Ok, Im starting Dally M threads cause its towards the end of the season, first one is the fullbacks. There hasnt been any standout fullbacks, but there's been a number of consistent fullbacks.
Who's Souths fullback, theyve had about 4 havent they. Newcastle are the same, Cooper, Thaiday, Hughes. Other fullbacks like Wesser, Webb, Patten have been good at times but only a few occassions.
I love seeing Wade Mckinnon play (wouldnt change him for no one) and as much as i hate the roosters i reckon Minachello and hodgo are the most consistent of all full backs in the comp.
Mini and Slater have been the best IMO and Hodgson has been great as well. McKinnon was out injured quite a while and was a little slow getting back to his best but he's really hitting his straps now
Look, I couldnt think of more than 6 good fullbacks this year, Hornby's been good but he's been playing 5/8, and half basically filling in for Barrett and Head, but still going. The others havent been great at all.
Luke Patten? Well I havent seen him do anything as good as the other 6.
The fullbacks that have impressed in my eyes are Hodgson, Stewart, Schifcofske, McKinnon, Minichiello, Bowen, Patten, Slater, Peachey, Hunt and there aren't really any others who deserve to be on the poll.
