Message: [QUOTE="Big Pete, post: 3166074, member: 1899"] It was Souths best performance of the season, but I thought the score was more reflective of how battered the Sea Eagles are. They did not respond well to last week's shock loss and once Souths got a roll on they threw in the towel. Over the past couple of years, Manly have really outkicked their coverage, but every now and then they come up with one of these performances that just exposes how light on depth they are. You see flashes of it in the games they win as well, where they'll put in a terrible half, only to come home strong usually on the back of Turbo. The established combinations have definitely helped Souths this season. If you look at all the top teams, the key playmakers have all played together for a number of years now. We're not really seeing a Morris/T. Smith, Marshall/Prince or Firman/Thurston come from no where and take the competition by storm. I don't think they've played that well, there's just not that many good teams this year. With that said, Bennett handled the 'retirements' of Inglis and Burgess extremely well and has helped set them up moving forward. [/QUOTE]
