OFFICIAL Moses Mbye [Discussion]

[TIGER]

Madge can't turn around and say but but but the medical staff said.

Actually he can and did. They cleared him for to play he has no option but to trust their judgement. Are you suggesting he has a greater medical opinion than a doctor?

You also haven't answered what I asked earlier. Would you be happy if Matterson had a niggle, was cleared medically fit by the doctor and for Maguire to rule him out against the professional advice?

We'll have to agree to disagree.

So when Madges head is on the coaches chopping block, he's going to say "but the medical staff said......" Is he?

That's what I'm getting at, ultimately it falls on Madge.

@TIGER Mbye is to take most of the criticism here .. we all know our body’s and he surely knew he was not right , he alone should of made the decision especially when it was such an important game ,very selfish ! As you have stated the coach has to accept some of the responsibility here he has the final say and should of consulted honesty with Mbye!

 

[Harvey]

All someone needed to do was ask him to run at 3/4 pace and change direction a bit and they would have seen he was lame. Ray Charles would have ruled him out.

I think it was a combination of:
Mbye wanting to play and thinking he can get through
Medical staff not having time to properly diagnose the injury and thinking that they could needle the pain
Madge trusting the above and wanting to avoid blooding a rookie or reshuffling his side

Likely to miss 2 weeks.

Can’t wait to see what the make up of the team is against Manly

Mbye was no good on his first bloody touch of the ball, are you telling me Madge couldn't see that in the warm up???

Screw the medical staff, it's not their head on the chopping block if we lose and miss the 8 because we're left a player down after a few minutes.
Mbye needs a boot too for being a muppet

Agree Mbye was no good at all.
Someone on our medical staff needs to be held accountable. Madge wasn’t happy in the presser so I’m guessing he’ll be talking to them This morning.

I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone go down like that for a hip flexor strain 🤨

 

[TheDaBoss]

Time for Matterson to take Captain duty

 

[Snake]

@TheDaBoss I doubt that will happen Grandpa will be playing 😂

 

[jirskyr]

From my lounge room miles away I could tell MBye was no good,

Oh please. Lounge room diagnoses now.

All you left out was to say "Blind Freddy could see..."

You've done your best, they aren't to be reasoned with on this one.

Injuries that won’t get any worse basically no matter what happens

? Arthritic or chronic injuries don't get worse? Good to know. That must explain why Dean Young is still playing rugby league.

 

[jirskyr]

Go have a look at all the stats from that game and tell me we don’t win with Liddle coming off the bench as hooker instead of Taylor

I have no idea whether or not we win if Liddle plays instead of Taylor. If you can claim to know this, truly, then stop reading the forum, clear your mind of distractions and go focus on cleaning up the casinos and bookies with your savant capabilities.

If you saw the pre game vision of MBye, blind Freddy could have seen it, the FOX commentators even remarked he won't play

 

[Russell]

Playing tonight is quite possibly one of the most selfish acts I've ever seen from a Tigers player. You could see him hobbling down the tunnel when he lead the team out and he walked his first hit up. He should have put his hand up from the start, it looked like he knew he wasn't righr. I'm not sure if Talau was 18th man, but would have been a great time to blood him.

I've lost what little time and/or respect I had for him after that. How he is the skip and someone like Matterson isn't bewilders me.

Another black cross for Madge.
1 For making him captain to begin with.
2 For allowing him to take the field.

It was the doctors call - he said he was ok.

 

[Jock Koss]

@CarltonDry are you kidding??? It affects lower back and hamstrings, core (power) and high speed turns at pace or even contact with a solid surface to the bottom of your heel.

 

[Jock Koss]

He clearly made the selfish play & Madge preferred not to tinker at final hour!! Gee Whiz

Reminds of when a hobbling Harry Kewell made himself available for the 2005 Champions League Final. Came off the ground early which left Liverpool scrapping for most of 120 mins.
Liverpool fans haven’t quite forgotten or completely forgiven him for that.
AND they won.
Hmmpf.
