[QUOTE="Thingimubob, post: 545970, member: 20956"] Talking about Halfpenny, anyone else noticed he's starting to step into Shane's old role as '2nd playmaker'? Obviously we saw him playing 10 for 10 mins against England when Preistland was in the bin, but I've noticed he's starting filling in at 1st receiver quite a lot recently For example, in the Toulon v Blues game last weekend, if Patchell took the ball in, or got caught up in contact, Halfpenny would usually be the one to run up and get it out wide if the backs wanted it. I wonder if this will continue with Wales, especially since it's unlikely we'll have a playmaker in the centres (they wont put Hook and Biggar on the same pitch unless they're forced to I think), with Roberts - Davies or Roberts/Davies and North being the likely centre partnerships [/QUOTE]
