It was a fifty-fifty game ffs. Against a strong team in good form. merkins pissing and moaning about our attack because we can't score at will don't understand how it works. No team can score at will. You do your best over 80 minutes and hope it's better than the opposition. We'll get there. Hopefully soon.
Their try was luck too .... waqa flopped to the ground and subsequently should have been called a dominant tackle ... they were VERY lucky to get a penalty which then directly led to mannahs sin bin and then the try
Effort was absolutely there. At the same time I'm sure there's plenty we could improve on. I'm happy enough for people to vent, particularly after a fifth straight loss. I used to have real emotions too.
We did that a couple of times today. One of them got a 40/20.
An even less relevant question is which was the last team to start the season 5 and 0? Because that's whom the Dragons and Warriors are emulating this year.
If the weren't under pressure their communication would have been much better.
Agreed. A bit of variety puts the defence in two minds. We were so keen to get at Maloney (who missed ten tackles) that they saw it coming and forced some rushed plays. We need to take our medicine when it's not on. And, as you say, throw some variety at them. Get the defence to make some mistakes.
But compared to last week Maloney did f**k all, so we definitely took the wind out of his sails early.
