[QUOTE="snoopy snoopy dog dog, post: 554419, member: 13611"] This is where your point fall down in my opinion. Humphreys didn't miss many tackles for the simple reason that he went missing in defence and would regularly hide on the wing. He was a liability when the opposition had the ball. Humphreys also hated being tackled and would often ship the ball on to a team mate to avoid contact. I'm a Humphreys fan and think he was a fantastic talent who developed an outstanding kicking game to go with a strong running and passing game. What I dislked was his temperment which saw him fall to pieces too often. O'Gara's stronger will and refusal to let incidents on the pitch affect him won him the job post 2003 and rightly so. He made the most of his talent while Humphreys could have do so much more. [/QUOTE]
