Quote: nathan_rugby "When has Field specifically said he is a half back doing a job at fullback? I have only heard him saying he can play both, it just depends on the style of play.
French better option than Field at FB? Field is better in every department in my opinion. That isn't a criticism of French, it just shows the levels Field is showing this year. Pretty sure Field is/will be fine at putting centre/wingers away, why isn't he?
I would prefer it if they don't both just roam around. If Field is playing in the halves he ultimately will need to be first and second receiver. French needs to be ready to be the second/third out the back. It will confuse things too much if French and Field are swapping around and there isn't really a benefit tbh. They should stick to the roles they are given.'"
I'd leave Field at fullback personally. Made some great 1 on 1 tackles as well as the outstanding tries.
