[QUOTE="dullonien, post: 840509, member: 13739"] He earn't and cemented his place in the Wales team based on his attacking ability and all round game, nothing to do with his place kicking (other than long shots at goal). He wasn't the front-line place kicker for either the Blues or Wales until 2012. Not saying that he deserves his spot at fullback ahead of Liam Williams, or a wing spot ahead of Keelan Giles or Steff Evans, but he's a better attacking player than he's allowed to be in this current Welsh team, as is North. If I had to chose, I'd say that starting both Giles and Steff Evans in the same back three would be too much of a gamble, and I'd retain either Halfpenny or North on one wing alongside Giles/Evans and Liam Williams.
