I would assume he'd use the same terms of reference when discussing Motu as being a full-back

The difference being that Motu has played FB for a large part of his career at club level. |

....and not very successfully. Though it wasn't his fault that an eccentric old aussie fool didn't realise full-back was not his best position. |

| Quote ="Gordon Gekko"His best position is undoubtedly hooker'"
You're undoubtedly wrong. He simply doesn't have anywhere near the standard of passing required to play hooker on a regular basis, and his best assets are wasted there. But I can't really be bothered with this again after the reams I've written on the subject in the past. Feel free to go through my old posts and have a read if you want to know why he isn't a hooker and is a fullback. |

Hello everyone, there seems to be a big debate on Motu Tony and where is his best position. So if you had him in your team where would you personally play him? Has he ever really had a specialist position because it seems he was always seen as a utility player, playing wing,centre, full back, hooker.

Don't be so sure.
He will be playing super league next season. |

Motu and Justin were in the Warriors team together back in 2001 - so there is a connection.
Injuries have certainly disrupted the last couple of years for Motu, but a fresh start at another club playing interchange hooker/utility back - and he'd be a cracking signing.
Motu could be the man for you after another possible target - Dene Halatau signed with Canterbury.

A fit Motu Tony would be an asset to any super league squad, on & off the pitch.
I hope he does get fixed up somewhere, & if it is at Rovers I'd wish him well.

How he is still classified eg 'overseas' etc will have a significent bearing where he ends up .
He has been a good player for Hull , though the switch to a more permanent FB role has not been a great success.

You'd think they would be wanting to keep hold of Washbrook , Houghton or Burnett. |
