[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 526982, member: 24910"] So you are conceding that very few teams have creative options at 12 now? There is no doubt that McCabe's distribution skills need to improve, but I think he has definitely shown improvement in that area this season already. There is nothing wrong with McCabe kicking skills (he used to be a fullback after all) - the fact he doesn't do much kicking at 12 is due to the fact these days 12's don't need to be doing much kicking! (hence the reason most teams don't opt for a second kicking option at 12...). I'm not in any way suggesting he is the perfect 12, just that he is the best option Australia has at the moment, and he has the skills to develop into a very good 12 at test level. [/QUOTE]
