If MoiMoi is on 2 grand a week, most of this would be compensated by shirt printing, wigs etc etc. Understand what people are stating about him, but he is in good shape and was a true NRL star. It is the Champioship, and to be fair I would agree with what most say if he signed for a SL club.
He sounds a real nice bloke and a genuine Joker. The overall feelgood factor of having someone like him helping some of the other forwards would be a joy to see.
A great addition to RL in general and hopefully will stay injury free to have 1 good season.

Yes, you are going to sell £104k per year worth of shirts and wigs. Whats the salary cap again?

That's assuming that he is on 2 grand a week. Not sure we can fully trust a 'rumour' heard by a fax fan about the financial details for a player that is still in Australia and hasn't even been announced as signed yet. I would expect Moi Moi (if he has signed for us) to be on a similar wage to our other top forwards. Possibly a bit more as a 'big name'. Certainly not 104k a year

What an absolute t-at, w is the missing word, explain why you think pond life?
Yes it was wrong, in my humble opinion, but I tell you what, if Sam had hit Dane that hard, Dane wouldn't have laid down.
It's easy to "cheap shot" on a key board.

He was on $300k a year at Parra plus other endorsements. Had coaching and other options open to him, so doubt he will travel to the other side of the world for minimum wage. Most high profile Aussies who travel to play in RL in the UK openly admit they do so for the money. Two grand a week sounds about right for someone of Moi Moi's profile.


Just an aside, a Parra fan posted a couple of years ago that they had named their cat "Fui Fui Meow Meow". Made me smile. If he does sign for Leigh, just hope he doesn't end up being a pussycat.

Answer 1 question honestly. Would you Fax fans want to see Moi Moi in your team in 2015?

Re: Tamghart and Moimoi : Fri Nov 28, 2014 7:36 am  

I think the point hes making is someone who's played international RL plus NRL all his career probably has come up againgst a tougher opponent than Dane at some point

Great post, really adds something to the debate, bet if you ever got on Mastermind when asked your name you would reply "pass"
Now try and add a little bit to your post, like deluded about what?
Oh I've got your answer "pass"

Yes I would say so, he could become a cult figure similar Geoff Robinson, the sort of player to help bump the crowds and give a lift to the fans and the team.
Good luck to him and Leigh if he does sign.
