Moses in Favour of Martin a Massive Mistake!

[cktiger]

I will bet you Martin ends up the better player. He has the personality of a champion. Moses's personality will hold him back.

I think so too, from observation real champions are humble more times than not and that's something Moses is not. As I've said before, he's similar to Benji - erratic playing style, over confidence and deluded belief in own ability. Letting go of TMM was a mistake, but only in hindsight. At the time Moses did have more of a spark and looked like a ready made superstar. Taking personality into account however you'd take Martin any day.

Good to see you both know them personally so you can make an honest judgement based on your intimate knowledge. :unamused:

**As if you've never formed opinions of players/coaches based on how they conduct themselves on the field or public eye.**

Long legs on that horse of yours.

Of course I have - but I don't pretend to know how they think or act.
Moses was told he was not wanted and then asked to go somewhere else that does want him.
Somehow that makes people that supported him a week ago blame him for all our woes past and present?

Who told Moses he wasn't wanted? They've pulled an offer (which has been sitting on in front of him for quite some time,) due to the salary cap not being confirmed and they have priorities in Tedesco and Woods. Moses then requested immediate release to take up an offer elsewhere.

Not once did they say they didn't want him. What is it you just said about pretending to know about what one is thinking about or acting?

Who's to say Te Maire wouldn't have bailed to another club for more money? You can only back your most likely prospect.

Pretty much. Moses was the most developed prospect, and it made sense to back him.

I'm not going to get up the club for that.

If I wanted to see Moses finish the season playing lock forward off the bench in NSW Cup, that would seem childish and unproductive wouldn't it?

Sigh, it'd probably send him to Parramatta a better defender.

They pulled out of an offer that had been tabled for 5 days (as has been reported) and said he was no longer a priority.
You think that would make you feel all warm and cosy and loved?
His management then requested a release - it's all out there, no need for pretending.

 

[Cultured_Bogan]

I'm not pretending about anything. You're taking a club statement and extrapolating. They said another offer will be forthcoming once the cap amount is confirmed.

 

[Twodogs]

Just imagine that WT gave Moses an immediate release. We would then be paying Farah ~$700k for 2017 to play for Souths so that we could keep Moses, only for him to be playing somewhere else **in the same year**.

Moses is utterly shameless for asking under such circumstances.

 

[Tweed_Tiger]

I hope we don't release moses unless we get a good trade from Parra, if he isn't on board just sit him in reserves.

Para forums seem to think we will release him for free in a few weeks once brooks is back on the field.

Sure and how cosy would the club have been feeling when they were sitting on offers and stating they want too know who the coach is and can we play finals and yadda yadda? they made a play it backfired and now he is having a sulk and jumping ship.

Its nothing like a marriage, a marriage has compromise and works both ways not just one way.
