Hull FC general manager Moto Tony will leave the club at the end of the season to go home to NZ. He'll be sadly missed, a great guy

Tweeted by James smailes

Big shoes to fill whoever takes that role


Thanks motu for your hard work and fantastic signings, no better way to go home at the end of the season watching us get to the GF and win it

Absolutely devastated to hear this news, he's been instrumental in some great signings for us over recent years and I hope he's still our eyes and ears down under.

Really gutted. What a servant to the club though. Thanks for everything, Motu.

Hopefully he can still work on our recruitment whilst back in NZ. I loved him as a a player - as brave as any player I've ever seen and he'll always be a part of our folklore following cardiff.

Some massive shoes for someone to follow.

I guess this was always on the cards he has been over here for what seems a lifetime agree with the other posters massive loss can only hope he can be kept on in some capacity as our voice or represented down under to help us coax more great developing talent to the club good luck Motu and family in what ever role you find your self always a black and white #Hullfcfamily

Big loss to hear Motu Tony is leaving.

Let's hope our future recruitment can remain as strong.

Big loss.
Done some great recruitment after the shambles he inherited.
They always go home eventually though!

Be interesting to see who comes in.

It's a big blow to the club but understandable that he wants to be with his extended family.

He's been a real plus for the club and has been behind some very good signings for us. Hopefully he can still influence future signings by recommending the club to players from the NRL.

Called it in this piece a bit back that he'd probably be moving on after this season.
Done us proud on and off the pitch and has a great affinity for the city and people.
