Message: [QUOTE="Emanon, post: 3393950, member: 13157"] That's kind of what I mean. Coaches seem to love those players that can play multiple positions, but it isn't seen by players as a lucrative option. We can argue about depth and whether there are too many teams in the NRL, but there will never be a shortage of prospects trying to make it as NRL players. Looking at the spine, the Fullback organises the defense, the halfback marshall's the attack and the Hooker controls the speed. With the Five Eighth needing to be able to play structurally or ad libbed depending on the situation. Being able to cover all four of those positions would take just as much talent as it would hard work. But being able to adapt to playing a different spine position every week depending on injury would be an awesome skill to have from a team and an individual players perspective. If a player put in the effort and pulled it off, would they be worth cap wise as much as a marquee specialist Fullback like Tedesco or Ponga? [/QUOTE]
