What does expecting someone else to help have to do with one on one tackling? Didn't see the tackle, but that seems a bit puzzling.
Farah was a few metres behind Lopini Paea who just made a charge at a small hole which was made and Jason Cayless was standing nearby. Farah made sort of a half hearted attempt to push Paea whilst Cayless just lifted his arms up and didn't get a finger on Paea. This has nothing to do with one on one tackling really, but for Farah to have made the tackle, it would've been 1 on 1 since Cayless did FA.
I don't think he is exempt, his defence is one of the reasons why he's an elite hooker. Rarely though do hookers make 1 on 1 tackles on men 30kg heavier than them. Smith and Friend don't make 1 on 1 tackles on huge blokes without any support the majority of the time, so why does Farah get bagged (well not quite but you sort of get what I'm saying) out for missing a tackle which was Cayless' priority more than his in the first place?
So angry that i pussed out and didnt back Easts 13+ as well as for the win, still i've made $140 bucks so far this league season.
Firstly you fail at maths and secondly Cameron Smith does make 1 on 1 tackles on considerably larger men than him... does it week in week out. I wasn't bagging Farahn as a player because one tackle on it's own doesn't make a player but I found it funny how you just blamed Cayless, you see what you wanna see...
Considering hooker is in the forwards there is no reason why they shouldnt be making tackles on anyone.
