TICKER.
We showed more of it tonight than for most of last season.
Those of you who have come on here tonight and put sh*te on certain players should go and buy a mirror.
It's the first round ffs. We are coming off the back of not only a poor last season, but a very poor 2008 culture. Hagan himself admitted that his mind wasn't on the job from July.
To be honest, we showed more flair tonight than we have done for 18 months.
Yes, there are creases to iron out. Yes there is match fitness to get accustomed to. Yes there are players who made mistakes, or their timing wasn't quite right etc......etc..... but.......
I saw plenty to be excited about tonight. It was a tough gig over there.
We are already doing double cutout plays and run-arounds. Stuff other teams have been doing for years, successfully. We actually scored two tries from such plays. I was excited. We haven't really been able to execute that sort of stuff properly for several years now. Even 2007 - a successful year, we weren't that good at this sort of stuff.
For those who have just jumped on the f**king Criticism Cart, have another think about things tomorrow.
You just may think a bit differently.
This is as happy as I have been after a first round loss for years. I can see the light....................
