OFFICIAL Moses Mbye [Discussion]

[Tim Sheens]

He's on the bench.... The milf would offer them more... Remarkable... Shades of Ross Conlon, but at least Ross had one real talent

Think the ability to handle the 9 jumper is the key and especially with question marks on Hunt as well.

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...

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

 

[WeHaveCheeKam]

Cause Mbye did such a good job controlling the ruck vs Parra.

I am so perplexed by this selection. All the people on the radio the other day were nicely saying they couldn't believe he was an option.

Anyway hope he kills it and comes back a better player.

 

[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

 

[Bones]

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.

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!

 

[jirskyr]

Maybe because they've played Milf before and he's as reliable as a Fiat.

 

[Goanna57]

@Black-n-Orange Looks like your the oe on drugs

 

[Goanna57]

[Matto]

[innsaneink]

Yeh legible

If they worried about the 9 .....start with McGuire and let Hunt play the final 60 minutes

If they plan on Mbye playing 9 .....his defence in the middle of the ruck would worry me

But apart from that I think that both NSW and Qld have 16 out of the 17 right

NSW concern is not having an extra prop ....I understand Fittlers thought process with the extra mobility in the middle 3rd ....but SOO is refereed far differently than your normal NRL game and Qld will slow the play the ball down which will negate the major advantage NSW have in Cook getting out of dummy half on the back of quick play the balls

 

[Matto]

I hope Mbye put's on a real show so us Tigers fans have something to look forward to heading into the 2nd half of the season.....if he can play well for Maroons, he can play well for Wests Tigers.
And no, i'm not a Queenslander

Slater has been working with him and Ponga, that cant hurt.

 

[Madge]

Ponga and Mbye have both been working very closely with billy slater throughout the maroons camp.

Poor MBYE and Pongo..imagine having to listen to that grub bang on about how good he was 24/7..
