Well we have different views on what a display it was.....you may like your fullback dropping bombs and letting balls roll and not making tackles but joining the line and clearing line runs of upto 100mtrs in new world record time :wink: ...I like mine to be safe under the bomb,ball on floor ( i know he knocked one on) and pull off try saving tackles like he did friday to win us the game and to get a safe field position on kick returns...he also uses his wingers very well on this score.


If your looking it at it from a viewpoint of being undecided on who our first choice FB is then fair enough. IMO the coaching staff see Motu as the FB at this club and Byrne is cover for the backs. Therefore Motu should get his place back until he plays poorly.

A few thoughts...

Tony won the FB spot off the back of Briscoe being injured. What's sauce for the goose perhaps?

If Motu needs to earn his place back, should washbrook have continued at 6 and Horne been made to earn his place back?

Difficult choice and TBH I imagine that Agar will make the selection based around how he wants the team to play rather than who 'has the shirt' or who may have played a blinder in a single match. :wink:

“We will not accept a top eight finish as a barometer of supposed success at any point in the future whilst I am the owner of this club.

Thats why you got the Bullet Agar...Adam Pearson wants winners...not useless gits like you.

Technically Briscoe was dropped. But I tend to agree with your last statement. Players that play in pivotal positions in particular are likely to get their place back regardless of how well somebody covers them, unless dropped for reasons of form etc.

Point your missing is that Byrne and Motu are both full backs and both pretty good, the one with the jersey currently has performed well enough to keep it.

Washy v Horne, Washy is never a SL 6 and looked very poor in that role. There is no doubt Horne should come back.

If Berrigan was injured and Lee started at 9 with Houghton on the bench and both had absolute blinders i would also argue that Berrigan shouldnt walk back in immediately

To be fair to Washbrook, We had no other option at the time .

Pretty sure Byrne's position of choice in the NRL was Winger before he became more of a utility player.

How do you recommend a player returning from injury earns his place back?
