How many of you farkers complaining about our type of attack were actually at the game? FMD it pissed down 1/2 hour before the game, the humidity was 100%, it was farking hot, slippery, the ball was wet just from the moisture in the air, let alone the buckets of sweat dripping off the players. Wet weather football was the rule for the day. For ball control it was worse than playing in pissing down rain, which it did in the second 1/2 just for good measure. I’m very surprised we didn’t have more players dropping with cramps, it was debilitatingly stifling. The perpetual complainers about our fitness, just shut the fark up, the locals were in far worse condition than us.
Think about it, JAC who has to one of the fittest NRL players was cramping from early in the second half and no amount of rehydration made any difference. The physios recon it will take 2 to 3 days for the players to recover and get back to their proper hydration levels.
The conditions were farkin horrid and to play and win the way we did was a bloody huge effort. Round 2 awaits, let’s go.
