Interestingly on the same page of the tele there was a comment about Andrew Fifita getting a role at the Sharks. No mention there by Rothfeild that the NRL should investigate...

Can the same comparison be done for our defence under the two coaches?

Yes, any member can get in if you have your card on you.

I was in the bar but left after the game. There weren't many fans there when I left, maybe less than 15?

I think Meaney submits to a tackle so he doesn't get manhandled over the sideline or back in goal
