World's Top Ten Fullbacks

[chrisD]

Bowen is best in my opinion.
Look at 2012 season. he even beat Thurston in try assists and tries.
Grossly underrated player.

There's been a whole offseason since then, he's past it.

 

[LeedsRhinos]

Bowen isn't even top 10 anymore, he'll be playing for a bottom half team over here next season.

 

[Western_Eel]

[rnb11]

Slater
Inglis
Boyd
Bowen
Stewart
Hayne

The rest don't even come close

 

[flamin]

Tomkins is better than Boyd and Dugan.

 

[rnb11]

Most common misconception ever: You're only good if you score 100 tries. Boyd's efforts in getting the team on a roll, in defence and setting up tries is priceless.

 

[DIMEAST]

Inglis
Slater
Barba
Hayne
Tomkins
Stewart
Dugan
Bowen
Locke
Boyd
Robinson
Gordon
Minichello
Zillman
Norman
Moltzen

Also even though this is about on-field ability people simply disliking him will affect how he gets rated.

 

[Masoe_eats_babies]

:lol: anyone without Tomkins in their top 5, let alone top 10 :roll:

 

[POPEYE]

Presuming the team they were playing against was equal to the team they were playing in Slater's defence just keeps him in front of Inglis, Stewart clear of Boyd, rest follow and Barba's defence leaves him in no-man's land

 

[Ulysseus]

Hard to measure but for those saying Boyd is shit because he doesn't score tries need to look at what he at least used to create.
Wish we had kept him at Saints.
Hayne on the other hand continues to trade off 12 good games in 2009.
Darius on the other hand has two premiership rings..................

That's last season champ. I think he's genuinely dropped significantly this year.

 

[Iafeta]

From this thread, I can see Michael Gordon is grossly underrated. That guy is a terrific player. Hard worker, always making massive metres, always backing up, and an excellent goal kicker to boot (Excuse the pun).

Grossly underrated player.

If it was based on last season bowen would be number 3 behind only inglis and slater, been a bit quiet this year, but I agree underrated. Should have been the number14 for qld for the last near decade consistently. I think he should be the 6 for the cows, he has the entire package.

Who tf is tomkins?

 

[Iafeta]

England fullback. Probably coming to the NRL next year, Warriors favourites to sign him. Plays for Wigan.

 

[bellyache]

There are no genuine fullbacks in the NRL..

 

[Special K]

Gordon needs more love. He is fantastic in a shitty backline

 

[Bring it home Knights]

I'm surprised how little people are rating Boyd. He'd be one of the leading fullbacks for try assists and also for safety under the kick.

 

[Tone83]

I don't believe boyd should be in the nrl so...
