@crucial if he had slid out to cover Naholo the space woulda been opened on the inside.
Didn't need to slide. Rushing up created the hole. That's where sometimes you need to hold ground on defence and make them come to you.

Great hands Luke Whitelock....
Good enough for an England call up if he wasn't already taken.

@hydro11 What are those?
Metres gained in contact is an obvious one. Pure speed as well.
Don't forget while Todd is pretty short, Ardie Savea is at least 6 foot 5 - a real lineout option at international level.

Why is Marshall saying Naholo shouldn’t have been allowed to go for that turnover in which he won the penalty?
He was the first man on his feet to the tackle, of course he is allowed a crack FFS, doesn’t matter how many people were involved in the tackle and now on the ground.

He seemed to be saying that you can't get a turnover from a ruck.

@kev bits of everything but if the defender had held back on his marker the ball carrier would likely have held on for a few more steps giving the rest of the D time to get in line. If he had still passed early then it was a pass behind the gain line with a chance for defenders to come across. As it was the defender forced the pass to a man in a gap made even bigger by rushing up.

It's Marshall. What does he know anyway. Just ignore the twat.

Yea, that’s the problem. How was it a ruck when Naholo was the first one there?

Also ball security and tackle work rate to name a couple more.

Ball security how? Tackle work rate as in - attempts more tackles?
