There have been times in this series when Wire, Wigan and St Helens have looked capable but over the three games we've seen the SL clubs make mistakes that, in any other week, they'd probably get away with.
The lack of week-in, week-out intensity that our top clubs have experienced over the last few years is being massive exposed by teams that are just instinctively ruthless.

Last ditch tackling from all three NRL clubs has been phenomenal. They have mastered smothering the ball at high speed.

Am I being harsh on Percival by thinking he should've scored both his chances?

No.
He seems to try and run over the line. On both occasions if he went to the deck and slid he'd probably have scored. The ground is wet so he needs to use the momentum.
However, outstanding defence to sweep across and hold him up on both occasions. |

Nope.In games like this you simply have to take them.Great defensive efforts but a top finisher scores them |

No I think that's fair. As good as the tackles were he should have done better. Especially the second one. |

I agree. Should have taken both.
Can't see anyway back for saints now. |

No. Superb tackles, but you have to find your way to ground the ball in situations like that. Percival's lack of bulk really showing. If we're not careful here, this could set the likes of Percival and Swift right back. It's got to affect a young player's confidence to be shown up like this. |

Gonna say the same, he just needed to make the most of the wet grass and slide before you get to the line, then no defender can hold you up. |

First one he should score (although you've got to credit the Souths defender)
Second one he shouldn't try and reach out. Take the tackle and play the ball imo. |

And in each game it seems to be the whole, SL ref not wanting to seem bias so over compensates and lets the NRL team get away with more than SL team.
