Could do with some more 3,2,1's.
After catching the replay I didn't think the boys were THAT diabolical and honestly I believe Newcastle did us some favours by highlighting our weaknesses. With that said I thought it really was "one of those games" where nothing goes right. Whenever we had Newcastle on the back-foot they'd give away a penalty abolishing any kind of momentum. Players received injuries and others just played poorly. I'd have to disagree with a point Johns Magic made, I didn't think Lockyer played too poorly, in fact I thought he was one of our better players on the night and his kicking game in the second half was fairly good.
Also on the replay I didn't think Wapau played too badly. Took some weak options in defence but I thought he was quite damaging with ball in hand and his offloading ability kept the Knights on the back-foot at stages (then we'd manage to screw it up with either a forward pass or knock on).
With that said, I hope we see a few changes come Tuesday. I believe the likes of McCullough and Glenn could benefit with a stint in Q Cup.
. funny that i got the mcmanus call wrong though... folau is just unbelievable under that high ball. unstoppable.
