Team v Knights

I remember Rocco getting sucked in by a block runner early on, which forced DWZ to come in. Might've been on Skelton's try.

Not sure where else it broke down though.

Our right side defense last week consistently looked like it was a man down, and it actually didn't seem to be DWZs fault at all. I couldn't work out who wasn't doing their job
Yeah I noticed that too. You can’t blame DWZ for coming in and leaving an overlap when the guy he’s coming in to tackle is otherwise unmarked and that was definitely the case for the Tigers first try, at least. Otherwise he just stays on the outside man and the centre runs in unopposed.

anyway Capewell for me there on the weekend, Ali can tackle but Capes positioning is superior.

Yeah, I guess its pretty easy for us to say that he shouldn't come off his wing but the reality is that if something goes wrong inside him, he's going to be left carrying the can either way. Sometimes it obviously is his fault, but sometimes it isn't.

If you compare the team lists we basically put 40 on them.
You mould the 2 teams to make the best 13 you probably only have Young over DWZ
Best over Pompey and maybe
Thompson over Ford
But this game scares me especially with all the noise around Ponga. They might just fire up and produce a massive performance and give him the middle finger and say see ya

Always a worry that teams will conjure something up...but Fletcher Sharpe is out, as is Dylan Lucas. It's a very average Knights side, who want their coach out.
