Bulldogs chasing L. Mitchell -11.5 million over 10 years

No way he can play FB. He's lazy enough at centre and has quite an interesting physique which doesn't exactly lend itself to the work a FB needs to do.
Did you see him in 2016? He would need to slim down a bit but he could be a pretty good fullback

This is exactly what people said about Inglis before he became one the most dominate fullback in the NRL for a few seasons.

GI had already won a CCM as a 5/8 when he transitioned and was a superior athlete. Despite that, his body still broke down and moving from centre cost him a few years career wise. The rorters needed a FB and a 5/8 last round and LM still played centre.

Also, if the Dogs sign LM for 10 years he'll have to play past GI's current age.

EDIT: Besides, this comparison is unfair on GI. He was far superior than LM at the same age.

Inglis was definitely superior, but at the same time just because he got a bit injury prone, doesn't necessarily mean Mitchell will too.
