From memory his options were limited too and had it gone thru the RS would be his and the GOTY discussion would be roaring.Im all for owning it .. but Im also all for knowing your capabilities.
A regular annoyance of mine is the long shot taker that just misses by 5 metres, drops short and is touched thru. We atm are winning , as much thru a conversion accuracy , as anything else ..and that I really respect. So no problem young JC .. but take the shot but take the result onboard of whats really a reasonable percentage shot .
I think Duncan is a reasonable comparison. he can hit them 55-60 on the run like in that GF. I think our cocky young frypan tried from about 75 ... I can hear Clint Eastwood whispering sweet nothings if he was his coach..
Id much rather him do that than say Smedts continue to try and shimmy his way past a tackler like he used to do - on the basis i dont recall JC having too many other options to back in. Smedts as having been referenced often took the tackler on when other options were available as he backed his skill to win out. IMO JC did the same on the back of not having too much else to do - happy to be corrected there.
