That was worthy of a thread???? It's always tough for a fullback to tackle a player one on one when they're running at full speed after a break, especially someone that size.

Fail.

I'm thinking Miss Tackle of 2010 would look more like this:

Im sure Cattai would have had some pretty bad missed tackles this year.

 

[stormbati]

Or Watmough

 

[Walt Flanigan]

Jamie Soward's attempt on Joe Picker was better than that.

 

[DRAGONSFAN101]

Jamie Soward's attempt on Joe Picker was better than that.

Remember that time Jamie Soward won a premiership?

 

[Eels Dude]

Remember that time Jamie Soward won a premiership?

This time last year Brett Finch had won a premiership... now, not so much.

I assume you're talking about the number 21?

Surely you wouldn't be stupid enough to be talking about Slater taking on someone 25kgs heavier than him going almost full pace?

 

[Marshall_magic]

Sandow has to win the award, he misses so many some of them are bound to be crackers.

 

[RWB]

Sandow has been hard done by here, you have to take consistency into consideration and he has shown that over the whole year

You obviously know f**k all about tackling. Slater the arrogant big headed merkin let his ego get the better of him and tried taking him high up, legs/hip tackle would have brought him down.

Shame there's not many good defensive fullbacks around these days, few and far between and it's certainly an underrated ability imo.

 

[Serc]

They are coached to tackle up high a lot these days and wrap up the ball...but a good fullback knows when to use both techniques...Slater certainly used the wrong one that time!

What an armchair hero you are :lol:.

You one of those blokes who tries to tell players what to do from the grandstand with a stubby of VB in your hand?

Don't think there would be too many blokes who would stop Tony Williams 1 on 1 in that situation. He breaks more tackles than most players when he chooses to get involved in the game.

 

[The Engineers Room]

I think if he went low he would have trampled. There was no way of stopping Williams there.

 

[RWB]

Preston Campbell has shown time after time if you go low no matter who the bloke is you've got a good chance of bringing him down... I could understand if he went high with Williams two metres away from the line because he has to wrap up the ball but you learn this sh*t in under 10's.
