Scott FerraraHOST
I would argue if you took...
Scott FerraraHOST
Ruben De Haas.
Scott FerraraHOST
Let's just use a man as an example.
Scott FerraraHOST
Is it more prudent to take the starting scrum half of anybody? It doesn't have to be a man.
Alastair Kirsch-PooleHOST
I mean, we were talking before the show about scrum halves for the Eagles, and it's something where right now there's sort of two and a half options at scrum half for the Eagles.
Alastair Kirsch-PooleHOST
There's Ruben De Haas, there's...
Alastair Kirsch-PooleHOST
What's his name?
John FitzpatrickHOST
Michael Basker.
Bill BakerHOST
Fitzy, who are the backs?
John FitzpatrickHOST
Yeah, in the backs, of course, nine, uh, Ruben de Haas, mainstay there.
John FitzpatrickHOST
Uh, we'll see the return of Chris Helson back at 10, coming off a great season again with Chicago Hounds.
John FitzpatrickHOST
A lot of Hounds in this, including Noah Brown, who is starting for USA, uh, who's gonna get his first start in the backs.
John FitzpatrickHOST
He's served as a captain before, so to bring that veteran leadership off the bench is, uh, is fantastic.
John FitzpatrickHOST
I'll go through the reserve backs real quick here, Bill, as you mentioned, just three.
John FitzpatrickHOST
So Michael Basga, he'll come on, um, at, at scrum half and, and, and spell Ruben de Haas when need be.
John FitzpatrickHOST
Luke Hardy there can cover a few positions, but probably would come on for, um, Chris Helson back if need be.
Rob HammerschmidtHOST
And so, you know, that'll be an interesting one in the backs.
Rob HammerschmidtHOST
I think, you know, going back to the South African piece here, as we go back, I think I see a picture back there of, of Ruben de Haas.
Rob HammerschmidtHOST
Is that, is that a picture? Correct? Yeah.
Rob HammerschmidtHOST
Yeah.
