If he comes - It HAS to be for Fullback. I don't think he's worth the money if you remotely consider playing him elsewhere.
Remembering Mbye has a lot of experience playing in the Halves.
I would be going 1\. Hayne 6\. Mbye 7\. Brooks 9\. Farah - 14\. Reynolds
Why does everyone push the Fullback? You have wingers like Addo-carr who score every time they are near the line.
Ingles and Hayne were most deadly on the wing, both are
I wish we could swap Hayne for Mbye. I just keep looking at Mbye thinking why did we do it.
Cmon we had the dogs, we should have pushed for Hopoate. LAST thing we need is Mbye in the halves to re-create the winning spoon combo of Reynolds and Mbye…
But, for my money. Hayne on the wing unless moving him to Fullback pushes Mbye to the bench (IMHO his best spot).

Tigers would not touch him with a 20 foot pole and rightly show. He might and that’s a big might, finds some long lost form and is probably better than most of our outside backs we have at present, but he is not the player we want moving forward
He scored 10 tries in 15 games for a team that won the wooden spoon. That's more than anyone in our team. He also had more tackle breaks than anyone in our team with the exception of Nofoaluma (77 vs 71). He was really good late in the season.
Hating him for who he is is absolutely fine, but he literally moonwalks into our backline. It's no secret we lack spark in our backline and he adds spark whilst solving our centre issue quite nicely. For the right price I think he'd improve our team materially.
Yes, for the right price he would be awesome. He is though doing it to get good coin out of Parra, he won't come here unless he gets a really sweet deal…. Aka wrong money.
We need a back. We seem to have:
Nofo
Marsters
Mbye
Fonua?
Thompson.
**PAUL MOMIROVSKI**
We definitely need a Utility back. Last year we used 3 reserves in the backs and had to use them. We really were winning early in the season when we plugged our defensive gaps and Nofo/Fonua/mbye are the biggest ?'s Then again Nofo is good at going over the line and hopefully McGuire can bring something out of Fonua.
Otherwise would be glad to play Thompson out of position in the Centers (or move Mbye there) and Hayne on our wing.
Why is he not included?
