Gerard Beale the backup Fullback?

He's definitely got potential. No-one can argue that. Though, he has played only a handful of first grade games and not all of those were in the fullback position. NZ don't really have any other viable options. Nightingale could play fullback but he's one of the best wingers in the NRL at the moment. If they are grooming him for the eventual fullback spot, he can offer more than Lance eventually. But Australia certainly has the upper hand in the fullback position.
