NRL star Mitchell Moses is busted in wild act that would get him in HUGE trouble in any workplace in Australia
The Eels moved four points clear of last-placed Gold Coast with a stirring 19-18 win over North Queensland at CommBank Stadium on Sunday.
Moses booted the winning field goal with five minutes left to give the Eels their seventh win of the season and help them leapfrog the Cowboys into 13th spot with four games to play.
However, with 10 minutes left in the match and the scores level, Moses exploded at Da Silva after the youngster decided to run the ball himself instead of passing to his teammates.
Parramatta players looked incredibly frustrated by Da Silva's decision, with Moses caught on camera appearing to yell: 'Tallyn, you f***ing c**t!'
Following the match, the skipper was asked about the incident by Bryan Fletcher on Fox Sports' Sunday Night with Matty Johns.
'Yeah, it happens on the field … was a tense game,' Moses explained.
'We'll learn a lot of lessons from that I think. We've got a really young squad at the moment and it's better to learn the lessons winning the game than having a loss.'
Footy fans online were divided over Moses' fiery outburst, with some branding him a bully.
'What p**s-weak leadership from Mitchell Moses. Absolutely pathetic,' posted one X user.
'That's not a leader that's a bully,' agreed another.
Others backed the Parramatta captain for his actions.
'The game was on the line. He is the captain. Did his job!' posted one user.
'100% right he was to berate him, he will be better for it and 10 mins later he was celebrating,' said another.
Cowboys coach Todd Payten took a cheeky dig at Mitch Moses for diving in an obstruction call that denied his side a late try
On Monday morning, Andrew Voss addressed the incident on SEN radio, saying Da Silva played the 'worst four or five minutes at dummy half in the history of the game'.
'I don't think I've seen a dummy half make so many mistakes and errors of judgement in a short period with his team getting in front by one,' Voss said.
'The on-field berating by Mitchell Moses... that's happened plenty of times. (But) It happened three times in five minutes, how do you come back from that?
'Was it fair game? Mitchell Moses lost his you-know-what. And I can understand it. I can imagine Parramatta fans losing it.'
Cowboys coach Todd Payten took a dig at Moses post-match, claiming that the halfback dived in a crucial obstruction call in the last 30 seconds of the game.
'I thought the on-field referee got it right. I've seen Mitchell dive over the years plenty of times,' he said.
However, Payten later admitted the call was correct.
'I always think about putting myself on the other side and I think it was the right call in the end,' he said.

Louis Rees-Zammit close to sealing Premiership return with ambitious club after Wales wing announced he had given up on his NFL dream
Bristol Bears are close to securing the signing of Louis Rees-Zammit in time for the start of the new Gallagher Premiership season which begins next month. Rees-Zammit's return to rugby after stints in the NFL with Kansas City Chiefs and Jacksonville Jaguars means the speedster is one of the hottest names on the market. As revealed by Daily Mail Sport, it is expected the 24-year-old wing will join rugby's rebel league R360 for its slated start date of September 2026. But before that, Rees-Zammit has been on the lookout for a one-year contract elsewhere. It is understood he has had a number of offers on his plate, including several in France. Pat Lam's Bears were interested in him from the start and Daily Mail Sport understands there is a confidence they can seal a deal for the Welshman ahead of their rivals. Prior to leaving rugby for the NFL, Rees-Zammit played all of his club rugby with Gloucester. However, joining his former team's West Country rivals would make a lot of sense. Rees-Zammit, who is still currently based in Florida, could make the short commute to Bristol from his home city of Cardiff where he lived before moving to the USA. The Bears also have money to spend on their squad and have space for a new wing. Despite the fact he hasn't played professional rugby for nearly 18 months, Rees-Zammit's talent means he hasn't been short of options. Although he didn't play a senior NFL match, his USA switch has made him a hot commercial property – something which complements his fine playing ability. Should he sign for Bristol, he would be seen as a huge marketing tool for the Bears who will play Harlequins in Cardiff later in the 2025/26 season. There is an understanding at Ashton Gate that should Rees-Zammit be in their team for that game in the Welsh capital on March 28, it could add a significant boost to ticket sales. Bristol have a reputation for a bold and innovative approach to all their rugby operations. Last season, they signed USA superstar Ilona Maher for their women's team on a short-term deal to huge success and are keen to do the same with Rees-Zammit. Earlier this week Newcastle Red Bulls director of rugby Steve Diamond confirmed his team wouldn't be signing Rees-Zammit despite their takeover by the billionaire drinks conglomerate. Gloucester had an option to discuss re-signing their former player. But despite Cherry & Whites boss George Skivington having a discussion with Rees-Zammit, a Kingsholm return is unlikely leaving Bristol as the most probable English club to seal his signature. Bristol could announcement Rees-Zammit's signing imminently. Any deal for Rees-Zammit will only be for 12 months with his R360 move in mind. His domestic return is good news for Wales who are set to have Rees-Zammit back in their team for their November Tests – their first campaign under new head coach Steve Tandy.

Warner's Ashes jibe 'part of the fun'
England batter Joe Root says David Warner's pre-Ashes sledge is "all part of the fun" and believes he is better placed than ever to score his first Test century in Australia this 34, continued his superb form this summer and will be key when England head to Australia in November to try and win the Ashes for the first time since has not scored a hundred in 14 Tests in Australia and, speaking to BBC Sport earlier this month, former Australia opener Warner said Root will have to "take the surfboard off his front leg" - a reference to the perception Root is regularly dismissed lbw."I can't have any control or say on how people see the game or talk in an interview," said Root. "It is irrelevant. "What more can I do about it? Just keep my surfboard out the way and make sure it is not a talking point in 100 days' time." Root and Warner will meet in The Hundred at Lord's on Thursday when the Englishman's Trent Rockets travel to play London if he will respond to Warner's jibes on the field, Root said: "I don't think so. "I guess it is all part of the fun right? We will see what happens but it is not really in my nature to get too verbal."While Root has never scored a century or won a Test in Australia, he has scored nine fifties and averages 35.68 - a respectable record although well below his career average of summer he scored 537 runs in five Tests against India and moved up to second in the all-time Test run-scorers' list behind only India legend Sachin Tendulkar."Having played in Austrlaia a couple of times before, now going with 150-odd Test caps under my belt, I feel I couldn't be more ready for it," said Root."The thing that stands out for me is I probably wanted it [a century] way too much the last couple of times. It took me away from what was important."Root added that there were "loads of other things to contend with" on the last two Ashes tours in Australia in 2021-22 and 2017-18, both of which the hosts won 4-0."There were a lot of distractions," said Root."I was captain, Covid [during the 2021-22 defeat], there was the Stokes incident the time before that, the Jonny [Bairstow] headbutt incident as well. "This time I want to just go and enjoy the tour for what it is. It is a beautiful country it is a great place to go and play cricket. "I know if I put my best performances in then everything else will look after itself."
