Given that he has this 6N and the RWC to go through before he has to choose whether to go back to Wales or not, I'd like to think he will have a pretty good idea as to where he stands in regards to selection. It's tough competition in the back row for the Welsh (and has been for years) but I think he's a very competent player. So we will see I suppose.

6,6.5,7...the number is immaterial.

If the question is who can pickup the jackling task if Youngs were to move, then the answer is Willis. He's exceptional at it.

The fact he has other skills is a bonus.

I agree with you there, he's great over the ball. I'm looking forward to seeing him and Young together again. I think one of my favourite backrow we've fielded in recent years was those two and Guy Thompson, quick, powerful and winning turnover after turnover
