      @KiwiMurph I really wish they'd play Perofeta or Sullivan at 10, even if just to see how they're going there.

        Fucking stupid from Ofa

        Well-reffed, I though. Not much else Ofa could do there.

        He's not in control, reckless and lucky.

        If the player stays upright, it is just a good tackle. It depends whether you think Ofa has time to change.

        No he doesn't, because he's not in control. He didn't give himself time to change, that's exactly it.

        What time is he supposed to give himself when in the space of one step the attacker dives to ground?

        I find supporters way overestimate the ability of players to make decision about whether to pull-out from watching on TV.

        He didn't give himself any option regardless of what the ball carrier did. This is the issue, you can't do that anymore.

              In what alternative universe is Sam Darry better than Tom Robinson? I don’t know what he has done…apart from saying he is leaving.

                  Come on man, it's really simple. This day and age, you can't fly in uncontrolled hoping you get lucky with the hit. I don't have a problem with the outcome in this instance, but Ofa left himself no out if that went wrong.

                  "uncontrolled"? You are delusional if you think players can adapt within that timeframe other than by making completely passive tackles.

                    Not even looking like taking on the line. Stifles the attack.

                          @Bones and that there is a big problem.

                          I note those lambasting Ofa didn't mention the tah tackle on Darry earlier when he was upright and drove upwards into his chin and didn't even get a second look by officials.

                              @KiwiMurph totally agree regarding BB ,would rather see Sullivan starting at 10 ,looks far more assured
                              BB is a liability
