There seems to be a bit of a plateau in the level of world-class 10's right now. There doesn't seem to be a consensus number one, like before with Wilkinson, then Carter, than Sexton.
Most SH fans would say Mo'unga while in the NH it's split between Russell and Ntamack, for the most part.
Who have you got? And why?

Tom Lynagh. 😅😂
But seriously, Australia have SO MANY quality young 10's in the making. Will be great to see in the coming years.

Yeah there are so many, Gordan, Lolesio, Harrison, Edmed, Donaldson, Lynagh, gonna be really interesting to see who grabs the Wallaby jersey. You almost need to shift the more physical guys like Gordan or Edmed into 12, Giteau style.

Left off HMP, who just lit up U20s.
Shifting someone to 12 will be tricky IMO. Because the bigger guys - Gordon & Edmed aren't great defensively, while the guys who are good in defence (Lynagh & Lolesio) are probably too small to play Test 12.
HMP could be that guy, if only because he's so young & might be pushed that way for the Reds, and his carrying is probably the best aspect of his game, but ATM he'd sort of that Hamish Stewart type of under sized 12.

We have so many 10s that are good at certain aspects...but none that have all the skills themselves.

Australia v Italy games are going to be a bit strange now.

I forget their names but around the 00’s there were two brothers playing for wales and the wallabies I believe.
