CS9 was 20 when he did a full season. By 21 he was into Season 2 and had played 40 games.
It's Mozer's time, needs to take the season off, get repaired and be ready for '26

Maybe it is - tbf i wouldn't know - i haven't really seen much of Mozer to even compare him to CS9 - and from his time in 1st grade he didn't blow me away to think that he demand selection. Going with the coach on this one. I've just seen this push a million times in the past to get players in before they're ready - and it rarely ends well. Like I said, I think its better to transition him in over the next couple of years, as players ahead of him naturally leave/retire.

Let's not compare Mozer to the greatest hooker that has ever laced up a boot.
Let's be a bit more realistic

Some of the articles at the time suggest he was just the next player available (started at 7 after all). Definitely don't recall much chat about him being a Galvin-esque goat.
My point wasnt to compare him to CS9 - it was that perhaps throwing them in early, perhaps they go just fine rather than holding them back until 23-24 yo and no, no interest in a repeat of Seibs'2020 blood them at 20 either.
Seems Mozer is in the right time and its a shame he's busted.

I know Cam Smith is the goat hooker but also think the percentage of 110kg+ Polynesian blokes in the middle would’ve been much lower in those days

This is exactly right. I think madge has done a great job in holding off on pulling the trigger on Mozer. R v Dearden should still be fresh in our minds...
Yeah I said 24 would be his year in 20/21 but even that was too early.
Grant is a good comparison, at the same age he’d played 40 Cup games and two NRL games.
Very similar to Mozer with 9/44 games.
Mozer hasn’t had a Grant 2019 with 14 tries and 21 try assists in 22 games.

Was Harry playing 80mins at that point?
Just interested to see if they were waiting on Harry to dominate and own Qcup before they pulled the trigger.
They did have CS9 playing 80mins week in week out, and so no pressure to try and bring Harry into the team
He used to have a break at 60-65 minutes but played 80 at times.
Definitely a Smith effect. If they didn’t have Smith then Grant might play less Cup.
Mozer to me is a good Cup player. In 2019 Grant won hooker of the year, Fogarty beat him by three points for Petero Medal and he got Falcons player of the year.
I wish Mozer would have that year so we can all move forward.

THIS MASTHEAD is currently "revealing" the club is about to enter "crisis talks" with Selwyn and a bunch of Aboriginal Elders over fears he might chuck in the towel and walk away from the game. They're calling it "Operation Save Selwyn." Presumably from himself.
THIS MASTHEAD reckons they can only afford to pay him around $300k.

Is this real??
I saw today that DFifi has apparently reached out to Uncle Wayne to save him... depending on how Souths salary cap is looking I wonder if they would have to make a decision between Fifita or Cobbo.
I'd imagine they'd be taking Fifi in that situation, which could leave Selwyn without another suitor.
When you're getting down to $300k for Cobbo... there would be a number of teams interested... whether they have his best interest at heart is another question.

At least they're not talking him up.

Yup, this 100%.
We’ve been hyped up & forced to believe way too many times that we’ve found our next Alfie or next Locky only to be busted badly. Let’s hope that we found a genuine 9. If he turns out to be good, then we will go a long way. Let’s hope Mozer gets his body right & fit before he’s thrown in 1st grade.

Fox talking about it like it's all broncos fault about these "crisis talks" and only being able to offer him $300k.
Why is their focus not about what is going on inside Cobbo's head?
The media is so oblivious to actual mental health... they talk a nothing game when it's staring them right in the face.
This story to me is all about the longevity of Cobbo in the game and his current headspace.. and all they want to focus on is $300k and ragebait about broncos trying to sneak him in at "half price"... no one is forcing him to sign a contract... he can sign wherever the hell he wants.
The real question is... Does he even want to sign something?
