 ARGENTINE FLY HALF DEPTH |
Domingo Miotti is positioned as a Puma in waiting. The 29-year-old has been consistent for Montpellier in what is his second season playing for the club.
The five time capped Miotti has not yet played for Los Pumas under Felipe Contepomi. Contepomi has not shied away from given players opportunities. In 2025 he has had four different players starting test matches at fly half: Tomás Albornoz, Santiago Carreras, Nicolás Roger and Gerónimo Prisciantelli. Roger and Prisciantelli both debuted for Argentina in 2025.
Juan Cruz Mallía has also been in consideration for game-time at fly half for Argentina. He had several starts for Toulouse in the position last season. He is not playing this season due to an injury sustained as a result of a late-tackle by England’s Tom Curry in November.
Contepomi recently held a training camp in London. It was limited to European-based players and Miotti was not included. The fly halves in the camp were Tomás Albornoz, Santiago Carreras, Geronimo Prisciantelli and Nicolás Roger.
