Our 2024 fullback is…

[CQDog]

Lol didnt know that. I did see someone say that young hooker who we delisted mid year would be the next cam smith hahaha forget who

That was @Bulldogsteve he said Brandon Clarke was going to be the next Harry Grant. Can’t believe people take that clown seriously

You may well be right, that Crichton is a better centre than he is a fullback, but that is irrelevant. What is relevant is is the team better with him at fullback or centre? To answer that we have to consider who else will be centre or fullback and what effect that has on the team as a whole.

If Crichton did play centre then who plays fullback? The 2 obvious choices are Taaffe and Tracey, with my view that Taaffe will be in the running for halfback and will probably spend the off season training in that position and also physically conditioning for that position. To me that means Tracey is the most logical choice as alternate fullback to Crichton.

Personally I believe that Tracey is a better centre than fullback, he has far more NRL experience at centre, in fact 3 times as much and only played fullback when Edwards was unavailable.

I would also consider that Crichton will spend the whole preseason training at fullback. plus trial/s, that's what "given first chance" really means. Which would mean Tracey will spend most of the preseason NOT training at fullback.

With the above in mind, I am of the view that the team would be superior with Tracey at centre and Crichton at fullback. which is the only thing that is relevant.

Plenty of water to flow under that bridge before the season starts.

Crichton's defence and general centre play is what we desperately need and the only way I would play him at fullback is if we had no viable alternative. I think Tracey is very viable. But who knows how it all pans out. I just hope they all stay healthy.

Mail was wrong just admit it.
Now To’oh is your proof?

Mail was good bro. Luai apparently even had photos done in our gear in prep for announcement (the jersey To’oh had on was the one). U cant buy the 2024 jersey yet he got it off luai. Richardson got us late credit to him

So your mail was good and we signed him on OVERS back in October. Did we release him from his contract?

Scored all those tries playing centre, I say leave him there where he is arguably the best in the game.

This signing is going to be huge for us. The only reason I’m not super excited is because we have probably the worst middle rotation in the comp. Definitely shouldn’t have any trouble scoring points inside 20

Which one of those tries couldn't he have scored from fullback? Noting that he played both on the left and the right side, as a fullback would and should.

To be fair, the bloke who works/worked with Gus as his right hand man in scouting said that on radio about Brandon Clarke first.

 

[Dyldog]

Fullbacks generally don’t attack one in from the winger where the centre is positioned in attacking situations.. and he’s not our best fullback option.

Why haven't you changed your user like the other mods?

not haze perham.........please.......

I agree, whilst he can play fullback and he’d be an upgrade on Perham in the no.1 jersey, I’d leave him in the centres. We have other options at fullback.

I’d put Burton at no.1 but he’ll need to be fitter than what he is now.

No one has mentioned this but Burton was one of the players complaining about the training load last year. He needs to pull his finger out and play to his potential.

Now you're talking, Burton @ fullback

So hes just a parrot for whatever he hears on radio. No critical or independant thinking skills

After that amount of snitching you’re doing on reporting posts how long before you report your own post right here
