Wests Tigers v Manly *LIVE SPOILERS

[69-05-41]

Pauga 9 missed tackles, Talau 5 missed tackles

 

[Tim Sheens]

Terrible miss by Talau and then Brooks

First one should be having a HIA and the second was Pauga and a miss by cover.

 

[avocadoontoast]

Hate to have a reliable edge defender like Finucane!!

He plays in the middle

 

[Demps]

AD = best

 

[Snake]

Talau is just not a reliable first grader

A Madge favourite, makes these errors every single week

?? it’s the coaches job on the line !

 

[Tiger_heart]

Pauga+Talau = the masters of disasters

 

[YesHeCheeKam]

The two forward injuries have killed us. In saying that, we had 4 sets on their line and didnt look like scoring.

Paugau is not up to it defensively, but anyone without rose coloured glasses knew that last week.

 

[BAGNF05]

Hate to have a reliable edge defender like Finucane!!

He plays in the middle

Plays wherever he’s put

 

[JD Tiger]

Hey isnt the crowds meant to be wearing masks? Whats the rules up there in Qld?

Don't have to wear them outside.
Many choose to anyway.

Fair enough. It's certainly taken some getting used to, this mask wearing.

Anyway, go Wests Tigers!!

Hate to have a reliable edge defender like Finucane!!

He is a middle mate, he would get murdered on an edge

 

[Speed2burn]

Pauga 9 missed tackles, Talau 5 missed tackles

Pauga has some of the worst first up contact I’ve ever seen. Shirt grabs deluxe

 

[yeahcaz]

Can’t believe we’re actually in this.

 

[earl]

Talau is just not a reliable first grader

A Madge favourite, makes these errors every single week

I don't think this is true. He has been dropped multiple times and has had JTJ and BJ ahead of him all season.

 

[voice_of_reason]

Lack of desperation in defence is what is costing us - our edge defence has been a problem all year but we've just got to work harder and push across on the inside.

I actually think we're numbering up better this game but our lack of line speed (we're defending on our heels) and simple missed tackles have cost us dearly. You're certainly right on desperation - we have none.

 

[TigerNeddyK]

Why are they making Harper look like Turbo? They keep holding off. Surely Madge isn't telling them to do that.

He doesn’t seem to be capable of ever changing it. They defend the same back and sideways crap style week in week out and he keeps picking the same guys. Also he talks about accountability but he never applies it … they are bit improving, Brooks hit form a couple of weeks ago but seems to have regressed again , that miss on Harper was disgraceful!

 

[kratos]

I don't think the issue is talau and LL. It's having them both on the same side. I rather LL come off the bench...not 80min for me

 

[BAGNF05]

Hate to have a reliable edge defender like Finucane!!

He is a middle mate, he would get murdered on an edge

Has played plenty of edge also. He’d be up in their face not waiting like a garden gnome

 

[tony soprano]

Pauga ain’t up for it. Harper has beaten him just about every time he had the ball. Still in it but you can tell they’re a class above.

Can't defend hence why we signed him

 

[InBenjiWeTrust]

If we make an error, we always compound it by an awful defence, Leilua needs to spend some time in the NSW cup, his defence is nonexistent. This is his third of fourth game where he is found in defence frequently due to his lateral movement. Why we cannot give Tuilagi a chance?

Thanks Lucy .......how about make a positive move in D on Turbo and put him into a different postcode you pussy
