And you can talk about tiredness, but not making effective tackles and then having to scramble defence is far more tiring to a player than making the initial tackle properly. We were flying all over the place and mostly missing.
There is no excuse for that lack of defensive effort. None.

Do you not think there are extenuating circumstances surrounding us shipping 40 points? Or having to 'fly all over the place'?
Like a sellotaped together, mostly injured, rather inexperienced line up?
I don't believe there was lack of effort, just lack of fuel.
