| Quote BrisbaneRhino="BrisbaneRhino"Have a look at the kr game and the tries they scored. I did and he was rubbish. NRL? I can name 25 better fullbacks here, including a whole bunch who don't even play there regularly.
I can only assume he's the same sort of once in a generation player as Jordan baldwinson and daniel smith to name a couple of others you swore blind would be superstars. Let's hope this time you're eventually right.'"
I have never in a million years said any of those players were once in a generation players, so stop making up nonsense. I don't believe in this rubbish of once in a generation, as I think there is always players capable but depending on the right development and coaching.
So back to the subject in hand. I did watch Thursday, and I saw clearly him making a miraculous try saving tackle on the line, which you state he can't do. I also saw him fall off a tackle on the line, of which his team mates were also equally to blame for the try scored. I also saw the amount of positive clearing runs he took where his team mates were shy to work, and the amount of kicks he took, which as I stated also included for dealing with situations that your right winger should be.
You can't name 25 better fullbacks, unless you want to talk utter nonsense, based on a silly opinion to back up your agenda. You could certainly name a fair few though, and so could I. He is certainly no Tedesco and never will be, but plenty of poorer players even at their peak have played plenty in the NRL, and lets not kid ourselves not.

| Sorry I was wrong - there are more than 25 better fullbacks today in the NRL:
Darius Boyd, Jamayne Isaako, Anthony Milford (Broncos); Ben Hampton, Jordan Kahu, Michael Morgan (Cowboys); Gareth Widdopp, Corey Norman, Matt Dufty (St George); Moses Mbye, Corey Thompson (yep him) (Wests); Will Hopoate, Nick Meaney (Canterbury); Dylan Edwards, DWZ (Penrith); Clint Gutherson, Bevan French (Parramatta); Kalyn Ponga, Connor Watson, Kurt Mann (Newcastle); CNK, Jack Wighton (Canberra); Alex Johnson, Greg Inglis (Souths); James Tedesco, Brett Morris (Roosters); RTS, Peta Hiku (Warriors); Tom Trbojevic (Manly); Jahrome Hughes, Cameron Munster, Scott Drinkwater (Storm). Then there are the currently "indisposed" NRL fullbacks - Val Holmes, Ben Barba and Hayne.
Fullback is a really bad position to argue relative quality vs the NRL. I would absolutely love it if Walker becomes as good as the bottom half of the above list, let alone the very top. And I also hope that if he does its with Leeds.

This is spot on.
The same is also true for George Williams and NRL halfbacks.

So you're basically naming anyone in the current NRL who has played FB ever?
