Hoffman negotiations on hold

[nopatience101]

hes not the only one at the club who wants to play fb.

Isn't Kahu originally a fullback? Plus Granville and Copley, I suppose. Oh and Maran... never mind..

I was talking about Kahu.

Yeah Kahu said he doesn't mind the wing cause you get to score tries , hear that huffy!!!!

Hoffman at FB...

In his own 50 mtrs: Top 3 in the NRL
In the opposition 50 mtrs: Bottom 3 in the NRL

Hoffman on the 3/4 line is definitely a top player.
Someone needs to explain this to him!

 

[Browny]

People are only noticing Hoffmans form at FB cos he's gone alright defensively and scored a flashy try. Plus Norman was stinking it up back there

 

[Harry Sack]

I'm actually angry reading comments from brain dead fans in the Courier Mail article saying Hoffman is a better fullback.

Commentators go nuts when he cleans up a loose ball and all of a sudden everyone thinks he's hot shit, I don't understand it.

Stick him at centre, tell him to run off Barba and he'll be top try scorer next year - if that ain't enough then he can leave.

This. So fucking much this.

 

[Harry Sack]

So a FB postion has become vacant at the Cows....

 

[pagey]

Yeah I reckon this is his opening to ask for a release

Just whipped up a spreadsheet, Hoffmans stats are woeful for someone who played a full season at fullback.

Games at fullback, try, try assist, line break, line break assist, tackle break, offload, forced drop-out, missed tackle, error, penalty conceded.

Where did you get those stats from?

Sorted by games played at fullback:

Bu..bu..but he played well against the Eels.

Hoffman definitely had his worst season last year. I think even he admitted that.

SuperCoach stats from last year, they use Fox Sports Stats.

what is FDO again?

what is FDO again?

Edited my post for clarity, means their kick resulted in a forced drop-out/repeat set :winky:

 

[azza]

So those stats show while hes a safe defensive fullback, he offers nothing in attack while Barba offers quite alot despite a couple more errors in his game as a result. Show those to Hoffy

How do you think 2012 stats would go up against other years, did he have a full year in 2011?

He got injured towards the end of 2011 as well, we had Beale playing fullback for a good while.
