Mbye's strength in theory is his running game, he made 6 runs last round compared to Frawley's 11, those numbers are backwards on what logic would suggest. He should be running more, trying to set up plays less, and kicking almost never (not sure his kicking game is good at U20's level let alone FG, its closer to a U10's level)
For the year, he has made less runs than almost any other player in the team who is playing regularly (notable exception being Lichaa who has taken less, won't kick him for it because I assume we are letting him go already for his performance). Ben Roberts was a better ball runner based on the evidence available, so not sure Mbye is a running #6 either, but he should at least be giving it a go. He isn't a big tackling player so a running #9 would be his selling point, or, if there was a thought to him trying out FB, being in support and running the ball is 100% what he'd be doing, there is nothing stopping him doing that right now, he just doesn't do it a whole lot. He also tops the list for missed tackles so far this year, so marking him as our replacement to Lichaa next season defensively is a worry.
For me, the best position for Mbye would be somewhere in NSW cup once Reynolds is back, he seems to have got caught up in his media last year and maybe could use a wake up call. Worst case scenario there, he could serve as a expensive reminder to the club on why its a good idea to base recruitment on achievement and not hype.
