I think his reputation was back to front.

He was a far worse ball-winning battler than he was given credit for, but by the same token, he was better technically on the ball than anyone credited him for.

Still dogshit though.

I think that is spot on son.....i don't think he could ever tackle, he was "enthusiastic* in the tackle but i don't think he was actually ever that good at it but he never got the credit for being a decent footballer.

I think his best attribute was his leadership, i have lost count of the amount of times when players like Savage, Dennis Wise, Keane, Speedie, Mcmahon, Vinnie etc etc have stood in the middle of the field against us and practically refd the game and Savage was good at that.
