I don't care. It aggravates me gosh darnit.

No coronation until you win a ring or do something comparable.

Does anyone else have the feeling HSS will start at fullback?

Probably lacks fitness for it considering he’s only been back for a few weeks.

No I don’t. He’s a centre or winger. He can handle fullback at a pinch. I’m a big fan of HSS, but last time I saw him there he didn’t go that well.

Didn’t he spend most of his junior football at fullback? I feel like he’s more a centre then either, I’m a little concerned about Rapas fuel tank playing fullback with his age and style of play.

I guess being our 4th string it is what it is.

He was a centre in junior football.

I’m confused - he can handle fullback or he can’t?
Ata Mariota’s #1 fan. Bless his cotton socks.

Put it this way... the last time I saw him play at fullback was in the 2019 Jersey Flegg Grand Final, so he can play there at a pinch. But it certainly wasn't his best game. So I wouldn't be selecting him at fullback.
