I might believe that if you were to come up with a valid explination as to how I am wrong, and I don't mean about me trying to stir you either.
The definition you have of a running or creative fullback is idiotic. Running fullback: A strong runner of the ball, who doesn't have the ability to set others up. Is a good hole hitter and has good support play Eg. Brett Stewart Creative fullback: Not a good hole hitter but is very good at running backline plays and setting others up. Eg. Karmichael Hunt
Your definition of running fullback is pretty much exactly the same as mine. And to be honest what you have there is an organising fullback, which is not available in this sim. Creativity is different to "running a backline play" although obviously in a sim you need to use maths to play sport, which can never fully represent RL. I would be more then happy to say my knowledge of this sim is minimal (as I don't know all the constructs cribb has used) but so is yours tbf. In real life however creativity is not equal to running a good backline movement.
Twist much. Yeah part of being creative is the ability to create holes, which you or others can run through. It is also about decision making, like when you should attack the line, or when you should sit back. It is also some kind of X factor, an abilty to create an opportunity when one isn't evident. There are a number of ways to be creative.
Possibly you do, I don't really have acess to your wealth of knowledge do I. TBH I don't even know how we got to this point, when originally I was just having a go at you, In a very non serious manner.
Why is RL even coming into this? This is in the sim section isn't it? So it's a fact that StupidSteve is wrong, not opinion.
RL was coming in to this because as the official sim hasn't been released yet, and as it is endeavouring to be realistic, I would think real life would be the closest example to the real thing (the real thing being the sim :ninja And as rob has said that creativity is = to putting others through gaps, then indeed I will concede that at least in this sim that is what creativity means. Although my original point was that Yates would be better with a creative half rather then a creative lock because he would have more room to run out wide were he would be getting the ball from the half.
So Cribb, the guy who is making the sim already says stupersteve is wrong and he still tries to argue. WTF?! Is he a Brit in disguise?
I'd have Slater as an example of a running fullback, IMO Stewart is a creative fullback and I reckon if he was fully fit would be pushing Hunt in that ability tbh, maybe not as safe though.
The major argument really had nothing to do with the point that was regarding boob and his effect in terms of Yates. That is just how it started, I know boob will be a great player next season and that he will be very valuable In terms of his ability to set others up. I really was just trying to stir Boob with that one. Most of the argument lay In others understanding of each type of fullback, and how each type of full back is best served.
Stewart's passing ability is extremely underrated tbph, he'd be close to Hunt on that skill alone. People seem to forget some of the miracle balls Stewart has shot. Hunt can kick a bit you wouldn't want to be relying on him, pretty much good at grubbers and the occasional (one) field goal. Nah just being realistic, I love Hunt and reckon he probably is the best creative fullback in the league but very soon we'll see Stewart come into his own IMO.
