Interesting debate on Fox League about how very few players can play 6 and 7. NZ Warrior scrum half wants to leave because he is currently playing 6 and wants to play 7. I think in the UK the roles are pretty interchangeable these days but different Aus.
intrigued to understand how a stand off can’t play scrum half.

Tis an interesting debate. I guess the concept has always been the 6 is more of a runner and the 7 is more of an organiser and play-maker.
I couldn't see Harry Smith playing 6 but I could see Mikey Lewis playing 7. If you know what I mean.
I guess like a few positions, lines are blurred (centre and 2nd row for one).
The Aussies also seem to have a few frustrated 6s at full-back occasionally as well.
