Get him fit? He trains with the Cowboys full time. He hasn't missed a game since round 5 and played 18 games for 4 tries.

Milford was pivotal in this; they're mates from school in Ipswich.

18 games after having 3 or more knee reconstructions in the last 5 years would be a more apt description of his health, I'm not sure I'd call that "fit" per se, if he plays 26 games in 2017 we can call him fit.
It's a similar scenario to Kahu, I never truly feel like he's 100% fit because he's injured so often that it's going to take a toll on his body, you need a good 18 months injury free to truly become your best self, health wise.

Tautau Moga is a terrible signing IMO. You look at his speed at the Roosters (Youtube) compared with now and his knee recos have taken a massive toll on it.
Personally I don't think he's NRL standard anymore but we'll see.
I feel really sorry for the kid (he is still only 22) - he had the potential to be a special player. But that's two clubs now (Roosters, Cowboys) who have now got fed up with him because of his injuries.

Maybe I being to positive here, but I still think he can be a quality player if he stays uninjured under Bennett.

Nah. I watched a couple of Mackay games this year. He played in the Raiders vs. Cowboys game during the Origin period.

The Cowboys invested a lot of time and energy rehabbing him over the past year whilst he was still contracted. You'd think they would have kept him if they thought he was going to be good going forward.

One massive problem we had this season was almost NO experience outside our first XVII, hence needing Maranta through the middle of the season. We've since lost our lock, only good non-starting prop and left center. Moga has first grade experience and at the very worst will be good during the origin period. At best, could be a gun center. All for most likely a base wage. How exactly is this a bad signing?

He'll get injured again and take a roster position that could have been given to someone else.
