Good to see a straight line 10m back ready to fly past the kicker. |

the following full backs are not just better than Riley, but significantly better:
Webb
Wellans
Greenshields
Briscoe
Duggan
Richards
are we prepared for 7th best??????? g
Got to have players in the top 4 in any position to challenge for a cup/top League spot.

| Quote The Jigga Jigga="The Jigga Jigga"Anyone Know the reason behind Riley Kicking off today?'"
It’s a tactic a few teams are now using i.e full back takes the kick offs.
Leaves 12 players for the kick chase instead of 11, as the full back would not normally join the kick chase as it would leave him out of position.. |

Significantly more experienced too. I will admit I cande him after his performances against Wakefield and Caltalans, as long as he is consistent and doesn't go from one extreme to another, that is all you can ask.
Let him grow into the role. You can't just buy ready made players. |

| Quote Not against Azue though.'"
I don't think there are many fullbacks in the world that could have stopped a charging Azue from 5 yards out!..something of a mis-match
Incidentally Azue should have been tackled long before he even got to Riley. |

My first two main criteria when looking at fullbacks is - they can take a high bomb under pressure and that they are a strong one on one tackler. If a player isn't strong in both those areas i'm not keen on them playing in that position. |

Azue went in because there was 2 on 1 against Riley. He opted not to commit until late on as he was half watching for the pass to the supporting player. It was a try if he went to tackle him and a try if he didn't. nothing he could do really. |

He nailed somebody one-on-one. Can't remember who though. |
