The ball on Moses seems to really be in Parra's court at the moment, and they could realistically end this immediately. Parra should simply ask Moses what he wants to play for Parra. If they don't want to pay that, then the ball is back in his court to make the decision. Personally I think $1.1m is probably slightly unders given the new salary cap, but it is for 4 years (not sure if it includes this year though). I said he was worth $1.15m, but this was under a cap that is now higher than expected too.
we should put an expiry on our offer if we think we have the upper hand

The last name of page 14 of the Brisbane magistrates court listings for today will give you the name…
He is no TC. Anyone remember Top Cat?
Sorry. Been a long offseason. Forgot how to quote. This in response to Gronk.

I think you’ll find he’s already in the poo for other offences, way to throw away a promising career.

Without doing thorough analysis clubs that have a highly over paid player such as tits and drags have an out of balance roster and thusly are shit …. I hope Moses stays but I hope more that we don’t bend over and over pay him.
If he goes to the tiges on $1.3m I suspect their shitness will continue for many years to come

So Moses did the "winning comps is the main factor" bit in the media, and it got Wests to up their offer to the most ridiculous (presumably final) offer they can make.

Now he goes back to Parra, and says there's an $800K / potentially $2.1M difference here, what can you do as your final offer - maybe talk them into an off-field coaching career path in lieu of a further year etc. He'll still look silly if he takes the Tigers money and goes back on his "winning comps" statement focus....

But he and his manager have this one on a string - Gutherson eat your heart out!

On Harper, I don't think it would be that hard to guarantee him a starting centre spot, and leave Blake in reggies as injury cover, or (if he's learnt to catch) fighting with Simonssen or Russell for the other wing spot.

Backs get injured here and there, and so they'll probably all get a decent enough amount of starting games across the season.

What shits me with waqa is that he makes a mistake then looks up with this dumb look like he was hard done by instead of getting up and chasing or getting into position for the next play. He's just dumb
I call it a stunned look as in "What happened there? I went for the ball but completely missed it and now they've scored a try."
