For a team that concedes so many tries we sure have a couple of guys who never miss tackles.

That's because we have guys who do miss alot of tackles.
 
Twal is very underrated by the Fans

He is our Dale finucane.

I cant wait for him to bag his first Try!
 
You can tell when he gets close to the try line he is busting to put it over the line, poor bugger, lol. Thomas Mikaele hasn't also scored one
 
And then there’s Stefano whose played a quarter the amount of games as Twal, and half the amount as Mikaele, and he has 5.

To be honest

Stefano is built like a absolute tank

Once he gets that leg drive going....mmmm

I see so many writing this bloke off. I would love to see him develop an offload into his game but he's a great addition to the team. Rolls up his sleeve & does the hard yards. That tackle efficiency is incredible at that level too. Hopefully he's a long term prospect for the club. Rate him highly.

Mikaele should've scored by now, he's more of a tackle buster and has a bit more leg speed there's no reason he can't score. Whenever he gets near the line he tends to run sideways though

By memory he came really close during a bulldogs game i think?

He had the tryline wide open and it was a try saving tackle by a player to deny him

He tends to run sideways at each of the 10 metre lines marked on the field. It's the biggest flaw in his game.
 
He went through a period a year or two ago where everyone wanted his head, but that seems to have passed. He’s an honest player, with the best tackle efficiency in the comp.

He's only 23 with 58 games. give him at least another season.
