First of all, I want to say that the Refs decided the game tonight.
How can that Reynolds "try" be awarded?? Are they blind?? Obviously, the multiple replays are of no use.
Secondly, the penalty right on full time is a bit harsh. Then, to follow it up with a gift win in front of the post?? Manly fans feel cheated!
New Players =
- I'm impressed with recruits like Hiku who keeps improving with every match.
- Lawrence & Horo, also star recruits. Recruitment department, take a bow.
What's missing =
- The telling factors in the last few weeks:
1. Discipline - we gift away too many penalties and drop too many balls.
2. Completions - we don't do well here. We need to go back to the old school of finishing the sets of sixes. The old story, you cannot win without the football.
3. Big Joe and Kingy - We lost two big bookends. We don't have the props to lay the foundations for the backs. There's not enough room for the smaller guys. It showed tonight.
We may need to shop for some big tough 80 min guys.
Forwards that can do a lot of barging and big hit ups without feeling the pinch.
