If Moto had put in a performance like that, there would have been a w@nkfest on here.

He was awesome mate and his 2 tackles won us the game, hows that over-stating it? Give a bloke credit he deserves.

If Motu had put in a performace like that it would have been below his usual standard. Byrne was solid in defense but did nothing in attack.

His defence was the equivalent to scoring 2 tries. We wont the game and he made a huge contribution.
As has been said, if Motu pulled off those tackles there would have been nothing but praise for him.

He was nowhere near awesome. For awesome see Motu's display at Leeds a couple of seasons ago.
I have given him plenty of credit, he was solid in defence and made a couple of good tackles but that doesn't make his performance awesome.

Because he would then have made those tackles whilst offering a hell of a lot more in attack, making it a better all round performance.

How good was he that day. Incredible.
As you say he made 2 brilliant tackles but that doesnt warrant the term awsome.

Its interesting to see what people watch for and what sticks in memories isnt it. Motu was awesome v Leeds due to his work it attack (as he has been most of the time when he has played FB)
Byrne was awesome on Friday for a totally different quality.
