Hunt...gets up after every run. (unless hit by Frank Pritchard high)
A Hog?????????
You dont watch enough Bronco games.

Was he such a hog when he ran off Lockyer, made a break and passed inside to Gasnier who scored the match winning try some weeks back?
Yeah f**king hog...go watch re runs of the Brady Bunch

Greg Inglis. No doubt.

But Hunt doesn't deserve to be dropped, he has played very well. IMO:

1. Greg Inglis
2. Karmichael Hunt (Could possibly even rotate him and Inglis)
3. Justin Hodges
4. Mark Gasnier
5. Matt King

Looks good to me. Greg Inglis needs more ball. On the wing he is wasted. So he has to be used at fullback or centre.

Hodgess or Ingliss

they both do a god job

Hornby is gonna struggle to gain greenie points after last weekend,

I think most people are gonna judge him on his efforts playing halfback, which is not really an indication of how well he would play at fullback

Hunt is doing a good job for Australia. He's been one of our best players all series. Only player I'd consider to put ahead of him would be Inglis however Inglis hasn't been flash in his kick returns either which seems to be Hunts flaw this series.

Hodges has a good kick return however isn't safe in defence or under the high ball as shown against the Dragons and in the grand final where he got lucky.

After watching saturday nights game, even though i rate inglis at fullback, i would have to say hunt for sure, he had a cracker of a game and should be fullback in the final.

Inglis eh charlie?
He was there for 10 mins or so on the weekend and Australia lost alot of strike in attack.
Hodges is shaky under the bomb and is pretty much closed down when you kick to the left hand corners (see stg semi final)

So do you think Hunt is a better attacking fullback than ingliss?

Hunt is a better ball handler in a backline move..and he suits the Australian style of play.

Hunt has skill but not that of Inglis.

The reason why Australia lost attack when Inglis moved to FB was because Lockyer and Inglis have no combination, while Hunt and Lockyer do.
