    • He is the one that said Mark is not at fault for us not signing players and it being another which it seems to be Moses. Hmmmm

      • While some of what the guy might be true (I got no idea), he is a bit of an attention seeker with what he posts. Some of his opinions are pure rubbish too

        • I noticed when tuilagi missed a tackle that lead to a try mitch looked at him threw his arms up and said what was that? Tuilagi def said sonething back to him i reckon he said what about your missed tackle that led to a try. Mitch is not a captains arsehole 

          • Are you sure it was Tuilagi? Tuilagi did not miss any tackles that led to tries. Closest possibilities were Moses' missed tackle (Kini), where Tuilagi was inside Moses but it was not Tuilagi's fault Moses fell off the tackle, and the try where the Titans hooker ran right between Walker and Guymer (?) and Tuilagi was on the outside but again not his tackle to make. On that last one Moses does turn around but I thought he was throwing his hands up at the middle ruck defenders who let the hooker run right between them?
