The Sia one was a head on tackle, he got flat footed as he did at hull.
If Ashe and shenton are missing tackles due to being to tired and needing a rest then we have big problems!
I'll give you the Sia one, I don't think his defence is his strength (although when he hits them, they stay hit).
Ashe is injured, and Shenton may well be fatigued if not injured also.
The point is, rather than pick out individual mistakes, there has to be a recognition that we're sending out a team that's knocked about, full of kids and out of position players due to an injury situation the like of which I've not seen in 27 years of watching Saints.
It's harsh, IMO, to be overly critical on individual mistakes when the reality is with the luck and off field issues we've had thus far we are punching well and truly above our weight.
