No thanks to Maguire

Mbye played well against Parra on Monday.

While Maguire may have a few good games still left in him and some decent experience, We dont need this "Packer Style" contract on our books for 1 final pay day.

Our forwards are building nicely into 2022 and beyond

Thread should be play Mbye at 7 ,,,trade Brooks for someone

Can the Brooks' hate be contained to the Brooks' hate thread?

It’s not hate ...
It’s constructive criticism

Like swapping a bucket of poo for a box of poo.

Sums it up beautifully! The box would leak more crap than the bucket also because it’s porous so no thanks.
 
Mbye’s best game in the 14 jumper for us so far. Thought he tried hard and got involved. His service from dh when he was there was better and he got us going forward a few times. Whilst Simpkin is still learning i think Madge will persevere with Moses at 14.

I would be trying that this week
 
It won't hurt to bring in extra aggression, mongrel and another big body into the pack. A change and fresh start is maybe what he needs.
 
**It’s out there now’: Mbye doubles down, reveals ‘phone lit up’ after candid Tigers comments**

April 6, 2021 11:21am - by MARTIN GABOR

Wests Tigers utility Moses Mbye had no idea his honest remarks would lead to the intense scrutiny that has seen him linked with a move to a number of rival clubs.

The club confirmed that their former skipper had been granted permission to speak with other teams after Mbye was last week reported as saying the club wouldn’t be “thrilled that their marquee player is being used off the bench for half an hour a week.”

Those comments fuelled talks of an immediate release from the club he joined in mid-2018, but Mbye is surprised the story has generated so much interest, insisting he is more than happy to remain at the Tigers this season.

“It’s just been another week. I didn’t want to make as many headlines as I ended up making, but it’s out there now,” a candid Mbye told NCA Newswire after his side’s Easter Monday loss to the Eels.

“It wasn’t really weighing me down, to be honest. I tried to explain it the best way I could, and I hope it came out properly. In my mind, there wasn’t too much in it, but it obviously grew to be bigger than what I thought it would.

“The phone lit up. I let a few calls go through to the keeper, but it was mainly my mates checking in. I’ve got a really good support base and it was nice of them to check in.

“I’m committed here and I thought I got to show my commitment to the side against the Eels.”

Fittingly, the Tigers take on the Cowboys on Sunday, with North Queensland emerging as one of the favourites to land the 27-year-old’s signature should he get a release.

When asked if he had been in touch with other clubs, Mbye replied “I’ve got to keep that under wraps”.

This isn’t foreign territory for Mbye, who made his Tigers debut in Round 16 of 2018 at Leichhardt Oval – the same venue as this weekend’s clash – after Canterbury released him from his contract.

“I’ve got to experience it, so it’s nothing new to me,” he said.

“At the time it was a weird experience. But it’s all part of the game now and players are quite resilient to the fact that there’s going to be movement in player rosters and coaching. It’s crazy how the game keeps going.

“It’s a big business caught up in an endless cycle, and I don’t see it slowing down soon.”

Whatever he chooses to do next, Mbye knows he’ll have the full support of his young family who will continue to cheer on the Tigers or happily don the colours of whatever jersey he wears next.

“I’m very lucky to have a super supportive family,” he said in the Stadium Australia sheds, surrounded by his children.

“I know they just want to do what dad does, and my wife is the same. She’s always been good to me and she’s just happy to do what’s best for our family.

“I’m enjoying my time here. The club is doing some really good things and we’re heading in the right direction with some great recruits. If I end up staying here then that’s great.”

His playing future isn’t the only thing up for debate, with Mbye still unsure what his best position is. He was very good coming off the bench at hooker and as a roving middle against Parramatta, but any potential suitor would most likely want him to focus on one role.

“People have been asking me that question for six years and I still don’t know,” he said.

“I think I’ve now ticked off every position on the field. It’s allowed me to do some things that I probably wouldn’t have been able to do if I played a certain position in my career.

“A lot of people have different opinions on it, and I’ve heard that it can be a blessing or a curse to be moved around, but it’s an opportunity, and that’s the best way to look at it.”

Mbye is full of himself. Pity he can’t back it up with on field performances. He’s a dud. Bye bye and the sooner the better. I’d be watching my back with Mbye around.

probably goes to cowboys after we play them this week

If he reads the "live game feed thread" he would probably already have packed his bags
Mind you Cowboys are doing far worse
So it will come down to $ pure and simple

I think all Cowboys Manly and Bulldogs would be looking at him
 
Mbyes cross field kick brain explosion that led to Ferguson's try right on FT should never have happened. Bright spark play.
Thanks Moey...
 
I think we need Mbye this year. He's possibly in our top choice of centres but also if we have injuries he can fill in anywhere in the backline. Let's see how he lights it up against his future club this week.
