Quote: danburge82 "As everyone knows it's because in this country RL is a minority sport, whereas in Australia it's second only to AFL and attracts some of it's finest athletes.
I would say that Sam is better than any of New Zealand's fullbacks though, which means there's a chance of beating them, on home soil at least.
Where would you rank Tomkins amongst the fullbacks of the NRL? Personally I'd say about seventh or eighth.'"
Josh Hoffman is very high quality.
Even the bottom five teams have good FBs
Marty Bowen I don't know where to start on your post but you clearly don't watch the NRL.

"Remember last time they were here, the Huddersfield Giants, they lost to a Luke Walsh drop goal. He's only scored four drop goals in his St Helens career has Luke Walsh and each and every one of them have been scored by Luke Walsh"[/quote:1h9um51j]:
Devastating with ball in hand, and a player that I'm sure just about every Rugby team in the world (either code) would love to sign, but not a full back for me. I suspect Wigan might have been better off spending their money on a fullback (or promoting from within if they have young player deemed good enough) and moving Tomkins to Stand Off as he is a far far better halfback than either of the two they signed.

Why because my phone's predictive text spelled Matty incorrectly?
You do realise I said "my personal" and "in my opinion". That doesn't mean it's cold hard fact.
But Inglis has the lot, literally. Nobody will convince me there is a better rugby player on the planet no matter what they say.
Then, I watch all the games Premier Sports air. Every week Bowen is superb at the Cowboys. Dugan is a fantastic young player. And the rest are like Supermen at times WITH GOOD DEFENCE to boot!
