At the very least Mathers makes things exciting. Every time he; has the ball in hand/ is near the ball/ isabout to receive the ball/ is on the field/ is near the field, you sense that he is never more than a few moments away from an epic fail.
I'm more worried about the fact that he is poor under the high ball, has poor positional sense and struggles to tackle one on one. There the things a fullback needs to be able to do well and he cant. At least mcgoldrick is an attacking threat from fullback.
It infuriates me that we have two good young fullbacks at he club who can both catch better than mather and are in the right position more often and we sign mathers instead of playing them.
Signing mathers also means we are almost certain to move mcgoldrick to the halfs instead of buying a proper scrum half.
