Funny how all the other forwards get the ball apart from mose isn't it. I seen robes take the ball himself twice when walsh wanted it so it's not just poor mose that robes is picking on.

Thats absolutely correct other forwards will get more ball because Mose is a so called impact prop.
Agree, Robes pass selection has been poor at times, the problem is our flat attack and doesn,t see the options and resorts to running the ball in himself.

Forgive me for being a little thick but shouldn't impact props be actully taking the ball in if on for short period ?

You look at the likes of feka at hull whos a impact prop, he comes on takes it in hard and fast and then leaves the field. We have mose come on, do one or two carries and leave ?

Even when he started agsinst hull, he did 25 mins from the start and did 3 carries.

Surely you can't make excuses for that sort of performances ?

YES........I am not defending him, I am just highlighting there are other factors involved. The team players and coach seem to have accepted his erratic involvement.
Through his own or players fault he doesn,t get enough passes to make any decent carries, through his own or coaches fault he doesn,t play enough minutes.
Our squad quality is not good enough to drop him, yet as a club we don,t seem want to fix it, with this individual player management the club are just as bad as Mose himself.

Let's just say up until our injuries im pretty sure mose wouldn't have been in the 17 every week. Read into that as you wise but I'll be surprised if he finishes the season as a starting player in our 17.

That's upto Mose himself really. The frustrating thing with Masoe is at times he can be a brilliant gamechanger for us. Of all the players in the squad his performances level fluctuate the most.

Re: Mose Masoe : Sat Apr 18, 2015 9:27 am  

He was a disgrace last night. I won't be sad to him to go.

Re: Mose Masoe : Sat Apr 18, 2015 10:38 am  

People call Lance but Mose has been a huge flop. He offers nothing. I'd be happy if we let him go and free some money up on the cap.

Re: Mose Masoe : Sat Apr 18, 2015 12:00 pm  

If you people honestly believe a guy as hard-headed as Keiron wouldn't drop Mose in a HEARTBEAT if he didn't think he was performing - you don't know Keiron.

He's dropped Lance.
He's dropped Jones.
He was instrumental in booting Gaskell.
Ditto Foster.
He even dropped Wello, a guy who he KNOWS will die for the club.

We aren't THAT short in the forwards he can't afford to drop Mose. He hasn't.

Explain that.

Oh, I forgot. You can't.

Kieron's human and makes mistakes and poor judgement, like some posters on here.

He's probably hoping and praying that maybe, just maybe he might fulfil just a tiny bit of the bags of potential that he has.

Thats the problem we know the potential is there but we can,t extract it, be it by Mose himself or team play, is KC trying to work out the right formula.
Mose is a proven NRL and International player and allegidally wanted by 4 NRL clubs, they are obviously seeing something that our club can,t extract.
Have the club or himself allowed him to be "a big kid in a pub team" performer.

It would be interesting if Wane coached pur pack for a couple of weeks would we see a better Mose Masoe.
