DWZ’s cloak hanger of a tackle that got him sent for 10?
For all his beautiful acrobatic tries which I love, his defence and reads is still absolutely shocking.
The whole reach out with the arm and grab is another example of his inability to read a simple 2:1 defence.
Too busy worrying about getting beat on the outside then realises he’s overcompensated to instinctively reach out his arm for a shirt grab. It’s really ameturish defending.
At that moment I knew we’d lost the game.
Is the game on defence really that hard to read? Is it going too fast for him to decide the spacing whether slide vs coming in????
Also dropped a fairly straightforward catch from which the Storm scored sooner after at the start of the game.
Unfortunately these were two pivot moments that contributed to our lost.
The Storm know our wingers out wide cant defend and they exploited that weakness beautifully
