Quote: Mugwump "Hang on a second. I really don't think the standard of NRL fullbacks is all that high.

Take Greg Inglis for example. Magnificent player going forward. Under a high ball

icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif
This would be the NRL where Tomkins, who was generally known for being pretty solid under the high ball in Super League, has been much more challenged defensively?
The standard of fullback is higher than ever in the NRL, because it is now the most important position in the game. Dugan, Slater, Inglis, RTS, Brett Morris, Boyd, Moylan, Brett Stewart are all better fullbacks than Tomkins at the minute, a player who (perhaps next to Wellens) is the best fullback Super League has had.

This doesn't change the fact that NRL fullbacks routinely make a hash of high balls. Or the fact that Inglis looked absolutely terrible in the test series.

It wasn't two years ago when Ben Barba was tearing it up in the NRL. A worse full-back under the high ball I have yet to see!

Mugwump mocking mental illness for a second time - "You are mentally ill and I can't indulge your madness any more" Utter disgusting abusive remark from a keyboard warrior:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_44308.gif

Have you been watching the same NRL as me Mugwump? Most fullbacks seem pretty safe under the high ball (except Tomkins!).
To suggest Slater wouldn't be a success as a fullback in the super league is unbelievable considering the guy pretty much defined the role of the modern day fullback. Whereas Inglis is an absolute beast of a player who would score hat tricks most games in Super League against weaker defences. I don't remember G.I. dropping too many when the Rabbitohs beat us in the World Club Challenge icon_biggrin.gif
Or maybe you are suggesting that Super League has better quality fullbacks than the names that Saint #1 mentioned or James Tedesco or Lachlan Coote? Are you are basing your opinion based on former NRL fullback Matty Bowen's recent performance against us? icon_biggrin.gif

Good heavens if there's one position whereas Australia completely overshadow us (there's more of course) it's full back. The two best full backs we've produced over the past 20 years - Wellens and Radlinski would not have been in their top 5 selections at any given point during their careers....and 5 is being generous.

I forgot to mention Matt Bowen. A legend going forward. Great attacking player. But if anyone seriously thinks Matt Bowen only began to make a hash of taking high balls the moment he crossed the equator they are deluded. Bowen has ALWAYS been flaky under the high ball - especially when his teammates were unable to shield him from some of the bigger guys barreling in. No guy that small can ever be safe when you have players who are twelve to fourteen inches taller also contesting it. It's a physical impossibility.

The truth is you just don't see scrum halves constantly resorting to bombing the full-back time after time after time in the NRL. Kicking games are more evenly spread - some to the wings, some as diagonal grubbers, some as half-and-half etc. Whereas in SL you routinely see a full-back being bombed four or five times on the run.

Obviously I must be a fool to disagree. Inglis is pants and stealing a living at South Sydney and if they rightly let him go because of two poor performances in the green and gold every club would run a mile and sign Jordan Tansey instead. icon_biggrin.gif

This is getting tedious and we're going in circles.

To be fair, I think he's on about Richards' kick offs, which are top notch.
