Can you point to any in particular? Especially any since the first 3 or 4 rounds? I think this is a massive furphy -- a bit like the "Quade can't tackle" business. For instance, Scott Allen went through each of the tries he supposedly let in against the Hurricanes and made clear that the worst he could be accused of was not making a better read on that crazy Savea juggling try, but even there he got wrongfooted by an odd bounce of the ball.
If your point was in relation to an established and experienced player it would hold more water, but Izzy is still learning the game. The tries i'm referring to were in the earlier rounds (don't get to see as many Tahs games in Melbourne). Furphy or not, the Lions wings have been excellent so far and would probably look at Izzy playing there with relish.
I'm certainly not hating on the guy and eagerly anticipate seeing him play in gold, but i'm cautious about putting him up against some of their more damaging runners. Start him from the bench in the first test and see how he goes.
