Message: [QUOTE="ningnangnong, post: 3571831, member: 1848"] I don't why I did this to myself, but I just watched a replay of Cleary's match-winning try for the first time. Prior to that, I only had the memory of what I saw live in the stadium. Cleary was brilliant in that last 20 minutes, there's no denying that, but having seen the replay of that final try - man, what on earth were we doing? Any half worth their salt would score there. Yes, we were fatigued, but geez man, talk about a lack of concentration. The lack of defensive structure on that play has me astounded. It's just incredibly basic stuff you should have a handle on by the time you are in first-grade. Not just Walsh either, but Riki and Walters over-committing, with no anticipatory instincts, or awareness that the best half in the game might just step back inside. I know they were out on their feet, but it's just so frustrating to concede a basic try like that in the biggest game of the year. Again, no disrespect to Cleary, he dragged them back into it and pretty much won it on his own, but that was just such a soft, soft try to decide a grand final. [/QUOTE]
