[QUOTE="Cruz_del_Sur, post: 997099, member: 55747"] Saving the distance from amateur to top tier pro, i couldn't help thinking of Felipe Contepomi when you described yourself. He was a very opportunistic player thou. Fast (not feet, head). I used to think that way, now I'm not so sure. I've heard TONS of players/sport psychologist say they/players improved a lot once they stopped working (so hard) on their weaknesses and started putting more emphasis on getting what you are good at to an excellent level. Think about it this way. Ogara was ,say, a 9 at kicking and a 3 at defense. Had he been a seven at both he would arguably be a better player but you would have never, ever heard of him. Rugby is becoming more and more a specialists' sport. not as much as nfl, clearly [/QUOTE]
