Quote: Wilde 3 "I disagree, he does a lot of defensive work and is taking a hit up every set i would say. He is probably our worst culprit for penalties too - which are not normally offsides etc, they are more fatigue style penalties - lazy high tackle, laying on etc'"
Agree entirely. You can almost see the fatigue coming on. In the Agar days I complained that Tickle and others either weren't subbed or were subbed just after they started making mistakes rather than just before. Ticks of course needs to be on as much as possible for his kicking but I was hoping that PG would manage the bench and rotation better and that with more kickers in the team that would help. On Saturday to be fair keeping Tickle on the pitch was a good call and probably got us the point in the end.
