I want a halfback that has speed and length in their pass.
DMac?
Perenara at 10.
You know it makes sense

Reece’s passing from the base might be the best. He’s quite good in that area, making repeated efforts around the ruck then arriving to clear the ball.
The glee he showed at finding touch off the boot last night might suggest his box kicking game could be somewhat lacking…?

Folau fakatava I would imagine be called up if perenara is out

TTT?
Nah, his passing is nowhere near as good as it was when he made the ABs.
It was noticeable how slow TJP's passing was. Christie has a better pass but takes so long to actually pass the ball. If you are trying to beat the rush defence it starts with the service from the halfback.

Noah Hotham?
I suspect he may be close to getting picked. Not saying I would select him, but when he started looking like he belonged in Super Rugby this year he showed a handy running game, a crisp pass and the ability to clear under pressure.
He could be the backline selection version of Bell.

arguably less controversial - the pass is clearly there and the other options aren't doing particularly well. Bell wound up on the bench at times, and has some real issues in the core role (throwing).
Dont' worry though, the renowned thrower Corey Flynn will fix him

Bell's throwing is a weird one. Up to this season I don't remember it being a problem.

@Crazy-Horse He's barely played at professional level tbh up until this season.

Yeah, I was thinking NPC and in particular, when he played for the NZ Under 20's or whatever they were a couple of years ago.

TJ is out for a couple of weeks - Hotham called in as cover.

@Chris-B What's he actually achieved for a call up? Nothing
He looked much better this year than last year. He has an actual strong sniping running game. We need to transition to these young 9s sooner rather than later in my view. Bring it on.

yeah Probably the next best runner from the base behind Roigard, looking for something different than what they have I would guess.
