Great game today. I wouldn't swap him for anyone.
Yep. Only one game last year. Manly debacle.Fitz said in the presser it's only about Will's 6th or 7th game with Nicho and Trindall. It's does take time to get the spine synced on the same page.
There are a few good country fullbacks. Kennedy, Edwards, Drinky.I wish we still had City Country before Origin. I reckon he’d carve up as Country fullback
I didn’t think about Edwards…. Actually didn’t realise his country backgroundThere are a few good country fullbacks. Kennedy, Edwards, Drinky.
I think given the "exhibition game" style of CvC in the final years, if it actually happened I reckon they'd just pick all 3. Drinky at 6, Kennedy bench, move Edwards to wing for a a while.I didn’t think about Edwards…. Actually didn’t realise his country background
He's solid without being spectacular , which works within a good team .

I think sometimes we think of the Panthers system just churning out local kids, but they've got a few country boys in there.
One on one defence is a nice to have in a fullback. There are very few in the comp that are good at it. It's way more important that they count numbers and organise the line effectively.Solid and safe as houses under the high ball......but very awful one on one defender.

Turbo, Gutho and Teddy are probably they only really strong defenders one on one IMO.
Yeah no doubt he can be better in areas. I guess was more just pointing out that strong 1 on 1 defence is more the exception than the norm for fullbacks.He seems better defending a player running straight at him but I'm glad he's not a winger cause his defense on a player out wide running to his outside is shoddy as. It's like he isn't committed , either that or his technique is really bad. I don't expect him to smash some massive winger in motion but how about a legs tackle or something, try to take him into touch.
I would rather make that sort of tackle than some monster running straight at and over me.
Last time he tried a one on one tackle he knocked himself into next week.One on one defence is a nice to have in a fullback. There are very few in the comp that are good at it. It's way more important that they count numbers and organise the line effectively.
