[QUOTE="Fushitsusha, post: 140277"] Indeed. This is why I prefer Berrick Barnes. Despite being surrounded by a woeful team he's looked the goods in the Super 14. He may have come around too late, but I'm glad Connolly selected him for the World Cup. Although he should've been blooded in the earlier tests against Wales and Fiji. All the hype on Beale has shadowed the talents of Christian Lealiifano who I think is every bit as good as Beale. In fact, they both have a very similar style. Anyways, hopefully the confidence these guys get in the ARC can help them with the transition up to Super 14. Norton-Knight has lost his spark and will only make for an average playmaker for the Tahs. In regards to the Brumbies - Huxley will do OK with all the talent surrounding him, but he's never really looked that good at flyhalf and definately is a far superior player at fullback or inside centre. The timing of some of his passes in the Super 14 got a little cringeworthy. Personally, I'd also like to see Fairbanks relegated to the bench for someone better. Hopefully Anthony Faingaa can make something for himself in the ARC. [/QUOTE]
