Well done Mitch Moses so there is still loyal players out there, thanks for putting team before a bigger pay cheque.

"They used to call it contact football years ago Coryn. Came back in for a while in the late 70's. I'm surprised it is not used as much now although Parra's champion backline used it as a version in the 80's. Just wasn't always big forwards, just…"

"Haven't seen enough of him since he came over from qld and yet to play for eels themselves. The Aussie schoolboy game isn't enough to give a proper opinion. But for now I think he is below Popo and Talagi, especially if you looking at 2027 "
"The try where May him and Haas combined is exactly how you eliminate numbers in the tackle.
Going to the line in numbers with potential short pass means defenses can't just jump the ball carrier.That's exactly the way to beat physical sides and you…"

"He has good leg speed and can hit a hole. Easily his best two attributes. Defensively he looks gassed quickly. Hope we didn't pay much because losing him wouldn't have hurt us"
"Trade him for Marzhew"
"Good news "
"Newcastle potentially could be club interested in his services ;

* need some experienced forwards."

Did a blog get deleted
I was writing a reply and it seems a blog was accidentally deleted. Surely an accident as previous receipts were allowed so thought it just ongoing discussion All that time wasted writing his receipts, getting screenshots and replying to people as…

Poppa's Corner: Junior, Moses, and Lomax: What Goes on Tour, Stays on Tour.
Just some observations. Junior inspired playing for Samoa yesterday. Have you ever seen him so fit? Of note, was he was also wearing the 13, presumably playing lock. The last time he wore a 13 in the NRL was...never. Not that long ago there was much…

I haven't seen anything official, and even if he does resign, he's not doing it out of any sense of loyalty, he's doing it because it is the best thing for him, as he should.
Sometimes showing loyalty and having a sense of loyalty is the best thing for a person. Obviously not at the expense of commonsense and within reason.
Look, I'm not saying that a player being loyal to his club is wrong, I think its fantastic. It shows we are building a club that players want to be loyal to.
That is a good thing.
I just don't like people expecting players to be loyal.
"I just don't like people expecting players to be loyal."
Yes Brett --same could be said about people expecting players to go for the paycheque alone. Lots of variables to consider in what is the best fit for individual values. Some things money simply can,t buy.. For Moses in HOE,s blog he had no hesitation in saying the premiership trophy with Parra was his only goal.
Much easier decision to make when your playing for the club you supported as a kid. Not many players have that luxury.
Great to have him on board.
To be fair Gordo he had no other genuine option.
The Broncs was no real option, could have wrecked his career.
Hed have had to move everything and carry the weight of a club in termoil, would have fucked him.
He looks happy here and has a lot less pressure here, not worth a few hundred k to take a huge gamble like that.
He wasnt going anywhere.
What is this blog about?
What has Moses supposed to have done?
