How can you be the best ball playing fullback in the NRL without playing first grade? He may be a level above NYC players that makes him look like the best, but that will mean zip when he makes his debut.

Both good kids with lots of potential; comparing them at this stage is hard.
However... Duggan has the size advantage but gee wizz Locke can go.
I think Duggan will really be a good fullback but Locke could be a star. (This will depend on where he is played and how much he bulks up.)

Look forward to seeing more of them.

I am a Warriors fan and Kevin Locke is our brightest rising star- but we really haven't seen what he can do at fullback in first grade yet. Dugan, on the other hand, we have seen.

Actually what excites me the most about Dugan is that, even though his form was so good that he made more metres per game than any other player in the NRL and was statistically behind only Jarryd Hayne as far as fullbacks go, we really haven't seen everything that he's capable of yet.

Josh Dugan just has so much potential it's frightening.

Darius Boyd is better imo , hayne hasnt really done anything against good defensive teams who turned up to play in fact he goes missing

Hayne reading of the play in defense is very questionable

He certainly managed to tear the Dragons apart in the first week of the finals.

The dragons didnt really turned up to play,neither did the goldcoast,

When teams turned up TO PLAY , as the storm did in the grand final and dragons in round 26, hayne was no where


A good fullback even though out class would try no matter how the opposition plays, imo hayne doesnt if he isnt going to do damage in the game, he gives up

Ah it's Gaba, I should have known. When Parra win, the opposition didn't turn up to play. When they lose, Hayne lost the game single-handedly because the opposition turned up. Gold! :lol: :lol: :lol:

How would u know considering he hasn't played in the NRL...talk it up...

I will, thanks.

Dont have to be a rocket scientist to see he has elite ball-playing skills for a FB. Whether that translates to a good career, time will tell. Saying he has great skills has nothing to do with thinking how he will go in the NRL.
