I don't want this to sound cliché, but when growing up, I idolised two scrum halves; Will Genia and Danny Care. I liked to base the speed of my game off Danny's sniping, darting runs whilst trying to replicate the control, pragmatism and accuracy of Will Genia (not to say Danny wasn't). I absolutely loved watching both in their primes, for very different reasons too. Both world class, in my eyes!
Surely we need to focus a bit more on SH specific skills when considering each category - e,g, sniping (attack), speed of service (passing) etc. And definitely needs an extra 7th category that is vital to the position -"winding up the oppo"! Surely that would get DC well into the 90s by itself 😂
I love you Danny but strength 83?! And you can't just do it based on a scrum half comparison, that's not how it works. And what would Mike Phillips or Joost Van Der Westhuizen be?! Or even Faff de Klerk? But the video has done its job and got me commenting, so well done!
Go steady Alex. These scores have been voted by fans- Danny hasn’t plucked it out of the air …additionally, DC weighs 90kg and benches 120kg, 125% of his body weight that’s not terrible old bean.
@DannyCareYT Like a mighty ant! Does seem like scrum halves, to their credit, are compact and strong pound for pound. Dupont, Stringer, Gareth Davies...you can only be as strong as the body allows so I see where you're/the fans are coming from. Much love from a blustery London

Legend of the game. Well done DC

Im not a troll, but these are absurdly high scores.
If McCaw is a 95-ish on defence then Care is a 55 to 65
