What annoys me is we dont really have a winger that will just back themselves for pace. The Wallabies dont have a winger who believes he's the fastest player on the field and goes for gold.
Rod Davies. Not that I'd pick him for the Wallabies, but he is the winger that is the fastest player on the field.
His defence has also really improved this season.
Yep, thanks for reminding me. He does back himself (eg against Crusaders) but I wonder whether this is trained out of them or they just lose that belief at the Test level. See, Lachlan Turner used to back himself for pace, but I havent seen him really put his head down to get to the line for a while for the Tah's, let alone the Wallabies.
If your a speedster winger and you dont use your speed, what are you doing, really?
Turner uses his speed, but he is marked well these days. Davies will find it more difficult as the videos of him spread as well.
