Shilcock that was woeful, he's not having a great game.
during that there were times where the tackle was made but no ruck formed and our defenders backed off, get over the ball and at least slow it down for crying out loud

Shillcock has been a liability in defence. They’ve really shown up a weakness I hadn’t noticed before.

In any case, that aweful missed tackle just cost us 7 just before the break.Tigers86asw wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 4:01 pm Shillcock has been a liability in defence. They’ve really shown up a weakness I hadn’t noticed before.

So his defence should therefore be better…I dont blame him for Skelton running over him but in that passage he was found wanting more than once. All came from a poor read from Chessum in midfield.Jimmy Skitz wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 4:03 pmhe's done well this season but he's still a 15 playing 10Tigers86asw wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 4:01 pm Shillcock has been a liability in defence.

He's a really good player and an asset to the team. A great back up to Pollard.Jimmy Skitz wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 4:03 pmhe's done well this season but he's still a 15 playing 10Tigers86asw wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 4:01 pm Shillcock has been a liability in defence.

That missed tackle however...

Not sure anybody would have stopped Skelton from there.Tigers86asw wrote: ↑Sun Jan 14, 2024 4:04 pmSo his defence should therefore be better…I dont blame him for Skelton running over him but in that passage he was found wanting more than once.

Bring on Pollard & Wiese as for Shillcock a 15 playing at 10. A 15 must be able to tackle below the waist.
