A win is a win and it feels really good.
We scored 3 tries off kicks.
Tries off kicks can come off real skill and sometimes just pure luck. Tonight all our tries off kicks were from pure luck. When the ball goes up the ball bounces off shoulders, heads etc etc with a loose ball etc etc.
The Smith try was just a barge over that should have been stopped. Our best constructed tries this year happened when Foran was involved and we are losing him. Not good,
Now concerning is the defense. I dont understand how we are in the lead, dominating possession, where in the last 10 of the 1st half and most of the 2nd half where the opposition are making 80-90 metres a set.
Not moving off the line, falling off tackles, giving up off load after off load, this after dominating the score board and possession. This is something that has started to occur in the last 3-4 weeks especially against the Raiders, Manly and tonight.
Are we badly unfit? Check out mentally? Cant handle adversity?
Again, very happy for a win but some real disturbing things are in our game,
