As soon as someone quotes Buzz and player salaries, I'm thinking "what the hell would he know!"

You know if we still have that tearaway back rower we got from the Dragons mid year in cup boss?

What's the salary cap increase?
It goes up for everyone, so if Parra couldn't affort to keep Moses before they still won't be able to afford to keep Moses with the increase because the Tigers or someone will offer more. 🤪

Sorry if this has already been said but on the latest episode of the DT NRL Podcast, Buzz is saying WT have offered Moses 1.4m
Unsure if this is pub talk or not from the ol boy 🤔

In the same article, Buzz promised to reduce Electricity prices if re-erected. 🥃

Curious with Moses

Who do you reckon reached out first, Sheens or Moses?

I totally get why we would consider this, Sheens has Adam D asking for 800k. At that price, Moses comes into contention.

Moses too needs talk from another club to justify his pay packet and is fairly mercenary. Oddly Parra don't seem to have a strong commit to team culture. (I wonder if Matthew Watmough's departure taught their juniors something... just a business hey).

I kinda worry about all this. Were talking big dollars, and yes Moses is a decent player. No superstar though.

its simple .he is the only established 1/2 on the market of that caliber.its not a 100% fix it.but

Oh I think it would have been quite the ear ending exercise. But Robbie has a decent track record on this type of thing.

What’s hilarious about this thread is that almost 8,000 pages and 4 years ago, the very second post on this thread was Ink mentioning Mitch Moses. We’ve come full circle.

 

[Magpie_Magic]

Mitch has developed into a decent player and I know Benji is a fan.

But after the problems he caused us 4 years ago I'd have zero to do with him

Certainly not as many as their used to be.

And worse they close early.

Eels coming out and saying that they will not release Moses from his contract. Whether or not we manage to get him, I'm just enjoying the fact that the Eels are having to come out and deny player releases after all the times they've done it to us. Hate that scum club with a passion and hope we manage to pull it off. Regardless of my disdain for the tanker, I'm willing to put it aside so long as the Eels get shafted

That'll be up to Moses if he starts dogging it and playing the mental health card like he did when he left us. I hope he has matured the last couple of years.

 

[liltiger]

It can't just be about money, the players need to be a bit smarter, if the sum of 1.4 for Moses is correct, which I doubt, then its all good for him to take a bigger pay day but do the players realise sometimes it's better to shave some money off your salary so the club can fit another forward or back in the squad that will increase their chances for success. It's all well and good to take 1.4 mill but not if he's stuck playing with reserve graders because our caps all out of whack trying to sign him.

So your saying you would encourage him to play the mental health card to come to us, I would just to stuff Parra around 😉
