a lot of skill and class (at Parra) in his position.

If we can get him which I think we can/will.... he'll be a very important piece of the puzzle, leading us to finals.

If we want to win games and get to the finals to have a crack Mosses is by a mile the best half on the market. He is exactly who we should be going hard for.

 

[jrtiger]

1. Cleary
2. Reynolds
3. Hunt
4. Hughes
5. Moses
6. DCE
7. Hynes
8. Townsend

he's still far more improved on what we have. those rankings are my opinion btw

 

[Newtown]

Re herbie I think our biggest need is class centers like a farnworth or can we discover a new 18 yr old kid as good as Chris Lawrence was when he first came on the scene

He was a Wests Tiger Junior.

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Im not a huge fan of Moses for the way he carried on first time around, but to think he's not one of the top halves in the game is silly definitely top 4 or 5 id say he has Cleary, Hughes, and maybe Hynes in front of him. Imo he's on par if not better than DCE and Hunt, although hes not better than DCE in his prime which hes past now.
