Message: [QUOTE="Foordy, post: 2483601, member: 1769"] [b]Re: Corey Norman to walk away from lucrative Eels Deal.[/b] if he has changed his mind despite coming out recently saying he would honour his Eels Deal, i think Locky would have convinced him that the best thing for his career ATM is to play fullback rather than 5/8. For those that can remember Lockys early fullback days, he was never the best defender at the back, nor was he the best under the high ball. but he could spark our attack from anywhere on the ground. His work ethic and natural talent turn him into the best in the world (bot attack and defence) I do see similar qualities in Norman that Locky had in his early days. now i'm not saying that Norman has as much talent as Locky did at the same age, what i'm saying is that i think with some hard work and determination (especially on the defensive side of being a fullback) that Norman could turn into a great fullback. he is already showing some good signs in attack. Later in his career, he may even be able to follow Lockys lead and make a switch to the halves, but IMO, he should develop his game at fullback. apart from the money, the only reason i can see him going yo the Eels is that he won't have any competition for the 5/8 role so no matter how poorly he plays, there wont be a great fear of getting dropped.
