[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 455225, member: 24910"] Personally I'd like to see Weepu starting at 9 (and be the goal-kicker), but I don't think the selectors will go this way. I don't think they will be keen to rush Cruden into the 22, so Weepu will likely be the backup 10, and (rightly or wrongly) the AB's selectors don't believe their halfbacks are capable of playing more than 60 mins. Therefore Weepu won't be used to cover 10 (with the possibility of having to ply 80 mins) if he is the starting 9. Israel Dagg is a capable goal-kicker - if he wasn't suffering from persistent leg injuries, and had actually been goal-kicking at provincial level over the last year he would have been a good option!
