The Contenders: Fullback

[Tiger_Steve]

I think Hodgson is our next best option

Could probably still play better than most.

I don't know Spud , I here he has put on a heap of weight since retiring

Up to about 78 kgs now :smiley:

Oh really? He's way too fat now then :laughing:

Careful - he might get a run with Samoa in the next World Cup

 

[WT2K]

Tui will be walk up start and Kev as backup..

 

[Balmainian]

Anyone think Taane Milne or Moses Suli Could go well at fullback.

If Tui is to be a regular in our side he needs to make it at fullback, his kicking game isn't good enough to get him a gig in the halves. With his good footwork and turn of pace he should make a good fullback, not sure about his defence but all fullbacks in the modern game are pretty poor defenders (perhaps except for Kickin' Billy, he's not bad). Kev is a decent backup. As for Corey Thompson being an option…..he would get out-jumped by Gary Coleman. Whattya talkin' bout Willis?
Benji could've been an option a while ago but he wouldn't have the motor anymore.

Surprised Benji did not get a mention as an option. I think there would need to be a couple of injuries before he is considered, but surely would be as much a contender as Corey Thompson.

I agree, hopefully between Raynolds and Brooks our short/long kicking issues will be solved 😛ray:
Makes you wander how could anyone play Lawrence at 5/8??? Talking about Sheensians? :crazy
