Gregor Paul reflects on the shift of attention away from star fly-halves in The New Zealand Herald.

"It's true - the arrival of Stephen Donald in the All Black camp hardly inspires confidence. It's a worry, not so much because of his wobbly history as a test five eighth, but because he's the fourth choice.

"No coach ever wants to be dipping that far into the stocks come a World Cup semi-final. But the despair and angst can be kept to a minimum. It has become apparent that this is not a World Cup about No 10s."
