The outhalf implements the attacking framework which was given to him/her.
It’s like saying “the 9 who came on should start because they sped it up”.
That’s because that’s their role.
The outhalf can have a good game even if the attack is poor.

Ah sure they are easily distracted. We just have to mention the possibility of a non-Leinster player as Irish outhalf, or a football team from any other county, or tell them to shut up whinging about public transport when they have Luass, Dort, and busses. That'll set them off.

The comments under this suggest our South African friends are embracing the outhalf culture wars. Imitation being the greatest form of flattery I guess 🤷♂️
Sacha Feinberg-Mgomezulu's drop off from 2025 to 2026 has been crazy. He was one of the best players in the world last year, and maybe the worst player on the field today for a second game in a row.
