This is just going to turn into one of those where fans of each club will come on and put their FB in the top 5.
Rhys Hanbury? Really?
Shannon McDonnell? Really?
Jordan Tansey? Really?
We must really be struggling for FBs in Super League if the above are considered to be amongst the best in the division.

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.

Was first introduced to super league as a full back, had a few seasons out of position as half back, great attacking full back better defensively than Tomkins and Hardaker...........probably have him in the top 3. |

I'm amazed nobody is bigging up Greg Eden. He's the opposition's first choice when they're playing Rovers. Can concede tries out of nothing.

Not sure i would agree he is better defensivley than hardaker.ill grant you he had a couple of brainfarts against saints on monday but generally up until now he has been superb.great in the cup semi against wigan last year and the try saver on crabtree last week was first class.
Would agree top three though. |

stop contradicting yourself...your happy to use OPTA stats to deride Hodgson....the same OPTA stats would suggest Leroy Rivett had a pretty good game in the challenge cup final...you can't have it both ways.
Hodgson's distribution in the attacking line, his positional play in defence and his goal kicking still make him a top full back in the UK....and I maintain that he makes Warrington a better team when he plays. |

It would appear that there is a bit of competetion for this, so I ask, which clubs have a fullback who you'd rate as poor?

kearney has got to be in that list for me.
just goes to show where the Giants are lacking no one has mentioned grix as a top full back and have to agree really when compared to the full backs mentioned on here..we never replaced brett hodgson.

Is Grix really better than Greg Eden? |

Not bad for Superleague, then. Wello & Webb were great players on their day (and it looks like Wello isn't first choice at saints anymore) and Dorn has certainly given some decent shows over the years.
So really, the standard of fullbacks in SL is pretty good? |
