Even Graham is coming good now, Nikora being left in the dust by the rest of the pack.

Doesn’t even add much experience or anything
Drop him

In his defence, he had to cover for both Johnson and Ferris on debut

This is just not true. He was caught out repeatedly. Lack of confidence in Ferris may have been an issue, but that’s on him. Ferris ans Katoa were solid except for the two times Nikora messed up and left that edge stripped for numbers.

Mate SJ has been cleaning up Nikora's mess in D for a good 6 weeks or so.

Brits a good footy player but suffering some 2nd year syndrome for whatever reason. Really looks lost out there & totally off the pace. Needs to make way for Talakai or Wilton.

Because all he does is sit of SJs shoulder, and everyone knows that’s.

Exactly can’t recall him creating anything by himself, I assume he has got his head through the other side of a tackle for a offload but can’t remember.

That wouldn't be fair to other teams
Johno , Talakai , Ramian and Katoa to deal with

I wouldn't mind so much if he was defensively sound. He's offering nothing but confusion.
Normally he is pretty good on defense but last night was bad, at one stage he missed the same guy 3 times last night, in 1 tackle

He's not alone on falling off tackles unfortunately. We hit but don't stick. Makes me sick it's like 13 Maloneys

Agree, I struggle to think of anyone in our team that’s is making their tackles stick at the moment. It’s concerning.

Thing is we all get hard ons about our forwards in attack. Not seeing much criticism about them in defence.

Wade's improved. He saved our arse on a few break aways. But yeah staying in the tackle & containing the offload need to be seriously worked on. I know its his bread & butter when he's not suspended but TPJ was offloading at will.

Its across the board. We fall out of shape so easily & it becomes panic stations immediately. Don't get me started on retreating D 10m out.

Still hearing plenty about Woods, but yeah, I wouldn't even know how the others are going
