If you were to tell a Manly Sea Eagles fan in 2021 that the fullback spot was up for grabs, they would have laughed you out of the room.
However, this is the exact dilemma head coach Anthony Seibold has found himself in this year, and it seems like he is about to make a major call on the decision.
Tom Trbojevic made his return to fullback last week after a short stint in the centres, following an injury to Lehi Hopoate's shoulder that ruled out the young star.
Although the Sea Eagles faced a heavy loss to the Canberra Raiders during Trbojevic's comeback, the former Dally M winner appeared comfortable in his position, a fact noted by Seibold.
'Turbo' is reportedly set to retain his spot at fullback this week, according to The Daily Telegraph.
In a bid to keep the club's slim finals hopes alive, Seibold will end his experiment with Hopoate at fullback, opting to place the returning star on the wing instead.
