'we pride ourselves on defence'

[MrDave]

I'll give you one. Mathers is crap.

Found this quite interesting too:

Feka 17 games, 222 tackles, missed 7. Not bad considering length of time he's actually on the field and that his defence is generally considered poor.

In terms of technique Feka is very good in defence but when he gets tired he just can't get to the tackles especially when teams target him after fast play the ball.

Yeah I agree I was just a bit surprised with how low his missed tackles were.

To miss a tackle you have to be within touching distance of the ball carrier
