    Yeah I know that. (That's called facetiousness.)

    It's not an overrated position at all.
     
  2. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    You know if a fullback gets put in the bin that a winger or centre usually goes back there?
     
  3. Fiery GR Smith

    Lol. Of course I do. That's why I said the "position of fullback". I was suggesting a scenario where it's a 12 man game with no fullback in position at the back.

    MF saying the position is overrated is the biggest load of rubbish I've heard in a long time tbh.

    (And you even questioned him about it too.)

    How do you think MF would rate it if Thurston played fullback?
     
  5. Boobidy BJ Gemmell

    I disagree with him to an extent regarding fullback, but I think it's certain players who play at fullback who are over-rated, not the actual position. Your scenario is retarded
    Haha, most important position on the field.
     
  6. Fiery GR Smith

    You're retarded for not being able to grasp a simple concept...but anyway...

    ...interested to know which fullbacks you think are overrated. Can I guess one is RTS?

    lol you've got no idea what you're arguing anymore.

    Your opinions are based on your allegiances, logic is an after thought.

    > call fullback an overrated position
    > Fy then says what would happen if there was no fullbacks?!?
    > gives example from other sport where field position is primarily determined through tactical kicking exchanges, rather than power running and defence

    Knowing how the stats are done that only says kick chases in the nrl are crap

    Thread turned to shit as soon as Fie started posting again...

    I think you and a few kiwis overrate RTS, I think he is a gun, but he isn't the best in the game, would maybe be top 3.

    Over-rated fullbacks Hoffman, Dugan, Barba, Gordon and Morris off the top of my head.
     
  12. Fiery GR Smith

    What utter bullshit. I am arguing that fullback is a very important position. Pretty simple.

    My allegiances have absolutely nothing to do with it. You think it's because the Warriors have a much better one now? (Thanks again btw) but that's completely irrelevant. Tomkins wasn't tooo bad (when he wasn't injury) anyway.

    (Using an example from union to argue the point was probably not a great idea, admittedly)

    STFU
     
  14. Fiery GR Smith

    Sick of idiots like [MENTION=2552]jazman84[/MENTION] saying "thread turned to shit as soon as FY joined in...blah blah"

    It's an opinion you moron. Either argue the point or fuck off out of the thread then. Seriously.

    This forum would be completely dead if I didn't voice my opinions on it.

    So go shove it up right your ass, [MENTION=2552]jazman84[/MENTION].

    Your opinions are generally really horrible on all subjects. That is why people always reply to your opinions. Arguing with you is like arguing with a religious person. At the end people just back away slowly saying "ok mate"

    :laugh: Except you never back away. You're quite confrontational, which is fair enough but makes your point completely redundant.

    My opinions are just far too unAustralian for the majority of the forum here and therefore not swallowed easily. Even though they're invariably bang on the money :cool:

    That might make sense, but most non Australians think you're full of shit too. So now all you need to say is they hate NZ and you're in the clear.
     
  18. Fiery GR Smith

    Some...not most

    And yet you didn't feel the need to mention that at all until after I did........several times. Yeah he's a great metre maker and getting your sets off to a good start on the front foot from kick returns is important. Which again begs the question, why so much emphasis on things like defusing bombs?
     
  20. Maroon_Faithful M Faithful

    Nup. lol. They're all overrated. Every fullback in the game barring about 3 are overrated as fuck IMO and it's purely because of what people perceive them contributing from that position.

    Probably wouldn't change my opinion at all because Thurston would make a terrible fullback.
