Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

You look at Morby's try and how Billy Proctor just kind of beats that person in the kind of kicking, the hard ball gets in the scraps.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod

He's a massive part of that Hurricanes team and doing that every single week.

The big kick chases, all the stuff that requires a lot of hard work.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

know he does that very well and that's not to say that quintapai and geordie barrett don't do that but i think if you are talking around the midfield in stocks i just think those are the three guys that i think you'd have to think are really standing out and they're going to be in the squad so it's just depending if that billy or that quinn kind of positioning at center i think whoever's going to get that kind of third injuries will be based around what continues and for the next coming weeks but

You'd have to think right now, Jordy Barrett at 12, Quinn Depay has had a great season and your Billy Proctor is kind of just, you know, he's in and around that conversation as well.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

Yeah, it could be.

And I think, you know, but I think that comes part and parcel with, you know, I know Leicester's the example of being able to bring a midfielder into the loose forwards, but I think, yeah, I think it's more so what kind of gyp said, I think, you know, if you look at Corey Keller, for example, you know, a guy that's been playing his trades since even I was there, you know, well, that's four years now and probably your Tom Christie does leave and then you're probably thinking it's a great opportunity.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

We probably talked to him at the start of the year, been a great option for the Crusaders, but they've seen a different direction around what Leicester's skill set is and they've brought someone in.

So,

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

Yeah, I think it just opens up conversations to be able to move.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

Possibly, I'm not too sure what Corey wants to do, but players have done that before.

ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

I think, for my example, moving somewhere else to be able to be at the Blues and then get an opportunity to go down to the Crusaders.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

So there's a lot of players that have those kind of similar stories around being at a club and then moving on to somewhere else and whether you're going to prosper or you get another opportunity to play

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

It's a meaningful way to get a different team.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

So I think it'll be no different from whatever the players do choose.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

I know we're using the Crusaders as an example, but there's a lot of stories from other teams that are in some of the positions where they need to give an opportunity somewhere else.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

You would.

Aotearoa Rugby Pod
ABs Selection Heats Up: Halfbacks, Centres & Locks Under the Microscope

Absolutely.

But I think at the same time, you know how it is, Chip, as well.

Like when you've been there for, what is he now, four or five years now?
