Hmm I don't think that Brian To'o fella will make it as a winger he's too short
off topic - would it be possible to make a team of short players who left their mark on the game?

Bowen, Bizza, Presto & Alfie for starters - already hallmarks of a good team :)

Any team with Presto in it is an automatic win in my books... I mean shit, I named one of my sons after him

Critta won Dally M centre of the year in 2020.

Spending 2021 on the wing was more about the lack of a quality other option for the wing, while we had Momo who could do a role in ye centres.

Says more about the Dally M selections than anything.

He started the year on the bench. Again though you don't move guys that are locked in. Played both centre, Wing off the bench and fullback before becoming the player he is now

Nah he was bigger, and lacked the lateral movement of a back. That is why he was constantly exposed at centre and five eighth in his early to mid career. That's why the move to the 2nd row was perfect for him.

That is the issue with bigger 5/8ths generally. Even off those mentioned Wighton has moved around a bit

The idea talagai cant play 6 cause he is tall is one of the craziest things ive heard on this forum.

Hes 3cm taller then jerome. 2cm taller then munster.. 2 state of orgin halfs..

I havent seen a lot of him but what i have seen he looks a very capable ball blayer and runner.

Whilst im sure he hasnt been promised a position ive got zero doubt hes been brought as a jerome replacement.

I’ll probably watch him more closely in the next couple of weeks, including Friday night I guess.

If his signing is confirmed, it creates depth, options, he is going to have to have a kicking game if he is to be seriously considered as a 6.
