Who would you rather, a FULLY FIT Tom Trobjevic or James Tedesco. Personally, Tedesco has better fitness and tackle breaking ability. However, Turbo's aerial ability, passing/playmaking game and try saving ability is far more superior. So for me, because Trobjevic is better in more important aspects of the game, I would rather Tubo.

Turbo when fit is untouchable. Love watching him play.
Tedesco every day of the week.
Fully fit was the question?
which full back is more involved in a game ---Gutho
Fully fit I'd want turbo in my team.
Tedesco is the better fullback and is still the best fullback in the game, but Turbo is the better all round player. In other words I'd pick turbo over Tedesco in every other position.
It is the same question as 10 years ago,"'would you rather Hayne or Slater at the top of their game?" Tedesco is more that Slater type, works very hard and is always around the ball. This means is is far more consistent week to week and does all the 1% plays that many fans take for granted. Turbo is more like Hayne. Not exactly in the way he plays but in terms of being a genuine X-factor that can break a game open on his own. I'd argue that he has more influence on a game for his team just like Hayne did. If Slater missed a game, storm would still be ultra competitive, similarly to Teddy now at the roosters. Look how much better Manly were with Turbo in the team, just like how shit eels were when Hayne didn't play. The importance players like Turbo and Hayne had and the effect on the players around them is unmeasurable.
With this in mind, personally I see Turbo as the more complete player at his peak but personally I'd take Teddy as he is that constant threat for a whole season and won't drift in and out of games.
Do our answers to this question vary, depending upon the state of the team?
Tedesco has been in form and mostly injury free for several years in a row. Turbo injury prone.
But also, Tedesco has the benefit of having been playing for a Roosters team good to great across the park. Tedesco is like icing on an already good cake.
Turbo appears to have the ability to turn an average team into a very good team. Maybe not a great team, but watching Turbo on the weekend, he was a constant threat. Wthe ball obviously, but also without the ball too, as Titans sent two to mark him so his decoy runs created space.
Both T's are great players. I'd probably take Turbo because he is more independently creative, but certainly if my team was struggling at halves or hooker. But if my halves and hooker were running a great show, Tedesco ices every half or even quarter chance.
PS: will the Blues have Tedesco, Turbo, Papenhuyzen and Gutho all in the team?!
I doubt Gutho will make the team. Tedesco will #1. Turbo either centre or wing and Papenhuyzen willl be #14. I don't see Gutho as a centre. I think there are better centres then him unfortunately.
The both pale into insignificance when compared with The Great One...
