no thanks

he had 3 bad games in a row which people jumped on the bandwaggon and slated him for the rest of his days. Apart from that he probably made as many mistakes as any other player.

not good enough at FB, as they say your only as good as your last game BUT sharp hung motu out to dry at fc, he was a lamb to the slaughter after briscoe.....
at the time we didnt need berrigan but we got him which resulted in motu nailing his coffin shut at FB.......
shame cus he was a top player for fc, and i wont 4get the try vs leeds at cardiff..

Wont be a Rovers player next season.

IF he was anywhere near a super league player he would be at a super league club still. He was a decent player but has lost pace and is injury prone, which is why he was let go in the first place.

More half hearted journalism IMO.

Would be a poor signing!

Is it me, or has Mullan lost it completely and resorted to making stuff up? Jake Websters's leaving (then re-signs), Hall going to Rovers (Hall denies going to Rovers), I'm sure there are more examples. Who are his sources, as they seem to be having a laugh at his expense?

Motu Tony is a funny case. He actually got worse as his career went on. He debuted for the Warriors in 2001 and had a great first game. Played consistently for the rest of the year but was never the same player after 2001. By the time he went to the Superleague in 2004, he was a shadow of his former self. Maybe it’s because of the injuries. In saying that, he never looked like a natural footballer if you know what I mean.

He's playing where he is to prove his fitness after pretty much 18 months out of the game. He's still young enough to bounce back too.

I'd snap Motu up back at FC in a shot if he proved his fitness.

Therein lies the problem.

disagree, he had an awesome 2006 for us and was our player of the year IIRC. He was great throughout his spell for us, it was just the last 2 years of injuries that meant it was time to move him on.

Indeed. But that's exactly what he's trying to do. If he played all next season in NL1 and didnt miss any games i'd take a chance on him the year after to play 9 with Houghton when Berro goes.

In these times were coaches do like having utility players in their squads, a fully fit Motu Tony is perhaps one of the finest examples of a good utility player as you can get. I don't think there can be many players who cover hooker and full back, and anywhere in between. On his day, as good as anyone. I was always frightened to death when he was at the back and had a propensity for letting the high ball bounce. But as another poster has written, that try in the CC final 2005 was pure genius.
