Don't knock one player for a pass which was intercepted....others has done the same in the past and will continue to do so in the future....they are attempting to open up the play, get the open areas used for clearing lines / attacking etc. A missed tackle by a half-back is noticed more than the missed tackles, dropped tackles etc by forwards.... no player has a perfect 80 mins, if they did then what would the games be like?
Instead of being critical be constructive.
The work load put in by certain players is far too often ignored because of a couple of errors.
A try scorer missed a couple of vital tackles but because he scored does this get forgotten.... Several forwards didn't hold the ball in a tackle but because they were always in the thick off things does this mean they (the errors) can be "forgotten"?
Commentators were singing the praises of certain forwards for their work rate and fitness, but with a dropped ball/pass they didn't say the players were any poorer for doing that, they stated that they would be disappointed with the action. One poor pass, one poor kick, one loose tackle does not make a poor player.
The game was won, it was won the hard way and the opposition were nilled for 45 minutes. The hard 45 mins of the game. All of the side deserve praise for their resilience and teamwork for pulling off the win, not having individuals singled out for a couple of errors.
ps Menzie is injured
