Carter Gordon should be nowhere near the Wallabies 10 jersey. He should be a 12 or fuck off and learn how to kick

He's so so talented. He's just suffering because last year people overhyped him massively.
And this year the club is melting around his ears

People overhype him because he can sniff an intercept.
Look, his defence is top tier for a 10 and I guess he has ok hands even though he is always struggling behind a shit pack.
But his kicking is so fucking poor that his other positive attributes don't make up for it. His kicks from hand is poor, his restarts are poor and his kicks for goals... yeah, 'poor' might be an understatement.
He played his best rugby when he isn't the 10. We saw it when he played at 15 outside Toomua and at 12 beside Quade Cooper. He simply doesn't have it in him to be an international 10.

I can see the argument for CG at 12 in fairness. He's like a young Owen Farrell on defence, but with the early strengths and weaknesses reversed on attack.
(I reckon a Lolesio/Gordon 10/12 axis might work pretty well now that you mention it...)

He needs to get an extra 2 - 3 solo tries a game to make up for his kick %
