Certainly at this stage, all he has to do is just play the appropriate football during the Super 14 and I'll certainly back him to have a very good (competition).
Having had a couple of weeks at home now, we've tried to play with some good tempo (in our play), to really put some good pace on the game. You've got to back your skills, and I think it has always been a Brumbies trait to play at a good tempo.
I think everybody will be primed for a good performance. And I guess I'd rather have experienced players who've been there and done that than a whole host of players who haven't. I'd rather be in our shoes than their shoes.
It certainly wasn't our greatest game. But it was a very good test of our character.
We scored four tries and we haven't scored four tries this year, so there's a lot of good things to come out of it. I thought we showed tremendous character out there.
It's great to go to the week off having a good win against a New Zealand side.
He's in such good form and he's playing with plenty of quality and enthusiasm. He's really rejuvenated his career this season.
