First draft - new sim player attributes

I might believe that if you were to come up with a valid explination as to how I am wrong, and I don't mean about me trying to stir you either.

 

Your definition of running fullback is pretty much exactly the same as mine.

And to be honest what you have there is an organising fullback, which is not available in this sim.

Creativity is different to "running a backline play" although obviously in a sim you need to use maths to play sport, which can never fully represent RL.

I would be more then happy to say my knowledge of this sim is minimal (as I don't know all the constructs cribb has used) but so is yours tbf.

In real life however creativity is not equal to running a good backline movement.

 

Twist much.

Yeah part of being creative is the ability to create holes, which you or others can run through. It is also about decision making, like when you should attack the line, or when you should sit back. It is also some kind of X factor, an abilty to create an opportunity when one isn't evident. There are a number of ways to be creative.

 

Possibly you do, I don't really have acess to your wealth of knowledge do I.

TBH I don't even know how we got to this point, when originally I was just having a go at you, In a very non serious manner.

 

RL was coming in to this because as the official sim hasn't been released yet, and as it is endeavouring to be realistic, I would think real life would be the closest example to the real thing (the real thing being the sim :ninja And as rob has said that creativity is = to putting others through gaps, then indeed I will concede that at least in this sim that is what creativity means.

Although my original point was that Yates would be better with a creative half rather then a creative lock because he would have more room to run out wide were he would be getting the ball from the half.

 

The major argument really had nothing to do with the point that was regarding boob and his effect in terms of Yates. That is just how it started, I know boob will be a great player next season and that he will be very valuable In terms of his ability to set others up. I really was just trying to stir Boob with that one. Most of the argument lay In others understanding of each type of fullback, and how each type of full back is best served.
