David Nofoaluma #164

No to fullback for Nofo. He lacks the ballplaying ability you need in a top shelf fullback.
 
Nofo is slow?
Some super tough critics on here unless they are cracking the 100 in under 10 secs not good enough for the tigers :face_with_rolling_eyes:
 
Surely there is no way JAC would sign with us if he sees we are trying Nofo at fullback while already assuring JAC he has first dibs =p Can't play around with it this year.

Wouldn't hurt.

What was wrong with Mitch Brown ..he'd be a leader in this back 5

Has no passing game, no ability to read defence. He's a one dimensional winger. A decent one in attack. But a very limited player. Too slow too.

We're willing to give fox a shot, apparently, why would nofo not work. Would need to work on just as many attributes as JAC. Would also want to be a fb.

Nof can't pass. Is too slow. Can't kick. Cant defend or set-up team mates. Jac is at least an elite winger, is super fast and has shown he can throw a good long ball. Still plenty to work on but at least he has some of these skills.


Can’t pass? Can’t kick? He’s put in some nice grubbers throughout the year and has a very handy passing game. But I do agree we’ve got better options at 1

He was poo?
 
I disagree, Nofa is a stop start sudden impact winger, the best in the NRL, one would say in the world! He's a great finisher, returner, broken field runner but the more metres he has to cover at fullback it would stifle that sudden explosiveness. JAC will make a great fullback for us, mark my word, and move Adam to 5/8 as he has the vision, pass and running game.

JAC is the best winger in the NRL.
 
Nofa needs to be better defensively and better under the high ball. If you’re absolutely keen on moving him off his favoured wing position, then move him to 6?

I know that AD played 6 as a junior and a little bit at Souffs, he LOOKS like a centre and has played his best games as a centre. If something looks like a duck, sounds like a duck and walks like a duck.......
