Moses Mbye is on Friday expected to finalise a mid-season switch to the Wests Tigers, but not before a final farewell for Canterbury against the Gold Coast Titans at Belmore Sportsground on Saturday.

NRL.com understands Mbye, who is reluctantly departing the Bulldogs to help ease the club's salary cap predicament, has finally agreed to make an early switch to help the Tigers in their pursuit of finals football in 2018.

The release documentation is expected to be formalised on Friday.

Mbye had signed a four-year deal with the Tigers from next year, however, it's in the Tigers and Bulldogs' best interest for Mbye to switch clubs before the June 30 trade deadline.

While the Tigers boost their hopes of playing finals football, the Bulldogs get the chance to begin forward paying 2019 contracts to help their dire salary cap situation.

Mbye was reluctant to leave the Bulldogs prior to the end of the season out of loyalty to his teammates, however, there has been mounting pressure on the fullback to make the change immediately.

He is expected to play his final game for the Bulldogs against the Gold Coast Titans at Belmore Sportsgound on Saturday, however, an injury could throw a spanner in the works.
His Bulldogs teammate, Aaron Woods, was expected to join the Cronulla Sharks this week, however, the two clubs haven't been able to reach an agreement over the portion of Woods' contract they will pay.

Does anyone think the Bulldogs are going to cause themselves some long term pain with the direction they are heading

How could anyone trust them to keep a single commitment

Now there trying to medically retire For an without cause. What a joke. I have no sympathy for them. Hope they get the spoon.
 
I dont expect Mbye to turn our fortunes instantly
But getting him here for the remainder of the season sets us up to hit the ground running next year
And with a few more signings to come we are looking good

But before we get to far ahead we are still in with a shot of finals this year
Well done on your work Ivan

Yep - Mbye to fullback and Farah to hooker. Two problem positions sorted for the year - maybe.

It's honestly better than we could have ever hoped for. The season is not dusted for us. We are right on Brisbane's coat tails for 8th and we shouldn't throw it away. Not solving the 1 and 9 issue is tantamount to throwing it away. Mbye and Farah are amazing gets at this point of the year tbh.
 
Good stuff.
Thank God we finally have a someone playing for us while being payed by another club. Nice for the shoe to be on the other foot for once.

Surely the Dogs would still have massive salary cap issues even after releasing Mbye too?

Foran medically retired might save them.

A positive of Foran retiring could be means Sharon can stay at the dogs and collect his spoons.

I don’t think that Dogs insurance company is just going to cough up their money as easily as they think.
Remember they have long pockets and short arms when it comes to paying insurance claims.
Foran’s injuries were pre existing before he signed with the Dogs.

The Dogs need to employ Brydens for a full payment…Insurance specialist.
 
It'll be devastating if we receive damaged goods should Mbye get injured in his last game. Could be just our luck. I'll be watching the game in anticipation of him getting through without any worries

Apparently Doc, there is a clause that if he gets injured today then the Tigers don’t get him until next year.

He has a medical with us on Monday.
