Posted today, i believe the article was yesterday but our man staying in the news.
💯

He wasn't becoming a hindrance, he is a hindrance.
 
So in that article he's pretty much just reaffirmed what a slacker he had become at this club - was happy to be the marquee player on big money and try to be the star initially....but when it got tough he just milked on by.
By no means will he go down as one of the worst in ability, but for dedication and attitude to play for this club he frikin stinks, hard. good riddance.
 
Packer Signing was much worse.
Good luck to Moses he left without kicking stones and spoke well about the Club and Madge
At 450k he is a good price for St George
 
Mbye has proved he is a classy individual.

Best of luck in 2022 in all but 2x Games (Against the Tigers of course)

Moses Mbye - AAP
Moses Mbye has revealed he is leaving Wests Tigers to give the club more salary cap space after admitting he hadn't lived up his hefty price tag.

Mbye was released from the final year of his Tigers contract on Tuesday, signing a new two-season deal at St George Illawarra starting in 2022.

That deal is worth significantly less than the $800,000 he was signed for by the Tigers in 2019, and while the Tigers will pay part of his salary next year a cut will come in 2023.

It came as a frank Mbye on Tuesday made a stand for embattled coach Michael Maguire and confirmed he wanted to help him free up cap space by moving on.

"I've been around the game long enough to understand that how it works," Mbye said.

"You don't want to be a burden on the club.

"I came up to this club with huge expectations under different management and I had huge expectations of myself.

"Unfortunately on-field performances have been underwhelming at some stages.

"I honestly think that it's fair for Madge (Maguire) ... to be able to put together his team, put together the roster he requires to win games.

"I always said if I had the opportunity to go to a club where I'm seen as one of those guys that they need to win games then I'd take it."

The move comes after the 28-year-old and Wests Tigers agreed in March he could look elsewhere, with the Dragons always the likely destination.

Mbye said he'd been motivated to make the switch after watching high-price Ivan Cleary signings Josh Reynolds and Ben Matulino wiped from the salary cap, with Russell Packer also gone this year.

"I've got a lot of respect for Madge as a guy and a coach. He wears his heart on the sleeve and he often gets a bad rap," Mbye said.

"But I have been living with the guy for the last month up here (in the Queensland hub) and his heart is in the right place. He wants his club to go in the right direction.

"I think by gaining a little bit of salary cap space for him and also without hindering my career it's a no-brainer."

After Mbye floated between fullback, centre, five-eighth and utility, he expects to have a similar role filling gaps as youngsters develop at the Dragons.

But he does have aspire to return to his best, with less scrutiny on him than during his time at the Tigers.

"When you get paid close to a million dollars a year there's going to be a big expectations," Mbye said.

"I'm not that marquee guy anymore so I can go down there and give myself the best opportunity to put my best foot forward.

"And you never know I might be that marquee guy again one day."

his defence was sound

Wow.
Could you set the bar any lower.
You must think Nofa's a defensive dynamo.

Can you say that anyone in our team's defence is sound?

But more importantly, I feel he let us down in the middle when he played hooker/lock but at centre and fullback, I felt very safe.

WTF? At centre and fullback Moses continually positions himself so he can't make a tackle or have to put his body on the line. He leaves huge holes inside him at centre leaving the team hanging

A good bet is that a goal kicking St George centre will replace him.

He also actively avoids running kicks back wherever possible

He’s a good politician and about as truthful.

So, who are the new players besides the English boys, is the club going to sign for 2022?

That's a damn good question and right now I'm not confident of landing anyone the way things are going. The club has been punched from pillar to post in the media this year and I reckon there would be a few players taking note of that.

**"You don't want to be a burden on the club.**

Admirable of him to admit to his under-performance, however, whether he had stayed or we pay part of his salary next year and he goes, one thing won't change - he will still be a burden on the WT.

Never thought of it like this…thanks for tilting my perspective!
 
His attitude makes me sick

He gave up a long time ago when he first said "WTs haven't got value from me"

A pro with a shred of integrity wouldn't even think this let alone utter it publicly... Work harder... Keep working harder and then work even more harder... Don't just come out with a pissweak excuse that gives you an out until you find another gig

Too many today had his attitude... Walking, the other guy can do it.... It's fine when it's easy but when it all gets too hard

I'm just about done

Pathetic, pea hearted pretending losers

This just sums up my thoughts clearly.
I read it as if I wrote it myself.

Can cut out Mbyes name and add Nofo, Brooks, anyone's really and it still rings true.

Yep, he’s a major problem and setting a bad example for the young blokes. Can’t wait to see the back of him.
