Wallabies 2025

Whether you want your First five making all those tackles is more the question

Sure, but we know he can. We also know he’s got a big boot and I believe he beat Lolesio for goal kicking percentage as well.

Without critiquing anything else, there's an issue straight away with playing Paisami in that backline in the current system. The idea of hanging back is to present a wall to the attacker, which requires the whole defensive line to be connected. The second Paisami rushes up for a big hit, the system will fall apart.

Second, why you would want to bench one of the best attacking backs we have in Wright and put Sua'ali'i at fullback, particularly when he's been training at outside centre since he got into Wallabies camp and has formed a combo with Ikitau, is beyond me. If we're worried about his positioning and reading at 13, how is putting him at 15 going to solve that problem?

I think I'll pass on that article thanks.

Sua'ali'i looked out of his comfort zone at OC against the Fijians, & he's a better all round fullback than Wright.
