Quote: Pieman "disagree with a lot of them, you need to have only fullbacks too.'"
No no no. There are lots of oustanding talents in many positions of tomkin standard and at the next level coming through in oz every year or are seasoned pro's I could have added more thaiday, yow ye, civonaciva. The point is tomkin is the outstanding talent in SL but the NRL is full of outstanding talent.
Outstanding talent ripping it up against outstanding talent week in week out.
The fullback thing you mention is a good point to discuss. There is still big debate amongst pies about tomkin as a 1 or a 6 he has a lot of development to go in which is his best position, defence, kicking and ball playing! Marshal has played winger, fullback, a fair bit at centre, 6 as well as 7! I didn't even put inglis on the list! His best position is regarded as fullback but there is talk of madge moving him back to 6 where he played a season and a half for the storm but he has played a lot a centre! Thurston is a 7 but is gonna be the origin 6! Boyd plays wing, centre , 6 but has been turned into a fullback but the word is he will be the knights 6. the best outstanding talents are diverse! Tomkin would be another awesome talent amongst many in the NRL with much development to go. In SL he is pretty much the only outstanding young British talent. Some of you pies already have him infront of slater? Who is regarded as the best. Tomkin is awesome but has some way to go.
