    I think number 6 suits him best..don't want him on the wing certainly.

    Maybe a replacement for Jimmy...no need to shop?
    Why does six suit him best? I've seen no evidence of a kicking or passing game or anything relating to play making other than his obvious brilliant running game.

      Only my opinion obv...but I think his quickstepping yet lack of real pace would best suit five eighth...his passing game would cut it but not sure about the slipper requirements as you say.

      • Hastings has a history of fullback doesn't he? If RTS at 1 doesn't work maybe that's an option? I say that going on understanding Hasto has history at 1.

        I am think Lockyer pathway.

          Very average passing game.

            There are some great talent coming through in the 20s and some new kids and there is no shortage for fullbacks and speed

                    I thought he was a winger? And is more in line to replace Tupou or SKD in 2016?

                    In speaking about RTS needing to prove himself at fullback, can anyone shed light on how long it took Mini to really make the spot his own after moving from the wing? I'm too young to remember his transition and i don't think it's fair to judge off highlights.

                      2003 in the world club challenge against St.Helens was his first crack at full back if I remember correctly. He adjusted so quickly it was if he had been playing there all his life. The rest is history.

                      Personally I think RTS will play full back very well, and he has had the added bonus of not only Minis guidance, but also has had a few games (albeit part time) there already.

                        Correct Mr Bond, he made a quick and seamless transition. Mind you fullbacks 10-15 years ago didn't have to play like a second 5/8th in attack, like they do nowadays so the transition from a winger to fullback would be harder these days.

                        If I remember correctly he was the Blues fullback in SOO either in his first or second season at Fullback and Kangaroo within 2 years as well.

                          That's all well and good.. What about the period until they're proven first grade fb?

                            Burgess is a winger, maybe you're thinking Jordan Tansey?
