"Get rid of him!"
"But how long is he willing to give himself? If Smith is still starting by the end of 2027 and he is extended with intent to start in 2028, what will Da Silva do then?I would love to know if Ryles intent is for Da Silva to eventually be the starting…"

I love your analogy of how TDS read his own hype and thinks he can just play and be amazing. Where Smith is the opposite where he has had to grind…"

"That's the thing for me the game got away from us when TDS came into the game.

"I'm not trying to dump on TDS. Injustice thinks he's spent too much time on the bench playing Robin to Api and now Riley, he's needs a bit of time playing Batman again "
"I personally prefer one Hooker and have a Utility that can play Hooker. Now with 6 man bench you can do that every week in case of injury.
I can see Ryles sticking with 2 but then maybe by mid year relying on one."

"Ideally, a team should be built around one hooker, a four-man forward rotation, plus an outside back and a utility.

Your best 19 vs Storm
Based on the pre-season trials, training reports, and incumbency, I’ve settled on a top 19 that largely picks itself — particularly the starting top 13, which I think is pretty much locked in.Samrani, for mine, has done enough to be locked into a…

Melbourne's Matterson offer
So it becomes more clearer, the $300k offered from Melbourne included $211,000 of that going towards Matterson's contract and $89,000 as a transfer fee. Instead of what we thought of $300k transfer fee and maybe taking Matto as well. So many felt…

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?
