Message: [QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3231647, member: 9052"] I think the issue with comparing Staggs to other five eights like Cody Walker, Wighton, etc. is that those guys have a passing game so the defence have to show their playmaking some respect Staggs hasn't shown a passing game that I can recall as yet... Cody and Wighton were playing fullback before 6 and at least showed some form of passing. I think Staggs kicking could get to the level of Cody or Wighton's short kicking game where they kick down the blind side or sneak a kick into the in goal, but Wighton kicked a couple 40/20's last year I believe... whereas Staggs will probably be limited to the dreaded 5th tackle bomb to a corner. Also I wasn't aware that he had played 6 in the juniors I thought he came through as a center or second rower... I really don't think we need to look at moving him away from center. He provides a lot of strike out there and isn't required to bring other players into the game (like a half is required to do)... in round 1 we looked to spread the ball early and play some expansive footy so if we are able to keep that style going then I think Staggs will get a lot of good early ball [/QUOTE]
