Message: [QUOTE="Steve, post: 2396300, member: 1799"] Unfortunately it's looking like a pretty costly win. Although Beale was solid at fullback losing Hoffman is a massive blow. He creates so much at the back and his hard running often puts us in a good position to start our sets. Still we covered well earlier this season without him so we're just going to have to revert back to those good habbits. The Thiaday tackle wasn't the worst this year but I still reckon he'll get a low grading. Think the last time he was at the judiciary was 2007. My guess is he'll get a week for it. It was great to get the win for Lockyer's farewell although apart from that I don't think there's much to take from the match. We were so sluggish in attack. Our pet play of turning the ball back in to the forwards to hit it up the middle isn't as effective against the top teams. We saw it in Melbourne and today - the good teams don't have those holes that we go looking for. Oh and I can't stand Manly but based on that performance I think the Cowboys are finished. Unless they pull out one of the greatest performances in their short history I don't see how they can get past Manly. As a depleted unit they were great today and I don't think Hasler will lose any sleep in dropping today's game. [/QUOTE]
