Message: [QUOTE="Hamm.0, post: 2158350, member: 1852"] No doubt Slater dropped the World Cup. He doesn't run toward the sideline out of his in goal (who does that? I have only ever seen that done a handful of times, even through junior footy. It's an elementry error, which IMHO came about from our back 3 having this ridiculous belief that they are quicker than what they are. A fullback/winger always runs in-field on the return to give options on the ensuing rucks out [eusa_doh ), we are back up in the attack. Turning point. All bias aside, Slater is brilliant in broken play and has started to develop quite a decent passing game (despite what the usual LOLZ-prits on here will try and tell us), however he has that 1% moron element, where every now and then he will try to play above his skill level. Despite what the usual knockers will say (the usual Bronco-eyed LOLZ-prits); Slater is still the firstchoice fullback in Australia. If you don't believe that then I wouldn't want you selecting my side. Safe and dependable must always give way to attack, when you are looking for a fullback. I have agreed with this all year ethos. That said, all year I have asked, even in SoO, why we can't have both Hunt/Slater on fullback/wing, interchanging ala Hodges/Hunt GF 06. [/QUOTE]
