Sydney Roosters

All this make-shift fullback talk reminds me how extremely worried I am about the ever increasing possibility of Ferguson being our fullback next year.

Can't say I remember his games for Canberra at fullback but they unsurprisingly never seem to get a good review from those who do. He's just such a loose cunt.

 

Paki Afu, used to play 20s for the Dogs. Then made the mistake of of signing for Parra.

One of POS's project players, he signs a couple every year. Seems to have a pretty decent strike rate too tbf.

 

Nah he's at least another year or two off being ready for First Grade. For a 17 year old who was still eligible for SG Ball to have the year he did in the 20's is awesome but it wasn't any where near the standard you'd want from someone who's about to graduate to Firsts.

 

Pretty excited to see how Hastings goes this year, I think he's got all the potential to be the best half to come out of NSW in a long time. Genuine ball player with an extremely high workrate and a good all round game. Watched him live tear up a few NSW Cup games for Newtown in 2014 and been sold ever since, has good vision which is a rare commodity these days.

On the opposite side I think we're so royally fucked at fullback, none of Ferguson, Mitchell or Slaimankhel have me feeling any kind of confidence. No matter which way you slice it there's just no good outcome IMO.

 

Nah if they want to throw a kid in the deep end, it'll be Latrell Mitchell.

Nikorima will be used as a utility & depth for the halves.

 

We've had multiple opportunities to sign better halves than Farah if we wanted to use Hastings as a fullback.

Sounds like some lazy journalism if you ask me.
