Hoffman is a better fullback than Beale anyway atm. Beale has been great, but Hoffman has been doing the same since last year.
I actually think Beale is safer under the highball and much better in backline movements. Hoffman is a much better defender though.
I'd like to see David Hala off the bench again in the next round. He was awesome. Just drop Carlaw I guess, I deadset didn't even see him out there after the first 10 mins.
Haha yeah I noticed that too. Lui really discredited himself though. Wouldn't surprise me at all to see him bypassed for someone else the next time a game like this comes around.
AWTA. Beale actually reminds me a bit of Hunt, tbh. I think his spot is the centres though, particularly if he can work on his defence.
I recall Lui taking 1 hitup all night. Hala looks like he could be a Moi Moi type player once he develops and gets his back right.
I dunno, I feel safer with Hoffman catching bombs than Beale. Hoffman is a stronger runner too. But shocking ball playing skills.
