[QUOTE="Bluemoon, post: 1112579, member: 38204"] I think Biggar was about to be overtaken by Anscombe until his injury. I think the fall of Sheedy has also been a massive worry. I’d agree the Biggar is still the man to start just like Sexton has held his spot for so long with Ireland. He’s got the experience of winning that this teams needs. As I watch Jarrod a lot, I’d say this. In open play he’s world class and can unlock defences, pick the right runners or spot a gap. He’s easy to watch in full flow. It also helps him and Tomas Williams have the years of playing together. The down side is he’s more of a confidence player than Priestland and he can really struggle when a pack is under the kosh. I was hoping that he’d be able to learn a bit of game management from Priestland at Cardiff when he arrived, but it’s not seemed that way so far. I’m with you, I’d love to see him take the step up but I am not sure he’s ready just yet, especially in a 6N where in Wales the pressure is extremely high. [/QUOTE]
