I've not noticed a lack of effort. More the usual over-expectancy from Saints fans.

But I do apologise for not toeing the Widnes Exile party line.

The thing is, he is a second row. If we asked Gilmour or Wilkin to play prop they would get murdered. Tony has averaged the same metres since he switched to prop as before. If anything his workrate has gone up, but the fancy stuff has gone because he's playing prop!

He was mostly playing second row then.

He was probably doing all Pryce's tackling.

and bad ones too.

I thought last night Tony P played ok but generally speaking I don't think he has shown the form of his first few matches since he had that virus. Whether he's lazy or not I don't know, but sometimes he sure has looked like he's been avoiding the work.

I think he's been pretty consistent for most of the season. If you're expecting him to be throwing tacklers off every game then you have to allow for him not being as good every game. It's impossible for the guy to be breaking tackles left, right and centre every time he comes on the pitch. His yardage making has been pretty consistent and without him we'd have struggled even more.

Typical fickleness. Lose a game or two and it's the coach, the tactics, players not giving their all etc.

I don't think tony p has had the impact the club was looking for. Fair enough he makes good yards and he adds size to what's a small pack but if I'm being honest I think he's been a let down.

I think he is little lazy or bit half hearted at times. Him being half hearted resulted in ablett getting over for his try last night. Tony p should have rapped him up.

I just dont see this laziness from tony, for me he is phenominal and his stats back it up, he's one of our top tacklers, metre makers, carrier, tackles bust, gives away very few penalties, lots of offloads (have come down since he was moved to prop) and allthis playing most of the season out of position. The best import into the league this year.

Coached out of him.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
It hasn't!!!!!!!!!!!
8.64 metres/carry is one of the best in the entire league!!!
Jammer gets 7.21
Peacock gets 7.28
Morley gets 8.03

Some fans seem to see what they want to!

Everything is Potter's fault.
