And I'm not shyt stirring or being a wise ass! You know I'm not a fan of this guy, but... This is a dead set question:

Can Rix be invented as a full forward?

Endurance, strong, can maintain fwd pressure. As a ruckman, Rix Sux Rux - no doubt. I recall Stan putting Loewe at FF saying that the best thing was to have him run one way. Could the Rixter do the same?

Just a thought.
Doesn't even kick to a contest....Let alone towards the goals.

Saintsational has just reached its lowest point... Debating Rix to FF, with a comparison made to Loewe!!... :shock:

Maybe when we play the dogs, it can be Minson v's Rix, let the best FF win...

Why a low ebb???

Just an idea for discussion. Read it correctly.

Alves stated word to the effect that Stewie was bst running towards the ball. Hence by sticking him in the square, he would run in one direction.

My comparison (as you put it) is what if Rix only had to run towards the ball. Simple.

Never did I compare them as players.

Get it right. Thanks.


The lid is off after Round 2! Enjoy the journey, coz you just don't know where we'll end up. Live for today and seize the moment.

I think everyone agrees Rix is not a great ruckman, just average at best, i don't know why then anyone would think he can make a good full forward....no chance of this happening imo.


Happiness is a warm pie!

Different possie. different game style... different requirements. That's why.
