No.
I can confirm (through a very talented tech) that Snoggy & Gherkin are different identities.

Weird that they are similar in character.

RTS is not a fullback and Robbo knows it. He just doesn't have the poise and smarts of a top line fullback. I think we will see a few dramatic changes in 2015.

A Union 1 is very different to a RL 1 and RTS is a winger that could play 6 if needed.

He's a 5/8, he'd kill it wearing the 6.

Chook.

no way in hell Fergo will be playing fullback for the Roosters, did anyone see him play there for the Raiders, he was about as good as Anasta was in his spell there, his positional play and composure under the high ball were nothing short of disasterous.

what is of most interest is what RTS plans to do after 2016 when his contract is up, wouldn't be at all shocked if he returned to NZ rugby, he would love to follow in SBW's footsteps and become a dual international.

for those who don't keep an eye on our younger grades, keep an eye out for Latrell Mitchell this year in NYC, if you think RTS burst on to the scene, wait to you see Latrell he is a dead set Inglis clone, just glides across the field effortlessly.

Another young player to keep an eye on as as well for the new signing in the NYC is Charlie Taylor strong kid who has come over from Manly, hearing he is good mates with Hastings and Milne, my mail on him is Australian Schoolboy last year, best player in the NSWCIS Team, NSW schoolboy rugby Rep. twice. He is an absolute flyer, watched him score an 80m try against Newcastle and no one could go near him. I would even have him up there as one of the fastest in NYC., I like him as fullback great under the high ball with explosive speed to match, but can cover anywhere as outside back with a lot of natural skill and great footy brain, will be dominant for the team to do well this season. Heard a lot of clubs were chasing, according to some insiders apparently loves it here and with Robbo.

A union 1 is a prop!

Would that best describe you mate?

pretty hard for RTS to be training the house down when he has been in Auckland on the weekend and now he is in Hawaii, seems for whatever reason Robbo is giving RTS extra time off similar to the 4 nations boys even though he didn't play in the tournament.

Funny about that I was only speaking to him last Thursday week right here in Sydney. He also said he was back at training I will also say that if there is any truth to this rumour it may spell the end for him at Easts I know for a fact he was happy to bide his time learning whilst Mini was at the back I doubt he will be to happy if he stays on the wing this year as he was pretty much given am=n assurance the fullback spot would be his when Mini retired

Do you think he will excel at FB if given the chance?

I personally don't think the Roosters have much option other than to go with Sheck, Fergo maybe doing some FB drills but I think that would be just to have cover in case Sheck got injured or completely lost form. The only other guy I would give a crack at FB to would be Nene McDonald. Latrell Mitchell for some people may also be a contender but IMO he is not ready for FG he hasn't even played U20s yet.

Turk has mad this forum so painful that I barely even post on here anymore but just to clear up a few things;

1 - Sheck hasn't been told he won't be playing Fullback
2 - Latrell Mitchell isn't even 18 yet so even if the club wanted to play him under the rules they're not allowed to

Move on ffs

When someones posting annoys me, you know its bad. I thought the silly prick was leaving anyway.
