    I think we have the slight wind advantage so hopefully better territory. Have to score early to make a game of it.

    Some of our forwards look slow. That first try was symptomatic - passive tackling with players spreading for next phase, and no one attacking the ball at the ruck. You could see it coming.

      @kev as through the thread, no energy.

      Matich for Saimoni, Adams for Apoua, LMH for Nock, then after 15, Woods and LHE to come on too.

        cracks me up listening to the comms, they mention a player (Nock) about how important he is, shows they havent watched much of him.

                            fark, only 7 points form those possession and territory stats...hopefully they will tell the final quarter

                                          that end pretty much sums our game up.

                                          Plenty of endeavour, just lacking any accuracy.

                                          Stuff to like from that, but ultimately, we have seen this movie before and dont like the ending.

                                          IMO, there are several of the starters need a rocket and be benched, i know the comms were prasiing Nock, but he only had about 10 mons where he was decent, rest he is a handbrake with his indecision
