Quote tim="tim"Don't be stupid, are we jumping back years? Dorn hasn't looked scared to take a tackle or make a tackle in awhile now. This is why I used to criticise the selection of him at SO, he has improved from that and doesn't look like such a rabbit caught in headlights any more. The rest of the team isn't the problem, Dorn was fine defensively in general.'"
You have got to be kidding - he bottles tackles more often than not, he clearly hates contact, he is the original journeyman Aussie. Granted the odd decent try but in my eyes, that in no ways up for the tries he has been directly responsible for. Awful.
And today he wasnt alone. I am struggling to think of one player who put his body on the line for the cause. Ineptitude across the pitch, lack of defensive line discipline and organisation, head in hands time. So many poor players, too many lightweight forwards, too many school boy errors.
