Who was it saying Smith Shields from Canberra is good. Looking very lame.

True but they hardly touched the dogs with any negative stuff, and they’ve won two spoons and been down the bottom for years now!! They the media definitely have a bias

You sign Trindall from the Sharks for a quarter the money Moses is being offered

Not the worst idea. Can play.

The Souths no7 is a Balmain junior that we let walk. We don’t do much to help ourselves

Both halfbacks are better than our 7. The sad thing is Trindall is only a back up.

Re-signed with sharks.
I thought Miller went alright. At least he takes dirty hit ups. Pongha plays like he doesn't like the tough stuff and that's why he is targeted. For all his talent - and he has got bucket loads - I can see why playing with him, and coaching
him would be frustrating - especially as he is the player the club has thrown everything at.

Yeah he tries, needs alot more time at the back though.
We had the 2018 Dally M Halfback of the Year (and next Andrew Johns) in front of him.

He broke his ankle and was told that he would never be the same again so WT let him go.
I noticed that too. He was first back on the line in a long break. Maybe he is quick? But he doesn’t play with speed. As in there is limited acceleration. When moving across or to the line.

The eels forums are turning on Moses now
would be funny if both clubs withdrew their offers
Although MM does have an option in his favour for 2024 at the eels
He‘s not a slam dunk signing that ices games regularly when he has to & he’s too inconsistent generally to be your highest paid player .
other players will emerge , you just have to be smart enough to recruit them ( like nicho Hynes ) or keep & develop them in your system ( like Lachlan Ilias) ) ,
But those opportunities aren’t there if you throw all your eggs in Mr inconsistent’s basket for the next 4-5 years .

You look what DCE did yesterday. His kicking game, support play, defence and organisational skills were top shelve. He plays at this level most weeks in a team in recent times that has been up and down. He is the type of player you pay overs for. With Moses he can take a game by the scruff of the neck and dominate but it is rare and normally not when it’s really needed . Moses is better than what we have but he is nowhere as good as the price tag he has put on himself.

Issue is we put the price tag on him

I like to think of the club and the media as Laurel and Hardy. I’ll leave to others to decide who’s who, but it helps. It really does.
