Who will be the ABs third choice at 9 for the RWC ?
-
Gotta be TTT, but I reckon we could do with Bryn Hall's services. And bloody hell that kid Fakatava is a an explosive package reckon he will wear black next year.
-
@Jailbreak7 Fakatava is eligible from approx. end of 2020.

Not convinced on Hall yet, when he is good he is good but can be the other extreme also
He’s been one of our most consistent players over recent times and surpassed Drummond (who was on the AB radar) as the first choice Crusader halfback.

since when has being a bench player been a roadblock to test match rugby?
TTT, Frizzell, Hemopo, Perry you could class in the regular non-starter category before being named ABs
-
@ACT-Crusader He's been much less reliable for Harbour.
-
I suspect there is a plan with TTT to be honing him for the 'close out' role once occupied so well by TKB.
Chiefs are happy at the moment to use him that way as although Weber's passing can go ropey at times his main attribute of speed to the breakdown and quick clearance is what the Chiefs want at the moment especially with a journeyman 10 -
Title is slightly exaggerating ...
Chiefs coach Colin Cooper backs Brad Weber's All Blacks return
-
Nothing would give me more anxiety than Weber being on the pitch in a big test.
-
-
when TKB was on the scene we had a good mix...Smith for the fast game, TKB for his workrate and defence and then TJP kinda in the middle of both, but at the time not good enough to really usurp both...

Who would you rather then? Weber is arguably the third best halfback in Super atm, possibly Bryn Hall. I'd rather Weber over TTT at the moment.
I don't believe that. Weber's passing is abysmal. A fundamental skill for halfbacks and he's shit at it.
