What got to me more than the two gifted tries to Manly was our inability to make any ground with the footy.
It seemed to me like time after time we would be lucky to make 25m in five tackles after Manly had kicked the ball. Sure we did have the odd good set, but we were dreadful in the second half when Manly lifted. Their linespeed in defence was terrific, and we were getting smashed.
Thank God we have Fui, otherwise we would really be screwed. But he shouldn't have to do it on his own. Most people here would agree that our forward pack is our strength, yet the lack of metres in our pack is truly a concern.
What do others think? Do we need improvement in this area, or is it OK to rely on Hayne's massive boot to get us out of trouble?
