Gutsy and whole hearted player. I will do a thread on wingers next that exclude Tuqiri and Tuaiki and I reckon Corey will get plenty of love there.

 

H e played as many games for the Tigers at FB (22) as W (22)

 

Where would you rate him as Fullback?

 

 

4th or 5th probably, once you get past the top two and Bula, its a pretty dire list. Bula next best after the big two. Strangely enough, I think Mybe was a very good fullback with the one critical flaw that he couldnt catch bombs.

 

I think that flaw makes him a terrible fullback

 

yep. Number one on the prerequisite list

 

He had some nice rare touches coming through the middle in offense. I wouldn’t say he was a natural fullback…debate was always whether the moving around he experienced in his career hampered his development.

Oh of course, agreed and didnt want him at fullback, but that MAJOR flaw aside, he was a good FB.

He had an incredible and underutilised pass on him which was at its most dangerous from fullback.
