Like if one of those is that, then that's sweet.

You've done your job.

But if you're coming in and you're just sort of hovering around the breakdown and the job's been done, then it's an attacking player missing that could draw the defence.

And in comparison, if you look at Fraser McWright, who's an international seven, he hit 45 rucks, which is ridiculous.

He's a busy man.

And only two of them were plus seven.

And you'd have to think with the manner of his skill set and the way he played against the Blues, you'd think those two were probably needers.

I think it's just unfair to even judge him on it.

It's such a thing you learn over time.

And as we sort of said about Takane Juri in the interview and speaking about the hybrid player,

is you almost need to learn this away from the bright lights.

Like, man, everyone's eyes was on this game.

Everyone was looking at how Leicester... And from a just visual point of view, watching the game, everyone's left going, man, he's a seven.

But...

If you look at Fraser McWright's numbers, he's a proven international seven.

There's still parts of that role that need to grow, but could he do it in a hybrid role, late in the game, tiring defences off the bench?

Yeah, I think he could at an international level.

I think starting at seven, international level, I think would be unfair to him.

Just one more example, just to labour the point around, I think he can still do this role at midfield or wing, is even the pick and go try.

So you look at every winger, Caleb Clarke, Mark Talia, Leroy Carter, they're all already hovering around in that breakdown.
