[QUOTE="Peat, post: 737652, member: 42330"] I very much did misinterpret you on that score. Jackson's goalkicking weakness is overstated. He was on a 75pc success rate in his last 5 Irish internationals - not ideal, but not abysmal. His kicking percentage for Ulster is 82pc (according to stat bunker), which is fine. What prolonged period are we talking about here? Last season, when he was playing the rugby of his life either side of that dislocated elbow? His last Ireland performances, when he generally made an impact off the bench? And NZ 2011 had Weepu who could fly-half in the squad. Matt Giteau was in the 2003 squad. And I'd love to hear what actual international fly-halfs Ireland ignored in 2007 and 1999, because if Paddy Wallace was going as a 10 in 2007 and there was an international fly-half knocking around, someone was being cheated! So... basically, yeah, disagreeing with you on pretty much everything. [/QUOTE]
