@nostrildamus Unfortunately, the SANZAAR website only gives the total number of points scored. That includes goal kicking and tries, and it doesn't give the total number of attempts or missed kicks.

@nostrildamus Rugbypass stats are totally unreliable.
Even for goal kicking? They're probably not far away from being reliable for that IMO.
I'd say Dmac is a slightly better kicker than both RM and Beauden.
It certainly isn't a hindrance to his chances; he just needs to show he can run a backline and drive a team around a field with better kicking. However, I don't think he'll get that chance with the ABs until after WC (if ever).

@gt12 I think Perofeta might be the best goal kicker out of the four of them.
@booboo No, I agree. Jordie can do the goal kicking whatever number he has on his jersey.
Excellent point. At the moment, it's not goal kicking we need, it's kicking from hand effectively.

Yes that should be the least likely to be buggered, someone might like to go game by game to work it out, I can't be bothered.

Again, handy having JB's distance..

I'm surprised we have started using it on exits as we have a bunch of options and should be able to get it there.
Having said that, it might be something I'd keep for next year with a WC coming.

I thought RugbyPass had changed to the same stats as ESPN receive?

It is strange that BB's kicking from hand is so average, and that comes down to technique. DMac can kick the ball a long way for someone his size, Mo'unga is similar but with less range.

I'm honestly at a loss who to play at 10. Mo'unga, DMac and Beauden are all much of muchness. I'm starting to learn towards giving DMac a crack just to see if he can be a bit more consistent than the other two.

It's not just distance but control and choice. They all struggle with those factors, however I'd like to see what Dmac could do behind an AB pack.

Get on board the Havili train fella, plenty of room.

People forget that McKenzie is younger than Barrett & Mo'unga too, he's got a lot to offer at 10 in my opinion. It's clearly his best position.

@kiwi_expat Less than a year between McKenzie and Mo'unga.

That's pretty surprising, yeah! Wouldn't have picked that.
