Yeah I think it was more a case of Bowe taking his game to another level in 07/08 season and taking the 14 jersey .

Still not in terrible form but not at his peak at that stage.Uncle fester wrote: Thu Jan 09, 2025 7:19 pmHickie.

Hickie or Horgan would have loved to play with Ireland at the top. Watched a Horgan highlight video recently and you forget just how good he was at his peak.
When did Horgan start to go off the boil?
I'd take either of them now.

He was a bit up and down. Don't think it was injury related until the very end, probably more than he lost his hunger a bit.
Was still able to turn it on from time to time, not unlike Murray in the tail end of his career.
