I'd think Hastings to fullback, at least he has spark

Agree he has spark, better is the utility imho

 

[Kevinward777]

Maybe we’ll get Dylan back. If not I’d give Tom Wright a go at fullback.

Dylan would push Parker out of 3/4 if he is back? So does not change fb?

 

[qldeagle]

How would Parker go at fullback if Dylan joins us

 

[manlyfan76]

How would Parker go at fullback if Dylan joins us

He would give 100% no doubt.
Better on the wing with Wright, M at fb maybe

 

[manly al]

Doubt if Hastings would be moved to full back and maybe a bit too bold for Baz in selecting Tom Wright there . Probably Matt Wright and if Dylan is not ready there of course would be a wing vacancy so that would be interesting . Maybe Anderson or Tom Wright to be considered there .

 

[Tomay]

Whoever fills in at fullback has to have a lot of experience at the position. Hastings, Anderson and M Wright are really the only 3 options.

Don't see Baz putting Anderson there with no FG experience. If Anderson were to come in I'd imagine Baz would ease him in on the wing. I expect Baz will go with the safety of M Wright at FB if Tom was out.

 

[Ned]

Tanginoa and Siro out for the season both with ACL tears!! The hits just keep on rolling for us.

 

[ALinda]

Considering M Wright played fullback quite well against the Titans last year, I'd be inclined to move him there again. If Dylan returns, put Parker on the wing, if not bring in T Wright or Anderson.

That"s definite Ned ? If so shocking news . [ April Fools day or not]

Tom T out for 2 weeks as well

 

[manlyfan76]

So we are down to 26 players, surely Todd will allow us to bring players up from outside the "top 30"

 

[Mataiforever]

Matt wright playef a game or two for us last year i recall, and was one of the best in the team when in the position. Cant remember who against but i remember him getting high balls all game and didnt drop it at all. Mr reliable.
Hopefully we get to see jade or t wright on the wing / centre.
But is dylan back? I remember seeing a while Ago he was pinned in for round 5

 

[Bird of Prey]

Mat Wright to fullback and Anderson to the wing. Forwards will need to stand up and be counted but I’m sure we can fill the gaps.

[Class of 96]

I’d be comfortable with Parker or Wright to fullback. Possibly Uate to centre? Won’t have to stress about him coming in from his wing.
