ManlyBacker link said:I agree Mark. We had a great opportunity to rack up a terrific F&A but took poor options most of the second half. Happy with the win, BUT. I can't see Des being pleased either. The Knights just lost it out there with a host of unforgiveable errors and deep down we could have thrown the result away with a better opposition. I'll let the young halves put that down to experience and hope they can deliver better plays another day.

The fact we have been able to beat the Roosters and the table topping Knights is a miracle in itself. Give them some credit.

mickqld link said:The main objective at this stage of the season is to get your defense right. Now consider we still have injury disruption and a lot of new kids on the block I think we are looking very good defensively. We are structured in defense,tough and we hurt in tackles just look at the Knights today, it wasn't all bad luck a lot of it was because of how hard we hit. The attack needs a lot of work but we are missing 2 international centers and are blooding a rookie halfback and a fullback who's been out for 2yrs and a winger out for 1 yr. Once we get that starting backline on the field and fit with DCE having half a season under his belt then our defense is going to allow that attack to unleash and it will be a pleasure to watch. Barring any further injuries this team is going to give the comp. a big shake.
