Same could be said of Barba...
Played five eight during his junior career.

Pretty sure I heard Grothe say he had retired for good on his rugby league week video thing that he does.
There's a fair bit of Mitch Brown hate in here...
I think he will make a great back up. Not a world beater, but very solid and does his job well without many mistakes.
Let's face it, he was good enough to play in Des' grand final team, so that already puts him above a lot of our backs!

and Ashford and Wright
Lockyer was shifted to 5/8 with a half dozen seasons of proven first grade performance around the time he was losing his speed at the back. Old fullbacks make good five-eighths when they're pacing out. Trying to turn Holmes into a five-eighth with little experience there OR in the NRL before he's even proven in his preferred position is a fools errand imo...
As for Barba, he was developed as a five-eighth and turned into a fullback for the NRL, so it's a very different situation. I agree that he looked a lot better as a fullback three seasons ago, but I reckon his better performances for the Broncs was as a 5/8.
So its best to put them there when they are slow.
f**k that i want a 5/8 with speed to break the line and go all the way.
What is this beale love, rank average.
Yep, sounds great, though I'm sort of wondering who can even come close to replacing TC's passing / kicking game...
