Noffa - Fullback?

I wouldn't have him as fullback. If we don't get JAC I'd stick Mbye back there.

Haven’t we tried that before? I agree it may be the best of a lousy set of options but there in lies our problem...

I don't disagree but in the absence of signing JAC, Mbye is probably our best option.

He was really good there in 2018 and played injured throughout 2019, I think he deserves a chance in the role the club bought him to play.

Oh absolutely.
 
Nofo is a winger and only a winger.

I think nofu has all the skills for fullback taking highball and returning up field look at where he ranks in ARM not bad for a winger

Oh yah, so he can play eyes-up, judge numbers and ball play?

He is a strong runner of the ball but that's where it stops.

I'd like to know why JAC qualifies as an outstanding FB proposition and Nofo doesn't.

He's fast and skillful. That's a good starting point. Nof is a slow winger that runs sideways and breaks tackles. He simply doesn't have the skillset to play fullback

He looked alright last week. Who says JAC has the skill set to play fullback?

JAC is an outstanding winger....fullback is an entirely different game...I wouldnt pay him fullback money until he is proven in that position ..fullstop..

I think it is yet to be seen JAC has the skill set for fullback. I would give him a shot during pre season, but I don't think he will make it.

Noffa looked hobbled last week so probably best not to judge him. I do think though that if he had the attributes to be a fullback, the coaches would have seen it by now.
Both he and JAC have been in first grade a while and have had numerous fullbacks picked ahead of them.

Fullback is the hardest position on the field. Non stop running, talking, setting the defensive line. And that is without the ball.

Mbye will be fullback, he just needs to work on catching the high ball. He is quicker than Douhi, better positioning defensively and better ball player on the sweep move.

Which is the contract I've heard


When you prove yourself in 1st grade ...12 games he triggers bonuses ...I can live with that

Rather try AJ as the back then Nofo..


How about his form under the high ball. Might even be worse than Mbye.

I still say that other than catching bombs, Mbye looks our best fullback since Teddy. Surely he can practice this constantly for the next 5 months?

I endorse this post.
