The Kennel is at DEFCON 1 :laughing:
Mbye is now being compared to Ben Roberts :roll

Absolutely right….Kennel has imploded and almost every single player is getting slagged off....
but on another interesting note one of them on another thread was bragging he had been to prison.... 😱pen_mouth: 😱pen_mouth:

How are they comparing to Roberts?

Roberts was $%#*
Mbye is no better

:roll

Pretty typical of any fans reaction when players move on Can see similarities to when we lost a few last year. Hero to zero in an instant. If he stays hope for his sake he puts in some decent performances or he is going to get hammered.

Got him for about the same price we paid Brooks

Good footy business , welcome to WT's Moses , time to live up to your Biblical name sake

What monetary figure do you have for Mbye?

About 500-550 k first two years

Yeah that's what I was told .
You reckon brooks would be on that ?
I doubt it .

Brooks contract was $500K a season.
 
Cleary has just completed our spine for the next 4 years. 1\. Mbye 6\. Reynolds 7\. Brooks 9\. Liddle. Tui becomes the utility back from ISP.
Marshall will retire into a role with the WT.

We need to sign a gun edge backrower, back up hooker, back up prop and back up centre or two.

If we can get a hooker and edge forward this year we will get a top 8 position.

Just cant see Reynolds lasting another three years, still not convinced that Mbye is a longterm fullback, and Liddle - can see it, but he has got to be able to sustain it.
But if it works, then Ivan has done well.

100%
I don't think that's a sustainable spine.

Josh Reynolds is very broken…
Rather see something like...

1\. Mbye
6\. Brooks
7\. Cleary
9\. Liddle

If Liddle is too injury prone, recruit Liicha or Matt Parcell.

Can Josh Drinkwater play hooker?

We need a strike centre to pair with Marsters as top priority.

Fonua?

Doesn't pass to his winger tho.
 
Definitely a cleary type signing.

- not a superstar (star of the team is the team)
- speaks well and is a team player
- good trainer
- value for money
- is established, but still has upside.

Tick, tick, tick.

He does offload to anyone nearby tho…..

Yeah, I noticed it's always the inside and never the outside…

Just something worth keeping an eye on.

Didn't pass to Corey at all the other night.
I paid close attention because I had money on Corey getting a double and felt there was a couple of moments Fonua could've really set him up for that second try but chose to run or pass inside.

Not hating tho! Just saying...

This!!!
 
I'm not the greatest Mbye fan, think he's massively overrated by people. I suppose he's still young to go with the 4 yr deal so that plausible.
And if he were to come over this season I do believe he or Tui could play right centre I reckon. Moving Marsters to the backrow….. Thoughts

Marsters is about to become the NZ rep centre.

He is probably the best centre we have at the club.

Why would we move him into a position he isnt conditioned for?

Yeah understand your questioning but I think what this team needs is more speed out wide. I'm a great fan of Esan and think his career will eventually be in the second row. And its not foreign to him and he's a unit as well with ball skills. He just sux at kicking goals tho.
