[QUOTE="Bada-Bing!, post: 912727, member: 70552"] Yeah I don’t see Beauden ever going back to full back. McKenzie has taken over his role in the 22 jersey (from pre RWC 15) of coming off the bench to play full back or if Beauden is injured play 10. Jordie is clearly Smith’s long term successor at full back, but until he retires I don’t see the point of shunting the world’s best full back onto the wing. I seem to recall Sopoaga getting a start v SA pre RWC 2015 in SA, so not impossible Richie gets a start in one of the matches to see how he handles a test match. But for sure Beauden will start at 10 for the majority of the RC matches. [/QUOTE]
