I don’t really care about the Tigers and their planning for 2024 if he chooses to stay with us
Actually, rheed then realised how important last year was and he showed alot of passion and enthusiasm.
Joe Chan is Alex Chan's young feller I believe. At least 6 of that squad have dads who played first grade. Is Tepai still with the Storm's?
Not with that attitude
This is why you get paid the big bucks OA.
Also Joey Tramontana, Austin Dias, Reimis Smith, Jordan Grant and Daniel Tupou. I believe we recruited Erin Clark back in the day but he never got on the field for us. Must’ve been homesick or upset we didn’t have a Tarsha Gale team.
Did he bold those quotes or was that you?Comps not cash driving Mitchell Moses’ big contract call
The most in-demand playmaker on the open market, Eels halfback Mitchell Moses, is about to make the biggest decision of his career.www.smh.com.au
Actual Moses quotes (no commentary):
“I want to win a comp. Simple as that,” Moses said. “Speak to any other players and they want to win a comp, that’s all I’ve wanted to do since I started playing footy at four years old.
”We were close last year. I can take some lessons out of that, and I want to win the comp. Simple as that.”
“Definitely I want to get it sorted before the season starts,” he said. “I’ve definitely handled things better and my management has been outstanding in that aspect, they have allowed me to focus fully on footy.
“I’ve handled the talk about it [better]. I’ve blocked everything out, my management worries about those things. It allows me to focus on Parramatta and train good here, not come to training and be affected by what’s going to happen.
“I haven’t felt any pressure. I’ve handled it a lot better than in the past, you learn from those past negotiations and contract talks. Whatever happens, happens, I guess.”
“Me and Brooksy speak a lot, we’re best mates,” Moses said. “We speak all the time about everything. We’ve had a few conversations, me and Brooksy. My full focus this year is on Parramatta.
“Hopefully we get something sorted before the start of the year … You see all the talk but it hasn’t really come to me, I haven’t had to think about that side of it yet.”
“He’s been outstanding, Baz,” Moses said. “I’ve never had a halves coach who is so calm, he’s really narrowed my game down a bit. Having Hodgo [new hooker Josh Hodgson] there is massive with his experience and leadership, he’s been big for my game as well.
“Me and Baz, I have a convo with him probably every day about what we are going to do. I love talking footy, he loves talking footy, he’s just been perfect. Hopefully we can replicate what we’re trying to work on here in the season.”
Tepai extended last year.
