Biography:

Originally from Noosa, Moses Mbye joined the Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs in 2011 as part of the club’s NYC team. Captaining the side over the course of the next three seasons, Mbye chalked up a number of junior representative honours including QLD U/20’s in 2012 and 2013 as well as the Junior Kangaroos in 2013 before eventually making his first-grade debut for the Bulldogs in Round 8 of the 2014 season.

Playing a number of positions throughout the year, Mbye would play a key role in the Bulldogs eventual Grand Final finish, with the talented youngster starting at hooker in the side’s Grand Final defeat to the South Sydney Rabbitohs.

He would move in to the halves alongside Josh Reynolds during the 2015 season and quickly began to establish himself as a regular in the first-grade side — reaching the senior representative arena with selection in the 2016 Prime Minister’s XIII side and the 2017 World All Stars.

Mbye moved to fullback under new Bulldogs Coach Dean Pay at the start of the 2018 season and was a revelation in the position. He was selected as cover in the Queensland State of Origin side, before securing a mid-season switch to Wests Tigers on a four-and-a-half year deal.

Mbye would play nine games for his new club (including his 100th NRL game) — finishing the year with three tries and a number of impressive performances that left his new fans and teammates with plenty of reasons to be excited about the future.

With a new coach in Michael Maguire joining Wests Tigers in 2019, Mbye was named captain ahead of the start of the season. Starting the year at fullback, he would go on to play 17 games for the club but ended the season at centre with Corey Thompson instead preferred in the number one jersey.

It was still a highly successful season for Mbye in 2019, with the Noosa Pirates junior becoming the first Wests Tigers player in over a decade to be selected for Queensland — playing all three games for the Maroons in a well-fought series.

Named co-captain of the club alongside Benji Marshall for the 2020 season, Mbye is signed through at Wests Tigers until at least the end of the 2022 season.
