"For 5/8th, the question is really what if the Eels had Jason Smith paired with Mitchell Moses not Dylan Brown? Does Brown still take #6 if the halves combination is considered?"
" Tim Smith.... what could have been"
"Obviously Jacob Arthur, with Chris Sandow or Daniel Mortimer a close second and Mitchell Moses a Smokey for third place?"
"Cheers LB. I just can't go past him, the only 5/8 on that list to play for Australia and multiple times, back in the 2000's he was one of our best players, i'd say he could even be second to the great Brett Kenny for us."
"Yeah fair call, that was a miss by me, thank you for mentioning BE. If any others want to vote Smith i am happy to include it here?"
"All good Hector. The likes of Grothe, Price, Kenny, Sterling etc. would make it that up to 4 surveys are null and void as we know who they are. "
" Bret Kenny by a mile but out of the 1's on the list Michael Buettner"
"Sorry LB , i find this position that i just can't vote. Leaving out Jason Smith who meets the 1998 criteria is a mistake in my opinion. He would be my first choice, Still played for Australia in 2000 as an Eel."
"Well that's a poor excuse LB . Just taking the piss bud . But me and Pops being old farts we have our old favourite players that we were fortunate enough to see win the four premierships just hope the people that have yet to no what it's like . Get…"
"I haven't written Jr as I want to save time and move on. I thought people would understand the difference of Grothe from Modern Era tag."
"This is 1998 onwards, NRL era. If all time I don't even do survey as Kenny Gets it."
"Well I don't see junior after his name on the list"
"Junior got named not senior for Grothe.
That is why I prefer modern day discussion as it is someone other than Kenny it would be a quick survey"

"It's Grothe Junior Poppa, this is modern day. 1998 onwards."

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?
