Im just wondering who people thinks will be our fullback come round 1, there is a range of options including;
Lazarus
Moltzen
Brown
Tamuata
Mullany
Yet in all those options we do not have one experienced specialist fullback. So who do you think will be the fullback in round 1??
 
I'll pump for Brown…...Dark horse Ryan....or we could always use Fitzhenry.....you know....the expendables when Lortay waltz's in.......

But....I have a feeling Sheens will use Moltzen....Ha the most experienced one we got........
 
Im probably Dreaming but…

1 - Lote
7 - Moltzen
14 - Tamuata

I'd be supprised if Lazarus, Tamuata or Mullany Started at full back in round 1.

I'm be interested to see if there is any inside info on who has been training there.
 
I think it will be Moltzen, got a feeling halfback will be between Taumata and Lui. Brown is the other option and at close to 100kg and standing over 6ft tall would be a handy option to have.
 
It'll probably be:

1\. Moltzen
7\. Morris… Oh wait he isnt there :stuck_out_tongue:. Probably Lui imo.

I'd be excited with:
1\. Mullany
7\. Moltzen

But I think its a bit early for Mullany just yet.
 
I'd start Moltzen at fullback with Taumata and Lui fighting it out for halfback in the trials and even into the first 3 games of the season.

If neither Taumata or Lui cement the 7 in this time then bring Moltzen back into the halves leaving an opening for Tuquiri at fullback or wing.

If Taumata or Lui do enough to secure the 7, then Moltzen stays at fullback and Tuquiri onto Ryans wing.

Its a big call to not play Moltzen and Benji in the halves from round 1 though as they are a proven quantity there and the Moltzen far more experienced then Lui or Taumata.
 
Molzten at Fullback
Taumata or Lui at 7\. The battle will begin in the trials for this position.
I would happy for either of them as they both have the potential to provide stability within the halves and help Marshall out. I might pump for Lui just because of his kicking game.

I think that's how it will be played as well but i would much rather moltzen @ half & Taumata @ fullback as for Tuiqiri i would be suprised to see him playing fulback with no pre season under his belt I think he will be our fullback in 2011

Tim Moltzen will be Full back
Tamauta will be the hlaf back.

that is where they have been training

Works for Me this way… Whats the go when Lote gets here. Do you have some inside info here??

I doubt he will be on the wing for long if at all... Or is it a case of Daniella, Brown, Ryan and other Junior wingers start looking for a new club etc
