What I saw of the game, missed tackles does not do justice to our lack of effort in defence. If a player doesn't reach out to tackle, or doesn't chase, where does it show up in the stats? Without Reddy there to get repeatedly stood up, there is no excuse. It looked like a bad game from the 80's, with semi-professionals hoping someone else would tackle for them.
Over and over again, I saw one player trying to tackle and the rest watching. Blair was a big offender, "chucking a Lui" and staying out of position so he wouldn't be expected to tackle. But guess what, I do expect him and the rest to do exactly that. With few exceptions, the effort was terrible. The writing was on the wall two weeks ago, now it's a disaster and the players are acting like we can't make the 8\. A new coach and few stints in NSW Cup for repeat offenders is well overdue. /rant
