I've praised Mose when he's played well so I do try to be honest as I can. My biggest complaint with Mose is that he won't do those hard yards I'm banging on about all the time. One seen Amor do two tough drives off his own line and getting hammered while the big Mose was still walking back into the line (is that offside by way ?) and that for me happens to much.
The pack has to share the work and work as a unit. That wouldn't happen at Wigan that's for sure.
Look at his two last games for Samoa. He's took 10 drives in two games which IMO isn't acceptable and that indicates that the are some unsung heroes are doing his work.
Like I've said, when his attitude is right and he's on his game he's really good but 60% of the time he's lazy and not interested.
Barrie Mac and Terry O'conner both share my opinion and Mose himself said his performances wasn't up to scratch.

I posted this the other day and you didn't respond:
"Just to look at it from a different angle mate, what if that is a deliberate ploy? What if Walmsley and Amor are instructed to do the "hard yards" and Masoe told to save himself for the opposition half where he is far more dangerous and effective than the other two?
If that was the case then surely no blame can be laid at the door of Masoe. One thing for certain is that neither Walmsley or Amor would have scored some of the tries that Masoe did, therefore it wouldn't surprise me in the least if it's a tactical thing, as opposed to Masoe simply being reluctant to do the hard graft."
Perhaps 'lazy and not interested' is actually Masoe saving himself for the big plays as instructed?
