Manly play teams back into form

First Grader
The best medicine for a team down on form is to play Manly.
The lack of line speed, contact and ability to shut down key players, make them ideal for struggling teams and players to win back confidence.
Tonight Thurston found more time and space than the entire season off Taumoloulo and a reserve grade pack.
Benji Marshall looked like he was back to his teenage years against Manly also.
This is becoming too familiar.
There are numerous reasons including attitude, enthusiasm and belief that you can visually see in any game - controlling that ruck.
Unfortunately for Manly, the opposition rolls through here with ease and against an up tempo side in coming weeks I feel scared of cricket scores.
Before I cop a bagging, will support the side good and bad, but too say this performances are not disappointing would be BS....

I think this just shows how when anything goes against us we crumble.
That was on par with the parra game at ANZ stadium this year which I was at live this year.
If we are not careful you can see us going on another long losing streak.
 
We will be going in a losing streak at least 5 games blind Freddy can see that.

The only thing we can hope for this season is avoiding the spoon BUT right now i actually feel it might not be a bad thing to get the spoon. !!
