MBYE

[tig_prmz]

mmm BYE

not a fan of how he plays and not really sure of what his role in the team as a captain is. the two try saving tackles a couple of weeks ago- in real time they didn't even look that good

Even though we're travelling OK, I'd be willing to try Mbye in the centres with Fonua outside and Thompson at fullback.

Probably doesn't matter but having three left footers in the spine seems a little odd.

To have a differing opinion from others gets you branded a "hater".
Nobody hates Mbye, just questioning his performance. He is bog average in attack and gets a pass mark for his defence.

I'm sorry to say he is just a slightly better Lolohea.

I think we're forgetting how truly awful Tui was.

Agree, Lolohea was bitterly disappointing.

Lolohea..... was a quite a piece of work......... he sucked

@TheDaBoss **LOL**ohea....only good thing he did was kick the winning goal in Round 1 2018 against the Rowters

Don't you mean Sloslohea

Any truth he and Andrew Fifita own a KFC store now

Really was Owen Craigie Mk II - so much talent and just couldn't keep turning up.

Lol @ the whingefest . Mbye will play origin in the next few years . You are all just looking for a scapegoat , like MWZ last year . Oh and Jordan Rankin in other years . Oh and Adam Blair in years before that . Oh and Daniel Fitzhenry . Ohh and John Morris . Blah blah . Here’s the deal . At that elite level . The bounce of a ball, a minor lapse , a decision to try To score with the ball inyour right instead of your left . Can be the difference between a win and a loss . and Melb are Notorious for forcing those lapses to be the difference .

You lost all integrity when you said Mbye will be in origin.

Whoooooops...

 

[momo_amp_medo]

Im sorry but this bloke just doesn't cut it.

Crucial errors every game that really cost us. Last night he murdered a try by ignoring a clear overlap, did his Darius Boyd impersonation to let in the match winning try and where the hell was he when the bomb went up for that soft try??


His positioning is dead set awful and costing us, the difference between the fullbacks last night was like chalk and cheese.


And tell me Corey Thompson wouldnt go better, at least he puts his body on the line and gets in position.

Nofa back on the wing, Thompson FB and Mbye 14 and im happy.

Looks like he is cutting it with some well placed expert selectors.

I don't take it back. This rivals Jamie Buhrer as one of the worst origin selections ever.

 

[Danny Blanco]

Less snake oil salesmen
More Captain/ leader plz

 

[supercoach]

Madge rates Mbye very highly and basically said in a interview that the fans are not seeing what he is really doing for the team.
Anyway if Madge is backing him that will do me as he is the first coach in a long time that will make hard decisions no matter who the player is..ie Packer and Taylor

His value to QLD is that he can play anywhere in the backline or hooker. He isn’t great at any of them though. If he was our number 14 he probably wouldn’t cop so much flack but he is on good money as a starting fullback.

 

[fibrodreaming]

@Bones said in [MBYE](/post/1015811):
>...... but he is on good money as a starting fullback.

Possibly, but how much freight are the Dogs paying ? He could still be a good value for money proposition for us.

 

[LARDS]

@Furious1 we are paying like 450 for him , the dogs are picking up the rest . If the average NRL wage is 305k . Are you saying he is not worth 145k above median ? Of course he is .
Here’s another 1. If teddy RTS and Boyd are on over 1mil . are you saying that it’s not good business for a , borderline origin player to be on 450k ? . Or if you allocate 3.2 mil for your spine . (That’s 800k each ) that it’s also not good business to have him on 450k.
None of you haters are thinking about this logically

Can we please stop referring to Mbye as a borderline origin player.

I agree.
He's not borderline anymore.
Rip in Moses!
