Is scrum half now our strongest position? The depth we have there is growing all the time, with the potential huge. Off the top of my head:
Tomos Williams - I seriously rate this lad. By the next WC imo he'll potentially be viewed as the best in the world.
Gareth Davies - probably the most explosive scrum half out there. Try scorer extrodonare and great in defense as well. Kobus Reinach (who's underused by SA imo) is probably his only equal ball in hand.
Rhys Webb - the returning no.1. Another try scoring machine. 5m out, the guys lethal.
Kieron Hardy - getting better all the time. Another who can't stop scoring. He could be the next cab off the rank.
Rhodri Williams - great little general who could offer something a little different to the 4 x-factor players above. He's none too shabby ball in hand himself, but is possibly a little more rounded with a better kicking and marshalling game.
Aled Davies - could find himself way down the pecking order after featuring heavily under Gats. Another who offers more of a kicking/marshalling game. Playing at the struggling Ospreys is doing him no favours, but the competiton also offer more imo.
Lloyd Williams - not a bad 7th choice option! Experienced and solid with a good all court game.
Tavis Knoyle - has had to contend with plenty of injury issues over recent years, but he's a handy player when fit. A physical Mike Phillips esqe player, with a good boot. Feels like a long time ago when he was playing for Wales and looking the part though.
There's also a few youngsters who are being talked up, but they need opportunities at regional level first.
So that's 8 international quality options imo. Not bad at all!
