If you had to wager your life on a kick, who would you want stroking it over? International kicking savant Morne Steyn, or Waratah wetback, Brendan McKibbin?
Well, by the stats this year it’s gotta be the kilted Tah, which may well be a good reason why Pretorius BIG is riding the pine.
Other notables? How about Mikey Mike Harris, who’s dropped 25 points this season? “My sides, they’re splitting” James O’Connor by contrast isn’t doing so shabbily on 84%.
Some notable big names without the runs on the board – what will this mean come Test time?
