Following a strong year for the Penrith Panthers, which saw him make his first grade debut and win the NSW Cup, Moseley thought the change of scenery was a positive move for his future.

“My manager called me last week and asked me about my thoughts about potentially playing for the Gold Coast Titans next year,” Moseley said.

“It’s not something that I had given much thought to at first, but after discussing it with my manager, we decided it would be beneficial for me to make the switch.”

“With the current hooking options at Penrith [James Segeyaro and Apisai Koroisau], there was more of a chance for me to play regular first grade with the Titans.

“The decision had nothing to do with moving closer to home, instead being about the great opportunity offered by the Titans.

“...Moving closer to home and back to Queensland is obviously a bonus though.”

With only Australian representative Greg Bird and Broncos recruit Josh Hoffman absent at training, Moseley said the sessions were already of a high standard.

“I flew from home to Gold Coast on Monday and started training the very next day, which included weights and wrestling,” he said.

“The body is feeling pretty sore, having to compete against the likes of Dave Taylor, Nate Myles and Ryan James.

“There aren’t too many boys bigger than them in the league so competing against them every day will do the world of good for me.

“I haven’t had a chance yet to speak in-depth to coach Neil Henry, with only a brief introduction at training.

“I’ll do what I always do and put myself in a position to get picked, because the rest will take care of itself.

“My manager has told me that I have been on the Titans’ radar for some time, so I intend to grab this opportunity with both hands.”

Moseley, 20, will team up with fellow North West Queensland rugby league talent Davin Crampton at the Titans next season.

“Davin has gone out of this way to make me feel welcome, as has the rest of the squad,” he said.

“We have already spent a fair bit of time together this week, discussing each other’s family and home.

“Although we never played against other when we were younger, because he is a little older, I did run water for Cloncurry against Normanton and watched how he played closely.

“Because of our indigenous backgrounds, we have connected very quickly, as we can relate to each other’s backgrounds.

“I can see that we are going to help each other’s transition this year and develop a strong bond as the year progresses.”
