clubs official statement on the release of Mose Masoe

[Hawkeye]

It always amazes me how teams who are supposedly struggling with the salary cap, can always seem to find a way to sign another player.
I'm surprised of all the clubs who could have signed Mose, it is the Panfers. I thought they were struggling with the cap and even last month were reported as wanting to re-jig and downgrade three player's contracts, as well as having unsuccesfully tried to offload Jennings. !

Useless and usefull, for not much at all. Good luck Mose.

So the possible reasons why mose left...

We need cap space????????why mose...........was mose unhappy with trent, felt his spot was under threat by sam,napa,evans,alioma or was it he just found the preseason tooo hard.

Cap space.........saw an interview on fox thurs , with james tamou. The interviewer asked how well he fit in when he first moved from the roosters, and james said it was hard for the first year(wanted to drive back every week)..
James is of contract the same time as thursty. And it was also mentioned that james was approached by sticky to join the elllees...so a move back to sydney maybe on the cards for james if thursty leave the cowards. I wonder if we are showing an early hand to james to come home, possibly

see ya mose, nice bloke and a bit of fun.

I dont understand if we have had cap space problems why we did it before the players commision put forward their requirements to the arlc. It was announced that the players all agreed they wanted to lift the base wage up and a larger cut for origin and also a dispensation in the cap for long term injuries during a season.

There hasent been a descion handed down yet, so there may be an increase yet to come

Decision would make much more sense if FPN wasn't on our books.

He should have been let go first.

FPN has had his moments, far more than mose. I think FPN will lift with SBW on the field. In fact they all, will even Filthy.

i asked him once why he backed off wwhen he got to the line, his reply" i dont want to hurt people"? an interesting answer from a prop, perhaps when he played as a kid he did actually hurt other kids, a very sensitive caring man, i wish him well and know he will be missed!

Thats why he got punted.

Mate it's a legal violent brutal game. "I dont want to hurt people" shouldn't be playing the game.

Just on a side note the Telegraph, this morning, done a run down on the expected big young players coming thru, and no mention of the two supposedly next big things, players, we apparently signed from Canterbury, did we infact sign these players, if so,what the hell are their names, its a worry they never made that list if they are as good as reported. anybody got any light they can shed on this matter,?????????

Do you really think the Telucrap would highlight anything positive about the Roosters?? Anyway I think one of them you are referring to is Mitchell Mammary (spelling?) can't remember the other one.

[Guest]

Mitchell mammary hasnt played toyota cup yet,,,
That list in the telecrap was referring to players from toyota last season

Kane Evans got a mention

[PKR]

Good luck Mose, will miss the smile and your friendly manor.
Just remember when you play the Roosters next year, "You don't want to hurt anyone".

[Guest]

cue mose being called up for the kiwis next year.
it always happens as soon as the leave the roosters. all you need to do is put them in a winning team and apparently theyre test material
