This is so yuck to end the season. Embarrassed beyond belief. I think loss is on track to hit record books. Not just for knights but NRL.
 
Moses is so good. I reckon he's better than Cleary
Certainly more versatile. Moses can be equally as good as a second fiddle. Cleary only really good as a controlling on ball 7.

But just goes to show a catered system is equally as important as talent. I’m actually not convinced Moses would be as good as Cleary *at Penrith* because the Penrith game model is about total conviction to keeping ball in play & controlling territory/possession. Which means picking high percentage options over 95% of the time.

Moses is a bit more of a gunslinger, chances his arm more. I reckon you ask him to do what Nathan does and he gets bored and gives up transition opportunities that Cleary as a general rule minimises.

But also if you put Cleary in this not very good Eels team, he would not be as good as Moses. No chance.

It’s all about catering what you do to the talent you have rather than trying to fit what you have into boxes. That’s what’s impressed me so much about the Dolphins, regardless of actual results so far. They have an identity. They are an Isaiya Katoa team.
 
Besides a few games where his stats were padded by kick return metres, he’s been invisible again this season. I’m way more excited to see Trey Mooney next season.
We've certainly struggled in the periods of games when he's been on the bench. I think he's been ok.
