How did he do then?

How many did he drop?



Sounded as though he attacked the ball well, and got an assist for Raynors try I believe. (So he'll be on almost the same amount of assists as Horne & Thorman won't he)

Lee Richardson said he deserved the MOM award.

Tansey did well tonight. He looks comfortable at full back.

I agree with him, he was my MoM. He looked very comfortable at FB and came into the line at pace when required. The biggest plus for me though was his organising of the players in frontof him, he never stopped pointing and talking throughout the game. Very encouraging start for me.

was between him and whiting for mom imo

think he will turn out into a very very good signing for us next year when he gets fully used to the crap rugby we play

bright star in a very poor performance is how id sum it up

Slotted in nicely. Came into the line well and looks to have a decent kicking game - that bomb in the second half had snow on it.

I agree ,He looks very comfortable in the position and also links up well to give options with the ball.

Agreed - looked an attacking threat and set up the try for Raynor. Did let a ball bounce though.


Slightly concerned that Agar says he can play at 9.

He said that they see him as FB but that he can play up through the middle of the park if required.

No need to panic.

Comfortable, confident, at ease......exactly what we've been missing there

good debut

considering he'd only just arrived as well

I've been a Motu fan for years, but having seen Tansey tonight I've become even more convinced that letting Tony go is the right thing to do now.

Had as good a game as it was possible to have surrounded by that shower IMO. Pass to Raynor looked well forward from where I was though, was anybody in line with it?

There weren't many positives tonight but Tansey was certainly one. Never looked in difficulty and looked safe. Good start.

had a good game tonight read the game well like the way he marshall ed the players when on our own line

MOM for mine, organizing in defence, seemed to know exactly when to come into the line, a last ditch tackle, great pass for raynor and generally got involved brilliantly.

great first game for him. looked solid and he was easy my MOM.

have too agree he had a very good game looked very comftable at fb

Agreed, the full back shirt will be his for the rest of the season and he will get the No1 shirt next year.

Was very impressed with him, as already mentioned he has only been in the country a few days and he reallly stood out tonight. His organisation of the defence was good to see as well.

Was pretty much in line with his pass for Raynor's try, looked ok from our angle, nice and flat!!

So have we drawn the line under the suggestions to play him at centre then?



It was good near me in the south stand as well tonight. I heard 2 behind me in the 1st 5 minutes saying they were disappointed he was at fullback, he should be at hooker. They'd changed their minds by the end.

Far too good for us. agar will coach his flair and enthusiasm out of him though

great player,
positioning was spot on

I thought he marshalled the defence very well, the big positive for me was his reading of the game, some of his positioning for the kick throughs were excellent.
No disrespect to Richie W but Tansey was my MOM.

Thought he did well tonight. Was my man of the match. Good positioning, great play to set up Raynor, just how a full back should link up with the play.

Bye bye Motu and thanks for the momories.........he line attack was superb for Raynors try......he came from the middle of the pitch on the loop......My m.o.m as well
