Message: [QUOTE="Ari Gold, post: 2590681, member: 1917"] If you go back a year or two you will likely find some posts from me really supporting Chambers as an Origin guy. But for me he's not really improved over that time, particularly in defence, so I've backed off that statement a bit. The fact that I was previously a supporter though shows that it has nothing to do with his jersey. I don't think fullback is an issue at all. Ben Barba will hopefully find some form. If he doesn't then perhaps Milford, though his positional work isn't Origin standard yet and won't be if he plays halves at NRL level. Also, Darius Boyd is a fullback by trade so we could just slot him back there. And apparently Valentine Holmes has potential, though I've yet to see it (albeit I've seen him in very little outside of the U20's Origin). Frankly our big issue is the forwards. We'll have DCE, Milford, Barba all options in the halves with Friend at hooker, but who sets the platform the way Webcke, Civo, Scott, Price et al did for the current spine? Kennedy isn't stepping up and our other prop alternatives are quite old. For me that's the biggest area of need. [/QUOTE]
