OFFICIAL Moses Mbye [Discussion]

[watersider]

Not really keen on this being in the media and not sure why the club and player spoke to them about it. I'd be happy for him to go, just doesn't seem to fit anywhere for us. One option for this year anyway would be to put him in a sort of Connor Watson type lock role. I still think twal is a bit limited at lock and mbye has the right sort of skills to play there.

Agree mate

But deep down we and Moses know he’ll suck in that role too.

Yeah, I think that would prove true. It's funny, you think about his speed, defense and passing and you feel like he could be really good in a number of positions and then he just ends up not being. I at least think it would be worth trying, given Twal is just another prop and there's not really another option at lock. Not saying he'll be as good as Connor Watson, just that he could do something a little like that...in theory anyway.

Not a bad problem to have if it means the WT are 400k better off next season.

Bit of $$$ to spend. Packer gone and assuming Joey isn't getting club option picked up.

Problem is can we convince someone who's worth good money to join.... very hard to sell our club to top players, they don't want the pressure of carrying an entire club.

Off contract list around the league isn't that great either.

Yeah I thought the same but don’t think Moses likes it too much in the middle.

He goes okay @ centre but Madge has BJ, talau and Roberts ahead of him.

he hasn’t played in the halves for ages

Goes good at full back next in line to Laurie

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

At least he’s honest can’t ask for more than that still can’t see many teams lining up for him.

Most likely already has a club lined up, otherwise wouldn't be asking.

I hope you’re bloody right mate

Agree, unfortunately Mbye ain't Connor Watson:cold_sweat:

Watson is way overrated on here, imo.

There's a number of players that could take note of how you can go about things with your current club and moving on

Dear Telecrap...

Please fact check your articles..

This is behind a paywall thank god but shows everything that is wrong with RL reporting ..you can't call it journalism..

Headline Former skipper demands early exit from Tigers deal..

The former Wests Tigers skipper has asked the club for an early release from his big money deal. 👀

Fact..No release has been requested..Moses has made no demands..permission has been sought to look elsewhere for 2022.

Telecrap ..you caaaaaarn't let facts get in the way of a good story..you caaaaarn't..

For sensible take on this -read SMH version!

Wish him the best of luck. Have always found him a great club ambassador and I actually hope he gets the same chance as Corey Thompson did (with Titans) - the best possible outcome for he and his young family.

I don’t blame Mbye. Maguire is jeopardising our season by not picking the best players due to their pay packet that’s why he did not put him in the leadership group which I thought was very harsh. Mbye is a much better player than Kepaoa & should be playing in the centre’s he has played there for Queensland so surely he should be playing there for the Tigers who are a bit short of centre’s & Talau for mine has played better on the wing & should be playing in that position with Jake Simpkin on the bench. Another example is Russell Packer who really has not had that many opportunities to prove himself due to his pay packet while Luke Garner who would be on much less money is still given more chances even though his performances have not been that great for a while he did the same with Josh Reynolds overlooking him for Benji so then he would leave which is what happened. Maguire should just pick the best players he has available now & so we can make the semis.

I don't know what games you have been watching but I disagree with just about every player assessment you have made.

Mate if you think Kepaoa is a better player than Mbye I don’t know what game you are watching
All I’m saying is that Maguire wants to make room for new players & is trying to get rid of the players who are on big money which is not their fault yet they are the ones being punished with his selections it is Ivan Cleary & the club’s fault for signing them.

Mbye isn’t a winger. Mbye is barely a Center. Can’t catch the ball so no good at Fullback either. Mbye’s best position is out of the team or if I’m being generous the bench, trouble is he is a poor dummy half substitute as well. Once a few more of the NSW Cup boys are ready Mbye wouldn’t even make first 17.

It opens the door for all clubs both NRL and ESL.
Classy way to go about things.

Not like Matto or Josh chucking the sulks whilst having a deal on the side ready.

It’s about getting value for money. We care about West’s Tigers playing good football, and fixing past errors. This is just Madge correcting that.

Can you honestly say Mbye is playing to the standard of his contract?

He’s basically on origin player money

 

[jadtiger]

There is no doubt that M'Bye is being paid far more than his real value,however that is not his fault and appears to be trying to do the right thing by our club.
If he does move on at the end of the year i would hope we would not be paying part of his new contract though unfortunately this would be unlikely.As far as the rubbish the murdoch media spew out it is exactly what i expect as it is agenda and lies from page 1 to the last page.
