Personally think this is a great signing. Mbye has proven to be an average half but looks extremely promising at fullback. Absolutely dangerous when he runs, can ball play due to his time in the halves, and provides a solid third kicking option. And he also kick goals. Basically everything we've been looking for in one player.
The only sticking point is price. If his contract is 950k for the next few years and Dogs are only paying 250k then we're paying 700k which is marquee money. Would've been very happy if it were 600k but 700 seems like overs. Still an awesome signing though!
Curious to know how much we're paying in his third year since his contract won't be subsidised…

The article if true says his salary next year is 800k and the dogs are paying 250k of it. It's similar money to Brooks which is a bargain.

Sorry, I read earlier that he was being paid $1.9 million over the next two years. If you guys are right then it's an absolute steal!

Woods isn’t welcome here. I never liked him even when he was here

As they have been chasing a fullback, and his shift to fullback has shown that he’s a vey good one,…...and we don’t have a really good one with loads of speed, is there a slight chance that he could just maybe play Fullback,
I know it’s a long shot, but my money’s on that :smiley:

Seems obvious, but the side we named in round one was nothing like we thought it would be over the summer.

If he’s not better than Lolo, who hasn’t played good enough to nail a position with the Warriors and then us. Why would we bother to buy him.
Going on his form as the fullback in the Dogs side, he is a much better than LoLo,
And Happy won’t have to guard his pies when he’s around
The only downside is that when I saw the heading on this thread, most of the heading was obscured,
And all I could see was “Wests Tigers sign Moses”.
I thought I was having a nightmare.

I don't know, we'll have to consult the forum nickname police first.

Mitch is well on the way to dismantling Parramatta on their way to the spoon. We need types like his ans Aaron well away from here. As for Mbye he might like our culture so he may improve further. At that price its a bargin.
Wouldn't mind Jimmy the jet with us and Marty back.
That would do.

Marty has too many dumb mistakes in his game for my liking. Again on the weekend he was getting gang tackled on the first hit up and he was looking to offload and knocks it on close to his own goal line. You just can't be making mistakes like that.
A lot giving it to woodsy and rightly so, but if he was offered back at a cheap rate, with someone else paying half his money and he wasn't the captain, I'd probably take him back. He might speak like a nong and look like a loafer, but numbers don't lie. I'd never say never.
Why do people always think it would be good to get someone at a cheep rate…if you were buying a Porche would you only pay the price of a GoGo mobile..doesn't happen..
On Woods as Maz says to Rhey..'the people you seek are never coming back'..
People do realise who we playing today right..

A players ability on the field doesn't change because he gets paid more or less money then what he thinks he is worth
And it shouldn't
You only need to look at the worst made signings list that include
Jack Bird Bryce Cartwright
They are only worth a GoGo mobile
Woods is not better in his current form IMO
He just doesn't seem to have the impact you would expect from a marquee signing
Woods and the phrase "numbers don't lie" seem to be going hand in hand lately…
Yeh he's a stats man. 100% flopper.
Also the movie waterworld got poor reviews... Still an amazing movie to me.
Woods is a dud. No two ways about it. Pillow of the highest calibre and has been over rated for so long.
Big for nothing goof.

Woods reminds me of Michael Bevan ie. my stats are more important than the team.
Yes Aaron your stats are impressive, but your teams don’t generally win. And you are a major contributor.
This is a guy who wouldn’t commit and contributed to off field drama and uncertainty and then finally signed elsewhere.
No. Taking him back is a step back for us.
Don’t look to the past IC.
