Next up in my edition of looking closer at our defence and nitpicking errors for discussion. I had initially thought this one was Teig's fault, but on closer inspection Ronnie is probably the main culprit.

Short side scoot. Iro goes open which is fine as we still have 3 on 2 on the short side. Should be easily covered.

However Ronnie over chases, getting right into Teigs space and opening a hole on the inside. Ronnie is then on his heels and unable to make solid contact and Teig has limited opportunity to join the tackle.
Put it down to “over-enthusiasm”

I love Ronnie but he was an absolute liability in defence tonight, directly responsible for two tries. Ffs what is his issue with not trusting Iro???
Yeah.
I do love his enthusiasm and he does bring some brilliance to our team but can also be a liability sometimes with some brain explosions. A bit like what Ramien was being accused of last season, so watch out next year!!!

His smarts also got a bloke binned in which we scored during that time.

Needs to work on the trust with Iro. Fitz would be right on to this.

Has been very good this year, i'll forgive a few small lapses.

Anyone else think he scores IF Dom doesn't hold him back ?
Penalty Try ?
I also LOVED that hit on that Pom as he took the bomb
DETONATION.

PS : I wouldn't swap him for ANYONE

Yeh I reckon he scores.

One of the camera angles was a bit deceiving as it looked like cover was there however on the live camera angle you could see they were a good couple of metres away.

Yep. Funny, I watched that a few times now and Dom started into the open side and wasn’t close enough to stop him and only got close due to Su slowing Ronnie down
i thought 100% he would have scored.
