Why??






Motto of the week -

It is the way of the weak to secretly bleat to those in authority rather than fight their own battles.

Think he is suggested Horne played wing for GB but is not a winger.

Seem to remember Mike Forshaw and Sinfield playing hooker for GB around the same time....bizarre. :shock:

Hope Motu has an injury free run cos he is a quality player.

Fair enough.

I would assume he'd use the same terms of reference when discussing Motu as being a full-back :wink: His best position is undoubtedly hooker and he has the ability to cover a number of other positions which make him a very useful player.

Motu can play a variety of postions to a very high standard. He is a very dedicated pro who gives great value for money (injuries aside :D )

To have played in major finals at wing, full back, stand off and hooker is one heck of an achievement!

He also played Hooker in one game. :)

The difference being that Motu has played FB for a large part of his career at club level. :wink:

....and not very successfully. Though it wasn't his fault that an eccentric old aussie fool didn't realise full-back was not his best position.

That's a matter of opinion.

You're undoubtedly wrong. He simply doesn't have anywhere near the standard of passing required to play hooker on a regular basis, and his best assets are wasted there. But I can't really be bothered with this again after the reams I've written on the subject in the past. Feel free to go through my old posts and have a read if you want to know why he isn't a hooker and is a fullback.
