What games have Manly played relying on a FG to win???
Most games been blown away early & not many wins by 1 point....or lost by 1 ???
Need to win the physical contest before worrying about a FG ....most games decided by tries, but if we bitch about goals...the point would be Lyon hitting more 2 pointers....then worry about the 1.
Lyon wasn't on last night with the boot but have a looksee what he's done this season before having a pop ya goose.
 
I have been an advocate of this for years.

Given most teams score once ever 4 sets inside the 30 on average taking the field goal option makes sense. you will get the point but more importantly get the ball back which means the opposition has to make back to back sets. Sure the scoreboard is slowly ticking but keeping possession at over 50% wins games.

Once this practice is settled then you can field a side with speed etc to tear the opp a new one in the last 10 when the are tired due to all the back to back sets.


Cant agree. 4 out of 5 field goals miss and the 7 tackle rule means you will be being under extreme pressure at your own end every time.
