only problem then, for me anyway is thats a waste of a bench place. what good is hodgy and / or cudjoe on the bench.

i just believe we should have a strong bench of forwards to take over from the starting forwards that will tire during the game. thats just my opinion but brett hodgson on the bench would be a waste of time in my opinion, cudjoe and hodgy should start.

a good start for leroy would be this friday, give hodgson a rest for the semi and let cudjoe play the game at fullback! see how he has developed then take it from there!

i meant that if leroy could dislodge hodgy from the team he must be good at his job..its a long time since we have had competition for places like this

No way should Leroy play FB if Brett's fit.

It might seem obvious but the thing that's out of Leroy's reach is the experience that Brett has, especially in big games. That's why Brett should play every possible minute for us at full back between now any when he hang's up his boots. It's not just about being full back - it's about being captain and leader (inspirational in Brett's case) aswell. Even on the wing Leroy will learn so much about playing full back and the game in general just being alongside Brett.

no i understand that mate, im just making a point of my opinion which is there is no point having a fullback on the bench. i do understand your point though!

What he said.
