He does not actually think he's Billy slater. He thinks he's in the same ball park as him. Jesus Christ people get it wrong around here. When statements are fairly obvious.

I get what you're saying. He thinks he's actually Billy Slater.

 

[Homo man69]

No, the more suitable wingers move to fullback. Hayne played fullback throughout his career to increase his involvement. But we didn’t do that with Radradra so why would we necessarily do that with Hayne. Like Arthur said, we don’t need him to do everything now, which means we don’t need to move him into the spine just to get the ball into his hands. We can play him out wide where he is better suited.

I said 'usually'. Again you have misread my comment to your own advantage. The better wingers USUALLY go to fullback eg Slater, Holmes, tuivasa sheck, Hayne,Dugan,Folau, Gordon,French. Ofcouese not EVERY winger goes to fullback. It's just most good ones USUALLY go to fullback.

Oh man I'm trying to watch better homes and gardens with the family and they wonder why I'm sniggering at my phone. I've tried to claim Dr Harry is actually a very funny bloke.

I reckon Jesus Christ people get it wrong in many places, not just here

Why would he be in a ball park with Billy Slater? Are they taking up baseball together? Will there be an inspiring movie?

You're getting cause and effect mixed up. The better fullbacks just often start on the wing, because they have the physicality for wing before they are ready to be NRL level fullbacks.

I reckon Billy wouldn't mind another Dally M.

 

[Poupou Escobar]

If Radradra had played fullback in recent years he probably would've won a Dally M as well, but we would've won fewer games. The reason is that in a strong team you want safety and attacking involvement from a fullback, whereas in a weak team you likely just stick your best attacking outside back in the 1 jersey and shovel the ball to him when nothing's on. The fullback in the second scenario is likely to score more Dally M points, but play in a worse team.

No-one is going to buy that.

All those players were fullbacks coming up through the grades though. They just started out on the wing in FG because it's a way to ease them into playing the top grade (or because there's already someone else playing fullback).
Radradra, Mansour and Rapana are three of the best wingers in the game, and they have not been moved to fullback.

I've just noticed you mentioned Folau. Not sure why. He was a centre for Melbourne and Brisbane who played on the wing for rep teams. He didn't play a fullback role until he went to Union.
