MacLeod-Henderson says the scrumhalf has an excellent boot and a great pass. He also says Wright is a strong, physical player with a big future in the game.

Etienne Oosthuizen is at flank this week.

MacLeod-Henderson believes it is a position that will suit Oosthuizen.

MacLeod-Henderson says Oosthuizen is strong with ball in hand, attacks the breakdown and has a good work-rate.
