Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2583312, member: 1769"] unfortunately since we put all our eggs in the Milford for 2014 basket we don't have an ideal option ATM. I know many are calling for Kodi Nikorama to replace Hoffman at 5/8. but IMO not much will change, because he certainly won't add a passing game to the 5/8 position for us. you only had to watch the nines to realise that he never actually set anyone else up. it was always either running the ball himself (similar to what Hoffman does) or kicking a little grubber for himself. and that shows me that he isn't ready to be an NRL 5/8. being an NRL 5/8 means being able to set up your outside backs through either a kicking or passing game (and K.Nikorama hasn't shown he is capable of that yet.) and I think if you are only going to select a running 5/8 then Hoffman is a better choice because he has a better running game than Nikorama. I think with a few more games in the ISC Duncan Paia'Aua may be an option, but i'm not sure he is quite there yet [/QUOTE]
