I would say he was partly to blame for three tries on Sunday, he also conceded a penalty with his rush defence and also was partly to blame for one or two more half breaks.

Maybe this is Bluey's fault for getting him to target Orford too much but it's not the first time I've noticed him miss tackles or have bad positioning. At the start of last season he was missing tackles quite often. The match against Melbourne springs to mind. I know he wasn't helped by donald and watkins coming in-field.

90% of the team showed defensive weak spots against manly.
Many others gave away cheap penalties.
So what's your point?????

Why?

His technique leaves a lot to be desired at times, he bounces off a lot of tackles by leading with the arms.

He got stood up by Watmough and his poor positional sense mean't he missed tackles that were probably his responsibility. He also put a weak tackle in that enabled the player to offload.

I thought McLaren said it was the end to these threads?

I would think providing it is constructive that it will be aloud.

Pont being missed is that after losing burrow both mcguire and Sinfield changed position, tghis always causes defensive problems as when tied or as Sunday you are under the cosh by a very good team you do not need to be concouisly thinking of where you need to be in the defensive line, If we still had Jordan Tansey on the bench he could have gone to scrumhalf and this might have made a bit of a differance, Probably still lost but less of the more glaring mistakes.

If you want to go thru the negative process of pointing fingers at individual players for their mistakes there would be alot more than Kev being singled out and with a greater portion of the blame. Like all the other players he ran his blood to water for the TEAM.

Players do not make errors or lose games of that magnitude deliberately.

He wasn't helped by the walking turnstile that was Lauitiiti on his outside in the first half...
