I think there has been a discussion relating to this previously (not Ipape specifically but it may have been on RLFans)

Lees and Knowles set the tone for Saints defensive line, but also had quite a few missed / mis-timed tackles. So is it a case of they arent good defenders or they are putting pressure on the attacking team, and thus likely to make a few more errors. Most teams have a defensive line leader so to speak, and they set the tone for the line speed. So with Ipape, is it this or is he a weak defender, and should we be targeting him and making him work to reduce his attacking abilities?
