Yeah, I think so, especially with Jack's injury at the moment.

It's actually before the Six Nations.

I actually thought Harry Byrne was probably the standard choice.

I thought he was doing very well for Leinster.

But in fairness, Sam got the nod.

And then we all know that Jack came on against Italy, changed it and took the number one jersey from there.

But yeah, I think Sam probably...

probably does deserve it, especially with Kieran there, probably not playing that much at 10.

Harry seems to be a little bit of the understudy to Sam.

So I think Sam does get the nod for the summer tour.

But once again, I know this is a 10, like,

Playing well as a ten, it all depends on how the players are going around you.

If you're getting good front foot ball, if it's quick ball, if you're getting the comms from the outside in and you're making right decisions, it just leads on from there.

There is the individual aspects of place kicking, kicking out of hand, which is, that's more individual.

But for a ten to play well, it really does depend on the pack going forward, making good decisions at the line and playing into the right space at the right time.

For me, I got my confidence through clarity and then obviously you get your confidence through performance.

It's funny, like as a 10 or like,

Most players who lose their confidence will just go, okay, I'm just gonna be physical here and get stuck in.

Like a lot of forwards, like to get their confidence back, they get a few carries, they get a few tackles.

It's a little bit different when you're a 10.
