Wasn’t he the next Thurston lol now he will plod for the remainder of the season
The second he was gifted a big money contract based on the potential for him to be good, that potential went down the tube, because in all honesty Mbye seems not to give a shit about anything. He is something of a passenger. If he has a good game thats a circumstantial thing. If he has a shit game thats also circumstantial. If he had the desire to be among the best players in the game he could be among those origin hopefuls. As it stands he's occasionally an exciting player if the ball bounces right for him.
Another cancer cut from this club. Tigers will regret this, the guy is a dud of the highest order.
Hopefully Woods is next followed by Foran who looks like he will die of old age before his contract expires.
Agreed about the cancer being cut. The sad thing is that either he's delusional enough to think he's actually a big contributer, or he's just a better self promoter than a footballer. Either way his departure from the club means that we're one step closer to building a squad that will try to compete.
Bum chums back together again
I still can't believe dogs fans applauded Reynolds as he ran on for the Tigers. Are we going to do the same for Mbye???
What Reynolds lacked in talent he more than made up for in his desire to win for us. Mbye pretty much achieved all his goals in the game when we started paying him like an established star. He never had to become an established star and now that he's leaving for marquee money he will never have to establish himself as a star.
Does anyone know what the figures are? And what we are going to do cash we save? i.e who are we signing. Please be either Barba or Norman. Hopefully both.
If we find three or four players that have a desire to be stars and win games at least one of them will probably make up for a gifted athlete who only wants to take the field and fulfil his contractual obligations while not breaking a sweat.
Andrew Hill ... another lieing full of shit CEO.... Wonderful.
Can't one of these slimey ***** actually just speak honestly??
I got the impression from what he said that we weren't actively shopping players around, but we probbly informed some of them that if they were able to negotiate deals that would allow us to piss them off without it costing us an arm and a leg we would not stand in their way.
Regardless of whether Hills statement was entirely bullshit, It's just my opinion that Mbye will coast through every season bar the one when his contract expires and do the bare minimum. Even if we're paying some of his contract out, this is a good result for the club if it means we can pick up a slightly more talented group of youngsters than $100k would buy that actually want to play good football. As far as I can see Mbye was only ever keen to make good money. If he was capable of making the same type of money for knitting, he'd be sitting next to a fire with a ball of wool right now.
