Well Doueihi was awful at fullback, and it's a position that requires speed , i think the Tigers have already passed on that idea. Laurie, tried hard and was better, but not great. Stains has the size, and speed , and some experience and looks promising. It's a position that is critical, and if the above fail, it has to be the main aim of recruitment ,after sorting out the halves.
He wasn't awful at Fullback playing for Souths during the finals before he joined us.
People focus alot on the speed aspect but they also need to be a 5/8th & general.
The quality fullbacks have a super high work rate with the ball, ball skills with ability to break tackles creating doubt in defensive lines.
Manu & Latrell aren't players known as speedy but their other attributes tackle breaker & ball players are what drive them as being successful.
