OFFICIAL Moses Mbye [Discussion]

[Cairnstigers]

Just saw a grab for nine news saying Mbye is stepping down from the captaincy.

You can't be captain if your not on the field
Here comes Laurie

 

[JD Tiger]

I have one word in response to that - good.

Whats the odds the media will slam us over this, somehow...

Well think most fans that support the WT's saw that coming once Tamou was signed. Leadership needed to change on field from a proven performer was a no brainer as Mybe inspired no one with his performances last season.

He still adds utility value and depth whilst still here on contract especially if we don't get Laurie or there are injuries. Another great off season decision WT's.

I think it's good that Mbye is the one to announce this publicly, rather than via a club announcement of Tamou getting the captaincy and Mbye stepping down.

professionally handled it would appear

They’ll quote Mbye saying “I just saw myself on the news stepping down and can’t believe I wasn’t consulted by club!”....

Stepping down ?
Or pushed aside

They said stepping down saying he will tell 9 news exclusively why. I wouldnt mind betting he's been told he's getting pushed aside for Tamou.

He's been pushed aside, decision was made prior to Christmas.

we all probably assumed that but letting him come out and say he's stepped down allows him to save face. He wasnt much of a captain anyway he didnt seem to have the required qualities. Anyway its on shortly so we will know what the spin is.

 

[Wounded_magpie]

He has a nice shiner

 

[Coastie_Tiger]

Well there we have it for the good of the team ie pushed aside.

 

[Geo]

Will make him a better player..

 

[frullens]

Im in Melbourne so cant watch
What did he say?

 

[mike]

Stepped down. Too funny, tapped on the shoulder as soon as Tamou was confirmed. Mybe the fake captain is no more, thank goodness.

 

[avocadoontoast]

Thought he handled himself well. Hope he has a good year.

You know what annoys me - when I pay for my membership they tell me I will here all the news first as a member and then stuff like this gets annouced on Channel 9 news

As for Mbye I think he did a better job then many make out and just because the quality of the squad is low doesent make someone a bad Captain. Think it did however effect his form so hopefully he strikes back and has a great year
