[QUOTE="Darwin, post: 402521, member: 24910"] I didn't think Mathewson was bad on defense at all. I only remember him missing the one tackle all match, and the match stats I've looked at back this up. Admittedly it was a costly miss tackle, but one missed tackle doesn't mean he had a poor defensive game in my opinion. I agree Brett was again poor on defense (though better than the week before), while the likes of Lachie Munro, Luke MacAlister, and Luke Braid all missed some crucial tackles during the match. I agree on Burgers' try at the end: If the ref had asked "try or no-try" I don't think a try would have been awarded, as there was no clear evidence of the try. However the ref thought he saw the ball on the line, so the question he asked was the correct one. Based on this, I think awarding the try was the correct result. [/QUOTE]
