fly-halves

Fly-halves is the plural of fly-half, a position in rugby union and rugby league.

The fly-half, also called the outside half or stand-off, typically receives the ball from the scrum-half and directs attacking play, making decisions about whether to pass, kick, or run.

This position demands both tactical intelligence and ball-handling skills, as the fly-half often serves as the team's primary playmaker and kicker.

The fly-halves on both teams had outstanding matches.
