Message: [QUOTE="rnabokov, post: 2594543, member: 1847"] People seem to forget that the opposition only plays as well as you let them. For mine, we absolutely prevented Manly from playing their typical game by both relatively first class attack, and equally effective defence, especially on their main strike weapons of Foran, Lyon, Matai and Taufua, as well as controlling the middle with quality and enthusiastic defence. It should also be remembered that we have a less than ideal 5/8 and were missing Hodges, although Copley made his absence somewhat irrelevant for mine. Our game plan was expansive and well executed. The ball did the work. The defence was aggresive and effective by and large. I reckon we would have won even if DCE Whathefuck and Stewart played. We ambushed them good and proper. The scoreboard tells no lies against the equal best team in the comp. The question now is whether we can do this consistently 9/10 times, keep improving as all good teams do, and if we do, for mine we are top 4 material no doubt about it. [/QUOTE]
