    ‘A hell of a knock’: McInnes’ mammoth 78-tackle effort to top NRL’s hardiest forwards

    Fox League

    Sharks enforcer Cameron McInnes delivered a hell of a knock against the Panthers, making a record 78 tackles in his side's 28-0 loss.

    Canberra Raiders coach Ricky Stuart is looking to defence to click the Green Machine's attack into gear after another stuttering performance.

    The Raiders had plenty of opportunities to score against Newcastle on Saturday, but were unable to take advantage of them in the 28-6 loss at Canberra Stadium.

    That lack of potency in attack has been a problem all season for the Green Machine - highlighted by the fact it was tackled 40 times inside the Knights' 20m zone, compared with the visitors' 12.
