U20 : l'Irlande a très vite plié le match contre l'Italie

And?

I think he has a) the pop pass for a 12(skill took Jordie a while), b) they same hard and straight running, c) the defence, and d) the desire (he will actually get more physically stronger again for the position). Barrett is a great versatile player that does so much for the team especially at the back (and that could be his place if Jordan doesn't make it his own) but I just think he's the one not to reach taht next step in developement. For me, he is the perfect bench player as he is now, he could cover every backline position save 9 (and Dmac, Reece if playing, could even do it if you want to be able to go that crazy) and would offer superb flexibility till WR fix the bench laws.

Love the way you defend too bro, how you really go for the tackle. Team needs more of it.

Barretts graft added to the loosies allows you to play Ardie at seven. Dalton might be a better choice against physical sides with Ardie finishing? Dont' mind EB covering 7 though.

Or are you just another noise box that isn’t prepared to front the question…

Otherwise you hope theres more insight than just playing these guys while in form, like Beauden Barrett, until theyre not in form again.

Wouldn't a British and Irish league make for compelling viewing in a Lions year. Obviously thought it should have been thing from the beginning but how good would all that be! True player movement would be so cool for teams angle to hire the right person for their coach/style/gaps. Of course your Welsh teams still wouldn't cut it if they can't avg more than 10k crowds but it would be able to have a second division they could all play in and still earn Lions selection?!?!

The insistence of having wing cover on the bench makes no sense when we have Clarke, Jordan, and Reiko, and JB and BB would both be perfectly capable of covering too if needed.

I don't think the current game plan really gives either him or JB much time or space to do anything other than run straight into contact and try to get quick ball for the next phase. We created so many chances and so much space against SA it is a plan that is almost working. The "almost" is mainly due to decision making by the halves and lack of composure when the try line is beckoning rather than anything JB or Reiko are doing. On the list of problems for the ABs Reiko is probably about number 50 on the list.
