Moving thorman to FB and moving a forward to 1/2 back would be straight out of the peter sharp coaching manual and I'll be very disappointed in agar if he does it. It will also smack of a coach who doesn't have much faith in his players

he did last season


i take it nobody remembers hall at fullback last season

Your crack induced opinion?

not at all

i think byrne will be playing anyway

Leaving Danny to one side for now, silly boy



Hall showed enough in the Leeds friendly for me that he could do very well at fullback, he took some tough kicks and made great yardage on his kick returns. He only got called upon to make one tackle and did so fine.

I actually think if he has to play there to cover Byrne/Motu then he will present RA with a big headache as I think he will do very well in that position.

oi

My guess is that conversation may have taken place had Byrne been out for the match. As a short-term fix while he was assessed the Thorman option was the obvious one.

Not to me, my first thought was Horne to FB and Washbrook to SO. That way the halves have the same balance.

My first thought was Thorman as he has actually had some recent experience in the position and because Horne is the better half.



EDIT: Actually that's not true. My [ifirst[/i thought was "I wish we had Hall in the squad."

Thorman is a better organiser and his experiences at fullback are largely bad ones

Not on Saturday he wasn't.

Jesus....its a no brainer....Hall to cover at F/B for that match.....cats have a big pack and Hall running at them will tire them out.
