OFFICIAL Moses Mbye [Discussion]

[Blocker1963]

M'Bye doesn't deserve to be in the Team, his efforts border on being poor at best, 900K not worth a quarter of that.

 

[weststigers]

With the players in the current squad, Doueihi should stay at fullback.

Apart from a shocker against Newcastle, he's been safe under the high ball which Mbye is not.

Mbye/Brooks seems the most logical combination in the halves from today until the end of the season as an experiment only.

Talau into the centres and recall Kepaoa onto the wing.

 

[nrlsurvivor]

His best spot, by far, is 14.


Our big problems are he is captain 'and' on absolute elite level money.

If he was a bench player on 300, the perception of him would be really different.

Reality is he is nowhere near worth his pay. He hit the jackpot when he signed his deal. That is not his fault, but it is crippling us and will do for a couple more seasons.

This is a genuine question. Can we not ask him to consider a pay cut for the benefit of the team? Or is the not allowed within the rules of the cap?

Sure he can take a pay cut but you’d have to extend his years of service

1 AD - best option we have
6 Mbye - god knows we pay him enough, time to get something back
7 Brooks - He is here till the end of 23, and we are paying him to play HB
9 Liddle - Pray he stays injury free, he has so much to offer

14 Grant- unless he commits to us

Mbye did stink it up at the Dogs in the halves. He not a great organiser but is quite quick and would rely on his running game which is what Brooksy does. They are both left foot kickers. I do feel that fullback is his best position but his downfall is his safeness under the highball and his kick returns which he tends to get dominated. In my opinion, he does have superior support game to just about anyone in the team, is defensively competent (forgetting last game) and has adequate passing skills for a fullback. Basically nothing to write home about but can do a job.

Mbye was a useless half. In fact, he's been average to poor in every position he has played in first grade. Centre was supposed to be his true calling, but he's proving to be useless at that too. It seems when he is moved to a new position, he plays well for a bit, then his performances horribly decay after around half a season.

His time at fullback is case in point. He was killing it there for the Dogs, and did pretty well at the back end of 2018 for us. Come 2019, he was costing us so many points through dropped high balls. Madge eventually moved to centre, where he was performing admirably. 2020 rocks up and what do you know, he's bad again.

It seems the solution here is to change his position at the beginning of every season.

Look at the problems you get when you have about 8 utility players

Doesn't take the opposition coaches long to work out his deficiencies in each position.

 

[balmain boy]

No. He just needs to be cut. He's toxic.

Matterson needed to be cut. He ran the risk of causing disharmony amongst the playing group. He was toxic. Mbye might not be worth his contract, and the club would probably be better off if he moved on, but I don’t think toxic is the word you are looking for to describe him.

Not toxic in the same way as Matterson, but in general his ultra laid back laxidasical and complacent attitude is the opposite of what he Madge is trying to establish. He's a career loser, we need to create a new culture of success, determination, grit and skill. His presence in the squad, especially due to his salary but even if he was on 200k his attitude would still need adjusting.

I have no doubt he's a professional in training but he just doesn't have what we desperately need

Hello Bulldogs han here.
Anyone remember when I was here two seasons ago warning you guys about Mybe?
Hilarious that he is screwing you guys almost as hard as he screwed us.
How long does his contract have to run?
I hope you guys have plenty of lube.

Should of listened to you dude.

 

[Harvey]

I think Mbye is a half.

He is half a marquee worth half what he is currently being paid that other clubs would only be interested in if we are paying half his salary

 

[Telltails]

Came over as a player without a position and nothing much has changed.

Is nothing great, but maybe if you still had him you would have been able to avoid the spoon this year.

I think Mbye is an imposter or worse.

I hear you guys are in the market for some solid 1st graders.

Give us Faitala-Mariner and in return you shall receive:
Mbye, J Rey, Packer, McQueen, Taylor, Eisenhuth

6 for 1 deal. What a steal

 

[tiga4eva]

We’ve made some horrendous signings. The signings of Reynolds,Packer,Matulino were all criticized by many on here when they were announced,because of the amount of money,length of contract and how injury prone they were in the seasons previous.
The 2 most disappointing for me have been Adam Blair and Moses Mbye, purely because of the amount of money they cost and the fact that we signed both at the peak of their careers and they (in my opinion) didn’t have a crack while they wore our jersey. Blair looked uninterested here and Mbye would have to be easily the most uninspiring Captain in the NRLs history. Benji, justifiably was roasted for his effort on Saturday, I was near the fence and I can assure you Mbye refused to put his body in front.
I do have faith in Madge but I seriously question how he appointed Mbye Captain and how the hell he even remains in the side.
Who’s your worst ever signing?

 

[GNR4LIFE]

I think Blair was in a league of his own.

 

[tiga4eva]

I think Blair was in a league of his own.

Woods got booed when he signed elsewhere and people were upset at how he played that out. But Blair used to get booed whenever the side was announced on the big screen before the game, it was bizarre
