    @ACT-Crusader Howlett could beat a man on the outside, Bridge is the king of the cutback and setup. Safe, predictable, great for Super rugby level.

    I don't think George is a lot like Doug, nor a lot like Caleb.

    I reckon he's more in the mould of Cory Jane or Israel Dagg.

    Nah, Zac Guildford. Speed, hard working, not elusive.

    Any word on how he handles his booze ?

    @Kirwan Wing-fullback, good under the high ball, low error rate, good defender.

    Jane and Dagg were well known for beating a player one on one, Bridge not so much.

    Huh? Dagg and Jane aren't even really of the same mould. Remember Dagg made his name on individual brilliance not on workrate etc.

    Bridge was a good selection last year, but his game didn't appear to transfer to test level.

    Noooo.

    Not aimed at DMac, just disappointed there's no BB.

    @Nepia Well, no-one is a clone...

    They were wing-fullbacks - as opposed to power wingers or out-and-out speedsters.

    They're the two who are as close to Bridge in my mind, as anyone.

    Not thrilled about that.

    I would have moved Jordie to fullback and brought in Sevu Reece.

    Thrilled about that. Reece can eat a bag of dicks and DMac will make the Fern match thread interesting.

    It’s just weird to pick such good attacking players to compare him against. Guildford was a wing fullback too, worked hard like Bridge and had excellent pace.

    I wouldn’t say either beat people with footwork, so a better comparison than Jane or Dagg.

    They also need a backup 10 which I presume is another reason to bring in DMac.

    Yeah, Guildford is probably closer. They're both great if put in space and they're both good at getting in positions to put in space.

    Last year I wanted Bridge to be our right wing/fullback style dude but they picked him to replace our attacking left wing.

    WTF???

    Put Jordie at 15 and Caleb Clarke on the wing.
    D Mac on the bench.

    That would make sense BUT obviously both Bridge and Clarke are primarily left wingers.
