Leroy Bert Carter (born 24 February 1999) is a New Zealand professional rugby union player who plays as a half-back for National Provincial Championship club Bay of Plenty and the New Zealand national sevens team.

Every time I have seen him play NPC he has been on the wing.

Think it was 2023 he played a bit for BOP at halfback .

There were 33 squad members named for French.
The addition of Darry seems quite straightforward.
Which means another body required.
If Lakai added, will it be an addition, or to replace, say, Kirifi?
Might still be another required.
They could add Havili, increasing midfielders to 7!
Then add in injury cover, Narawa, Dyer, etc.

I remember him at Halfback off the bench for BoP when they smashed Manawatu in the Championship sem final at the Hangi Pit. If that wasn't his debut it would be one of his first few NPC games. That season was on the back of him being NZ U20 Halfback

There's no need for Havili - they have enough fullbacks and 12s.

Are you sure ? He’s so experienced and he can cover 10 as well

Such a great leader. Look at his co captain exploits for AUNZ

[pakman]

The interesting thing for me is the injury cover, if any, for Jacobson.

Pretty sure Mark Telea gets another stint in the RC. Carter has not been tested at this level and to debut someone new against the Pumas, Boks or Wallabies is a bit of a risk. Preston the next halfback or they may go Christie.

Well I guess that settles it.
Case closed!

I think they will did another third half back rather than Noah Hotham.
