Message: [QUOTE="schmix, post: 2544655, member: 1780"] I remember when the Broncos were absolutely flush with world class wingers for about a decade - Carne, Hancock, Sailor, Tuqiri, to name a few. Was I too young at the time to notice, or was there no talk of any of these guys wanting to play in another position? As far as I can remember, a winger in the 90s and early 00s (and probably earlier) was happy to be a winger. Now it's a position in which players seem to be happy to bide their time for a few years before moving into a "real" position like centre, full back or second row. How did this happen? I feel like the position is considered the lowest of the low in the rugby league world - "you don't need to be tough or skillful, you just need to be able to catch a ball and put it down". No wonder guys like Hoffman want out. The bloke is a true winger, but if that means being looked down upon by everyone else in league, I'd deny it too. [/QUOTE]
