Signings, Suggestions & Rumours Discussion

Its pretty funny seeing people not wanting Moses over what happened in the past. Reminds me a lot of some members who used to keep the whole "that player doesn't belong here because he has been naughty and doesn't uphold the magnificent standards of our club" vibe. Worked pretty well resulting in more than a decade of absolute mediocrity.
I didn't ever want Isaac Moses to be dealing with our club again either(In fact I think at the time i said none of the 3 players should ever put a foot on leichhardt again) but he has some pretty handy players on his books. So what choice does it leave? We play in a competition, the whole objective is to win.
Mitchell Moses has gone on to become a very good player. He ticks a lot of boxes we need covered and we instantly become a much better side if he is in it. Those are all facts.
I hope we get his signature, It will speed up our path back to the 8 and get us winning far more football games. After all, the only reason the club is in a competition, is to compete and hopefully win.

I was guilty of that in the past. I just want the best here now.

I'd have taken Hitler, Stalin and Mao if they could've played.
 
We have secured some solid players in this off season
Klemmer , API , Ice
these 3 make a team much different and Mitch would know it , Parra for me have missed the boat and lost players of quality , we have purchased quality and are back on the boat , top 8 for us Parra to miss it and run 9 th mosses knows which team will head north on ladder

You do realise that what we're offering Moses is the same % of the cap that Brooks is taking this season....
Still plenty of room for big money players ..

STAR'S SACRIFICE FOR FAMILY​

Alex Seyfarth has given up the opportunity of a lifetime - for his unborn child.

The rangy forward is coming off contract at the Tigers at the end of this year and is no certainty to get a new deal.

The Warriors last week offered Seyfarth a lucrative three-year deal starting in 2024.

At 24, it was a great opportunity for Seyfarth, but he knocked it back because his wife is pregnant and they want to stay near family support in Sydney when the baby is born.

There are things in life bigger than football, and the Warriors understood Seyfarth's decision.

And Bateman. He is the one that will give us some steel in the middle.

Honestly, kinda wish he had taken it because we might have been able to ship him early and create a spare spot. but good for him for putting family above advancing his career.

Hopefully this doesn’t lead us into signing him out of guilt. If I was that guy I would signed up straight away. Get a nanny. Pretty sure he could afford one. Get the parents to come over. My wife is from Brazil (oh behave!), and we’ve had no help at all with my little Tito’s.

Bottom line - don’t resign Seyfarth. Plus, this also has me doubting how intelligent he is. What an idiot.

At the risk of going wildly off topic, I think there is a pretty big difference - there certainly is for me. I don't like how Moses left the club but I'm sensible enough to realise that it's a business and he was doing what he felt was right for him. He could have handled it better, but whatever: if he can help us win in future we'd be daft not to explore re-signing him.

Players with bad off-field records is different. It depends what the offence(s) is/are and I'm generally inclined not to care too much about young blokes doing stupid stuff when they get pissed up once in a while. But my membership money goes towards these people's wages, and I don't want to be funding - for instance - wife beaters. And actually, yes, if the price of on-field success was turning a blind eye to that sort of thing I'd rather not pay it. Call me a bleeding heart but we all have to draw a line somewhere, and that's mine.

“Me and Brooksy speak a lot, we’re best mates,” Moses said. “We speak all the time about everything. We’ve had a few conversations, me and Brooksy. My full focus this year is on Parramatta.

“Hopefully we get something sorted before the start of the year … You see all the talk but it hasn’t really come to me, I haven’t had to think about that side of it yet.”

I’m certain he’s coming back now.

I remember quite a few NBA players like AD would say things like that “I’m fully committed to the Pelicans this year” and then the next year AD “That’s all folks”
