Message: [QUOTE="Jason Simmons, post: 2551071, member: 8275"] So is the consensus that the idea behind Karmichael's signing, is an attempt to follow in Lockyer's footsteps, a player making the move from fullback to 5/8? Admittedly he never showed much to say definitively that he could manage it, but is it impossible and do we have a better option, given we'll likely move Barba there out of HIS best position IF KHunt plays fullback (assuming he signs?) I think Barba at fullback is THE best possible option for Brisbane and anyone else playing 5/8 will be better than having Barba there, given the options we'll have with Barba being out the back supporting and joining in attacking raids whenever he sees the opportunity. 1. Barba 2. Hoffman / Oates. 3. Reed / Hoffman. 4. Hodges / Vidot / Mills. 5. Yow Yeh / Kahu / Vidot. 6. Karmichael Hunt. 7. Ben Hunt. That seems a FAR better backline than we've put on the park for years now. Maybe not ideal (ideal would have DCE steering that backline around) but we're building from a low base and that HAS to have more points in it, than we've seen since Lockyer retired... [/QUOTE]
