He will play him at full-back because thats where he is best suited in this particular Parra team at this particular time. I think Hoppa will play Centre next year, but end up at full-back the year after and Hayne at 6. I think Hoppa will need a year back in the game (maybe a year and a half) before we see him at his best.
Love to see Marmin Barba get given ago at 5/8.
Hoppa's back in 2014 matey.
Coaching a state side when who can pick who ever you want is different to an nrl side where you need to balance your squad out because of the cap. Basically it will come down to if we have a player who can play 5/8 other then hayne who will add more to the side the a player other then hayne who would plAy fullback . Eg is the side stronger with hayne at fullback and Kelly at 5/8 then hayne at 5/8 and mullany at fullback. I just hope stuart isn't stubborn and is flexible with his thinking
Im dont think we can ever have Sandow at 7 and Hayne at 6. I think we need a steadying influence in the 6 who can at least organise a few things. From what I saw the last few weeks before tonight Luke Kelly I think will go pretty well in the 6 next year.
