There are numerous examples this year of GI being just as piss weak in defence at fullback. Parra game where John Folau brushed him aside like wasn't there. Doesn't get called on it like AJ has.

His defence is a lot better than AJ though.

Yes GI hasn't defended as well as the last few years but AJ had a tackling efficiency of 33percent.

This years in games GI has been around 65-70percent at times which is a lot better than AJ but down a bit on previous years as I already said.

But GI has been carrying a bad knee, hip/ribs and a bad back, so it's understandable.

Tigers were outstanding, they ran hard from the first minute and were committed for the full 80 minutes.

Souths were nothing short of disgraceful and in particular the soft effort from the forwards.

Biggest losing margin since Maguire joined the club.

I can't be bothered reading 26 pages so apologies if this has been covered before.

That was easily our worst performance under Maguire - just terrible. The Tigers gave it to us and we had no response. I'm not sure how much to take from that as it was just so out of character from this team. Even though we've been poor this year we've competed right till the end. Friday was just horrible.

From the Tigers point of view, they'd do well to rid of the bash-and-barge crap and spread the ball like they did on Friday - was much better attack from them, even if we didn't offer much by way of resistance.

Well done Tigers.

There was no one else though who could come in besides Tim Grant who missed out.

Lowe had a solid game with 40 tackles 0 missed and 12 hit ups for 78m.

Goodwin made some errors but never gave up the effort was there and he did some reasonable things.

McQueen effort was crap.

Johnston effort at fullback was crap.

Clark and McInnes were crap too along with Tyrrell.

1. Grant should have played, in fact he is better than Lowe!

2. Goodwin is awful, made errors. Goodwin is always good for 1-2 good things, then compounded with 10 gosh awful things!

3. McQueen should be shipped off to whatever team he wants, don't bother to match it, he is terrible.

4. Johnson isn't a fullback. Can't position himself, and has absolutely no idea how to pass. Not to mention his defence.

5. McInnes was the most disappointing to be honest, he was that bad you had to put Sutton at 5/8!
