We also need a no1, Dooee isn't a bad player but he's just not a 1, adds very little in attack.
Imo he's a 3,4.
We need some speed, we need an excitement machine at the back, we've got a sloth.
Garner needs a rocket, he's nowhere near the player he was last year, gone backwards.
This is the second post I have read of yours - saying AD is not a full back and that he is too slow. Fair enough that is your opinion.
However who is the replacement, all well and good saying no but I want to know who gets the yes.
Shift Nofoaluma to the 1
Watching Doohey is like watching an old bloke in the park doing Yoga
Doohey isn’t a fullback , he’s a centre
AND Nofoaluma is not a FB. If that is the answer to our so called FB problem it is not solved.
We are talking next year here - the 2021 + seasons.
Fact ..Doohey is too slow at the back and that’s why he’s always out of position ..
He’s a centre at best .
I also don’t believe this ‘he’s always out of position’ thing. He’s saved multiple tries for us in the last few weeks, and got caught out by one kick from cleary who’s the best half in the competition right now.
Last time ..
Doohey isn’t a fullback ..never was .
He’s a fill in at best .
He’s another jack of all trades .
Why’d you think Souths let him go ?
If he was a messiah in the 1 jersey like all you lot make him out to be , Souths would’ve kept him ..
End of story
No Mate, not t he end of t he story, the start of the story.
AD is not a FB - ok that is your opinion.
I ask the question for the second or third time.
Who is his LONG TERM replacement???? It is a question, can I have an answer.
We will need to scout for a proper fullback won’t we !
FMD ?
If Doohey is our long term fullback god help us ....

Thank you for the answer.
There is no one - so leave him at full back.
While I agree with you, Russ, I do think we need to find an alternative. I think, in some sort of order the best fullbacks are:
Teddy,
Turbo,
Ponga,
Gutho,
Papps,
Charnze,
Tuivsa-Scheck
then a gap to
Dylan Edwards
Latrell
maybe Moylan
etc etc.
I think the Manly replacement is better than AD.
Point being, a great fullback doesn't necessarily make a great team but looking at that list, the top all teams have a very good fullback. AD is a long way from that class.
Yet shockingly, his numbers this year at fullback are every bit as good (if not better) than Charnze and RTS and not far from Ponga.
It's footy, unfortunately, not maths.
Fair call, but I reckon he’s a lot better than a lot of
people give him credit for and still has a lot of upside. I might be wrong though!
Bloke can play footy, no doubt, I just don't think he's a fullback.
Where would you play him?
