I think Kinghorn would be a better fullback than Smith, and would also like to be able to swap between Smith and Russell at 10 if required during a game. In terms of the general 10 question I'd like to see each of them starting at least once (maybe Russell would start twice depending on how many Scotland players there are in the backline since he is familiar with working with them).
Agree on dropping Duhan for Lowe. I suppose now you mention the all nations inclusion it would be classy to include Wales especially after Scotland got the cold shoulder a few tours ago.
This list is also missing Tuipolotu which is a shame - glad it's just a fun article based on stats and not the final list!
Yeah, to leave out Sione feels scandalous. I don't want to break up Huipulotu either. And yeah, I'd probably change tens around too, with the third test deciding what is needed instead. Kinghorn a solid bench option too, but I see him midweek instead. Just too many riches in the backs across the 4 nations!
