O'Gara has some good traits, most notably his long kicking, but other than that I've seen little to suggest he is anywhere near as good as Carter in terms of tackling, pace, passing etc.
Agreed!
To we considered to be a world class fly half you have to be good in all areas not just one or two. Carter is the best fly half in the world for that reason.

Why don't you like Carter, Perm?

Is it coz he models boxers?

He plays for Canterbury and I just get sick of how some of the commentators seem to orgasm over him every time he scores a try or something similar, I mean he is a good player but already they label him as the greatest rugby player ever which is ridiculous.

Ooooh understandable I guess. I think he's a great player. I guess sometimes the hype over him goes too far.

Spencer never had the all-round game that Carter has, neither did he have the mental capabilities.

true, but spencer was being called the best five-eigth at the time. now that i think about it, his demise occured when nz switched to the flat attack style...

He was the best at the time - someone else has come along, as they always do

Spencer was a mixed bag, really. He was better than Tony Brown, though.
