Highlanders first five Tony Brown has entered the debate on who should be Daniel Carter's back up at the Rugby World Cup.

Some are picking the 36-year-old as the number one contender to make a comeback, 10 years after his last game in the black jersey.

However Brown says two of the men he'll come up against tomorrow are in the box seat.

He says Luke McAlister and Stephen Brett would have to be the front runners at the moment.

Brown says at the moment he's a bit off the pace.
