    Hi,

    Looking for some more goal kickers that aren't Out Halves (besides Chris Patterson, already have him). Nice easy way to rack up those points in the coming weeks. Does anyone know any?

    Thanks,
    D

    Italy's fullback Bortolussi has an amazing boot- kicks alot of nice dropkicks.

    Argentina's Juan Martín Hernández, one of the worlds most talented players. Plays at Centre for Stade Francais but the Pumas play him at full-back.

    France's Elissalde is a great fly-half turned scrum half with a good boot. And of course Yachvilli, however I dont think he's in Frances main squad at present. France have alot of talented kickers, and its likely only Skrela and Beauxis will play at FH. Skrela is often seen playing Centre.

    SA's Percy Montgomery is probably your best bet however, as far as I know he does the majority of their kicking from FB.

    Also have a look at Wales- considering Hook, Henson and Jones all play centre.

    Stirling Mortlock, Percy Montgomery, Dmitri Yachvili, Jean-Baptiste Ellisalde off the top of my head.

    Paterson is at out-half for the tournament though, isnt he?

    Contepomi will be kicking for argentina from inside center so that is one, in any case it looks like Hernandez is first choice out half for the argies so probably steer clear of him (also he is their third choice kicker). Mortlock and Percy Montgommery are the other two great prospects. The French scrum halves are unlikely to be kicking any goals unless Skrela gets injured.

    Skrela will be kicking for France - he was given responsibility during the 6 nations.

    Already have Patterson and Montgomery.

    Patterson is listed in the game as a full back, which is his natural position.

    Felipe Contemponi is listed as an out-half, even though he will play as a first centre. Don't know if he will be kicking, but there are better place kickers available at out half anyway

    Hook is listed as an out half as well, although he might play at inside centre I'm only allowed pick one OH.

    Going to pick Mortlock and Giteau as backs as well. Both seem to have been popping up scoring penalties and conversions for the Wallabys this year. Left and Right footed, maybe.
