You do make many more typo errors than I do but I have no trouble understanding what you mean . . . I want to stay friends so I never point them out.

You wouldn't have become a notch if you hadn't resorted to hysterics once or twice in the early days. Nice to see you now retain composure

How about tommorow night I wear my Craig Bellamy wig and we make love.

Fullback but only if he's at 102kg, Jarryd Hayne plays around the 102 mark and Greg is about 3 inches taller. No use playing him out wide if he's not getting the ball, and no use playing him at 6 without a top 5 halfback.

Hahaha, A fat arsed pill poppin,Fullback,with a broken neck?? I imagine a fat four eyed armchair warrior, who thinks exercise is a to run to the toilet.

The implication was that I am multi-talented. Stick to the Jason Ryles photos, wouldn't want to think too much buddy :crazy:

I'd say centre or wing. Reason - players of his calibre need to have their rep careers considered in their contract negs, and therefore position is crucial. In Inglis' case he would not represent at either fullback of 5/8. He would at centre or wing, or as a wide running back rower.

He needs quality service too. At Melbourne, Cronk and Slater gave him that. In rep sides, mainly Thurston. At Souths, it was mainly Taylor, sometimes Sandow. Taylor game him good ball but not much running space. Inglis needs space, in traffic he's just a big truck. He needs space to use his fend, footwork and then speed. He has good ball skills, but is not a classical centre that will set up his winger aka Matt Gidley.

Inglis will not slim down again, even though he still has speed. One on one, he's a monster, and I'd love to see him on the wing outside someone like Cooper or Tahu. It will never happen.

His future will be back row.

Finally someone talking sense - I wondered how long it would be before somoene said "back rower" and mentioned the fact no one passed to him.

At the Storm the ball went to Inglis because they had the ball players to get the ball to him. Last season at Souths he was playing on the left side of the park in a team that passed left to right. Issac Luke and John Sutton both pass left to right. Taylor was the only person trying to feed Inglis and Inglis looked at his most dangerous when he got so f**king bored waiting to be fed he actually went and hit the opposition so f**king hard they dropped the ball and he picked it up.

He is a devastating tackler and given service he will be a devastating attacker - but he needs to be where he can get the ball and that is either as a right sided back rower (if he stays at Souths where Sutton and Luke pass to the right) or he plays left sided back rower or centre in any other team on the planet.

Playing Inglis on the side you pass away from makes absolutely no sense. It doesnt matter who plays left side for Souths if they always go right. Put your best players on the right so they get fed (no pun intended about Greg's ability to eat) dont starve them of possession and then whinge about them being shit.

No player can attack without the ball.
