[QUOTE="BroncsFan, post: 3615343, member: 9052"] I keep thinking why is Taruva talking to so many teams that already have fullback sorted. Dragons are banking on Sloan, Tigers have Bula, Knights with Ponga, etc. But the back up fullback component is an interesting one that I think will start to become more relevant for teams moving forward... mostly on the back of Manu slipping in for Teddy whenever he's out. Fullback is so important nowadays that if you lose a fullback mid-game or injury for a couple weeks (HIA, etc.) you could be stuffed, but if you've got someone in your full strength 17 that can slip in and you barely miss a beat then it is super handy... and I can see teams paying a bit extra for that insurance from someone you can play in your 17 every week. It's why I think Cobbo starts to warrant a bit more value compared to Staggs in that debate. We also have Arthars that can play some fullback and Sailor in the reserves, but it means we have cover for Walsh if he ever needs a spell. Ponga goes down for knights and their season could basically be over. He's a superstar player, but if they had Taruva sitting on the wing then he just moves straight into the spot and they aren't automatically done for the year... so I can start to see why teams are interested in him and not looking to play him at fullback.
