[QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3195054, member: 9052"] I've noticed BHunt defending inside of the second rower during origin and other times he's played hooker. I'm guessing it's to keep him away from the middle 'A' defenders to give him stamina in attack. I think it's a good approach to protect a smaller hooker, but it puts pressure on the second rower who effectively has halves on their inside and outside. I also recall Hodgo playing fullback in attack and center in defence (rotated with Hoggman)... worked extremely well and surprised I haven't seen other teams do it when they have a good defensive fullback that is completely inept on the attacking side of the ball. Someone like Isaako who appears limited with ball in hand, but good enough under high balls, etc. whilst we have someone like Staggs sitting in the centres. Not saying it should happen just giving a current example (also I don't know if Staggs has the ball playing to excel at fullback as it is). DEdwards also seems a prime candidate for fullback in defence, but center/winger in attack [/QUOTE]
