[QUOTE="Every Time Ref, post: 824764, member: 71826"] I think you're letting him off lightly there. Marking the fringe if a ruck is a basic skill, it's not an especially complicated one in and of itself and no international coach should expect players in any position to arrive at his training camp unsure on those basics. On the other hand - without going back to check I don't know, but it might well be that he did not have adequate cover outside him so felt he needed to try to cover the pass, hence buying the dummy. Problems in the defensive line as a whole like that you could certainly put down to inadequate coaching at a team level. [/QUOTE]
