Humphreys left chasing Kyle’s record

DAVID HUMPHREYS will not break Jackie Kyle’s Irish record of 46 appearances at stand off when he lines out at No 10 against Fiji at Lansdowne Road on Sunday.
Humphreys left chasing Kyle’s record

One of Humphreys’ appearances for Ireland as a substitute for Ciaran Clarke at Twickenham in 1998 was at full back and Irish statisticians were busy investigating the possibility that he might also have won another of his caps in a different position.

In any event, some 17 of Humphreys’ appearances were made as a reserve and these are documented in all rugby record books, including the official IRFU programmes.
