[QUOTE="erwanseb, post: 303545"] O'Gara is the main reason why the current Irish team is the grand slam holder but he is also the main reson why this current Irish team cannot get past the rwc quarter final. He's a wonderful orchestrator of the game but his flaws become too apparent whenever playing againt the top southern team, or in this case a French team at the level of a top southern team. The big question is whether the current Irish team wants to remain in the comfort zone, taking no risk and ensuring a top two finish in the 6N by playing O'Gara, or if they want to breed a flyhalf who can take them further. Whether Saxton can take the Irish team to another level remains to be seen, but you won't know until you give it a try, giving a try means a continous selection over a full year and not just the odd game here and there.
