Message: [QUOTE="Brotherdu, post: 2830362, member: 9226"] My thoughts on the game - [LIST] [*]First half was probably the best half of footy we have put together this year, Milf and Kodi controlled the game well and we actually got some repeat sets and a try off a kick! [*]Scrambling defence was good for the most part, however our left edge really struggled. There were at least 3 or 4 times a better side would have capitalised on the space available.....there was a lot of it. [*]I thought Kodi was impressive in defence. There will always be times when he gets run over, that is just physics, a'la the Merrin try, but he never took a backward step and that is all we can ask. [*]The Jet was great, fingers crossed his ankle is not too bad and it is just a week or two on the side lines. [*]McGuire was good in defence, but his attack leaves me frustrated. We were badly struggling for metres and he was putting in terrible passes to someone in a worse position than him. [*]Offa didn't impress me. I thought he was very flatfooted in defence and didn't have much punch in attack. Certainly showed why he has fallen behind Essese and Pangai. I hear Offa may be in trouble with the cops, so time for Fai? [*]We SERIOUSLY need to put away that terrible kick for touch, that has a 70% chance of missing touch, 20% chance of going out on the full and 10% chance of actually finding the rope. Put up a bomb and give the opp the chance to knock it on. Our kick chase is our hall mark, I don't get why we decide to put it away when we have a lead. [*]Moga.......is he our new Maranta? I actually loled at one stage when I got exactly what I expected......get the ball in space (maybe I'm being a bit harsh here), don't pass, spin around, throw the ball forward...........Having said that, his try was pretty good, even though most of the work was done already. [*]We missed a lot of tackles, but I don't think that was too avoidable. The Panthers were playing hot potato and for the most part we coped okay. The constant repeat sets are what did for us. [/LIST] What next? [LIST] [*]Manly are playing quite well. A week off will do us good, but if we clock off against them, like we did last night, they will beat us. [*]We should beat the Tigers, even undermanned, which would hopefully put us in an 8-3 position to begin the origin fun and games. After our tough start to the season, I'd be stoked with that.
