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.

So one of the best defensive displays ive seen in recent years from an FC fullback doesnt warrant the term awesome because he only made 1 half break early on and didnt go the full length etc?
As i said earlier, think your doing Byrne a dis-service mate TBH

No his all round game was awesome that day.
If Byrne was awesome on Friday the likes of Radders and the Yak were out of this world.

Are you serious?
I've said several times that Byrne had a solid game but I just dont get why people are bigging his performace up.

| what a pointless conversation, Byrne did his job at fullback and, by all accounts, had a good game.
Does he really need comparing with Motu like this?

Nope.
Two different players offering different strengths and weaknesses, and one of them isn't even fit yet.

Byrne, he has done nothing to deserve dropping, Motu to the bench if fit.

Thats not how it works. Motu is the first choice FB, Byrne is "covering" Motu until he is fit. Motu wasn't dropped for playing poorly.
