Maybe my memory is playing tricks on me but I seem to remember the first few games of last season where Motu couldn't catch a bomb to save his life. Berrigan ending up dropping a kick off in one game becasue he moved over to cover for Motu who was cacking his pants. Dozens of people where booing around me in the south stand and screaming for him to be brought off, maybe that was a different Motu Tony? I was also at the Warrington away game where he struggled. It's no myth Scott, other teams know he has a weakness and pin point it.
He had 2 awful games at FB dropping every ball, since then he must have dropped the odd one. Yet people make out as though he drops every ball.

I don't even think it's been that many. There was two in the game against Wakey and possibly two against Quins. After that, there was a kick-off against Wigan. I can't remember any others throughout his career.

Oh FFS, Just go and watch Rovers, where your beloved Shaun Briscoe plays.

I've always said that if it wasn't for Shaun Briscoe and the amount of people who liked him, the small things like this that Motu has done would not have been made out to be so significant

Where in any post have I mentioned Briscoe? It be would as relevant as talking about Wellens or Webb. I like Motu Tony as a player, I don't however like him as a full back, I think we have better options. I'm not alone in this opinion.

Neither Byrne nor Hall are better FBs than Tony. They're just different.
And please don't even mention Horne...
