is it because Hoffman's got his hand on a team-mate's shoulder, and he's saying to Hodgson
"ARE YOU LOOKING AT MY BIRD?"

Didn't William Webb Ellis pick up the ball and run, someone should really tell Rugby Union.

I think the days of strong, athletic fullbacks like Belcher and Jack have long since past.
Fullback play changed significantly when Lockyer started playing. look at the current crop; Coote, Duggan, Gardner, and not forgetting Slater. All small guys with great pace, who look to attack when returning the ball. |

Thanks Wire fans for some intelligent and constructive comments. Makes a nice change to read a thread without it descending to petty bickering and chaos as happens on most boards.

I don't think its size that would be a problem, its his decision making at times that could hinder him.
For instance he scored a good second try against HKR, but if you watch it back the Wigan winger had a stroll in to the line if Tomkins had passed.
Also he is devastating in broken play, but NRL defences are so much better organised, and if he wasn't in a team with a dominant pack like Wigan, again he could struggle, as I think his split second decision making regards to when to pass and not, isn't great.

Nope, sorry he is still a little turd.
Mind you he isn't half as annoying as Phil Clarke.

Agreed. I can't really grumble when he comes up with the goods but pretty soon nobody will fall for those dummies. |

i hate him but hes a great player and should play stand-off

Agree with this bit. Unless he learns to catch the high ball, he'll always have a massive weakness as a full-back. Think, long-term, he could be devastating at stand-off. |

To be fair to Tomkins, a lot of the best (and a few average) halves used to have a little nastiness/niggle/irritation about them
Gregory
Tomkins
Goulding
Bishop
Holding
Edwards
I'm led to believe, a certain Mr Murphy could be a bit of a b'5tard in his day.

You really don't need to look much further than Briers. Although he's not particularly nasty, he ticks the other 2 boxes.
I think it's a prerequisite of a quality half. |
