Re: Force v Brumbies - right now

Will Harris sums up the Waratahs pathways

Scots College - check
6’4 - check
Good looking - check
Interested in rugby - check

Locked in pathway candidate - right up until he makes it to senior rugby. Currently being invisible in a modest Force pack

Uru is in much better form than Holloway, so should be selected.
Holloway will get picked (if he does) based on his lineout, not his impact

Rodda is completely unconvincing

Busy, but ineffective. He needs to do more if he’s going to get that 5 jumper for the WBs
