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

"Only problem is Melbourne themselves are looking for middles. That is one area they need more signings. Backs they are reletively set in so that is why a back has been mentioned.

"Great point it is two sided and all it takes is a call to RLPA and they would put a stop to it quick smart forcing a player to go to a team they do not want to.

"I think Zero Tackle has reported it wrong. NAS was on a reported $800k per year contract with the Storm. I don't believe either the Warriors or Eels would have been close to that. "
"The storm will reject a player swap that doesn't move them forward. They want to improve their team too. Don't be surprised if it ends up being lomax for money"

We obviously have planned for not having Lomax and don't need Howarth or any other 2nd rung player."

ANY MORE SIGNINGS???
I've been frustrated recently about the work we have been doing in the open market. Jonah's alright for a year and JDB is solid but he's getting old. I feel we need more in the forwards and some a replacement outside back. All I have seen is links…

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?
