I bet Bradford supporters are cringing at Ewwenorfolk. What an embarrassment

Where was it called a genius piece of play? I think I said Smith made him miss. Which he did, whether that was because he was knackered or not Smith made him miss by running the angle he did.

Last week Saints scored 14 tries on the back of 33 missed tackles by HKR. Were Saints lucky?

That was my initial thought.

But, thinking about it, clamping down on kickers being taken out late means that players aren't allowed to jump in at kickers and claim they were committed. The whole point of the rule is to protect kickers being hit without the ball.

No because they happened consistently throughout the game.

There's a big difference between missing shedloads of tackles throughout the game and standing solid for most of it then missing a vital tackle in the last minute.

Nah, they wasn't Wigan fans, Wigan's fans are all angels, they were more likely Wire fans in Wigan tops.

So basically the main message is that missed tackles are flukey and absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with a lack of tackling skill or tiredness. Because they are, of course, purely dependent on the fluke factor

By Damo.

If he was knackered then Smith didn't make him miss, fatigue did.

Your at it again belittling the significance that Lee Smith did in the very last minute. The Wigan defence was on top all game and it took Leeds 80 minutes to break it.

How deluded can you get?

A quirky ball bounce is fluky, Gleason missing the tackle, is just poor tackling.

How deluded can you get?

Do you think Lee Smith planned to win it in the last minute? You'd be an idiot to think they wouldn't have loved to have it wrapped up at half time.
