Do they want to have three knowing that probably Richie Mwanga, if we are being honest, will get there through an injury at some point?

And there's going to be an injury, TJ, at some point.

So do you take two with that risk, thinking that Richie will come in at some stage and you think that's enough?

Or you bring whoever that maybe that does miss out, comes in at a later stage through an injury?

I'm not too sure.

I think I can speak personally as a nine as well, TJ, when it comes to your drivers, really, and how long it does take for you to be able to get the understanding of game management.

And you don't get that at training.

You can do as much training as you want, but I think it takes about 40, 50 games, I reckon, professionally, to get somewhat of an understanding of what it looks like to be able to control a game.

Because I think you are right.

When you are at school, it's more like, how can you attack?

How are we able to, like, you know, use your own skill set or your own X factor to be able to influence games?

But, you know, at Super Rugby level, even at NPC level, and let alone international rugby, like, there's so much when it comes to game management and understanding how to put your team in the right positions and do the right thing at the right time.

So, you know, that's what I always find when it is for young players coming through.

It's always hard that transition period out of school, even under 20s, because you've got to play 40, 50 games, I believe.

Take away Alex Pudger.

I think the way that he has come and been able to unlock the game from such a young age, he's probably a little bit different.

But I think it does take time in that game management role to get it right.

So, yeah, I think it does start at that schoolboy level and it's a little bit different now when you're coming through the system.

Look, mate, I think with the way they did play on the weekend, and I think I said last time, it was all dependent on Will Jordan.

And I'll say the same thing again.
