OK I’m an exponent of wanting to see the knockers giving credit were its due. This is very few and far between coming from them. But I’ll take some of my own medicine and “give credit were it due�
Sam Harris had one of his better games especially in the first half. The try from that top kick from Monas was sensational, his defence and attack was a good improvement. Witts and Monas long kicking game was top notch. Alberts had a strong game, he is the goods. Randall had a reasonable.
Tonight was the night for Mattai & Kane Cleal to show that they were NRL standard; sadly they were an absolute disgrace. They single hand idly gave the tigers the first half, they gave away penalties, dropped of tackles and basically showed a complete lack of discipline and they didn’t improve in the second half. If Mattai gets re-signed I’ll be amazed. From tonight’s performance he should never get in ahead of Stephenson again in 2005.
Our attack was as diabolical as our defence. For the first time this year I will say that Monas and Witt had absolutely NOTHING. Witt continues to offer nothing with the ball in hand. Monas showed a complete lack of vision and composure, very disappointing indeed.
All this shows that our team has nothing without Kennedy, Menzies and Watmough. Is it good enough to say “how can we expect to win without those guys� to that I say. Without them we looked like a team destined for the wooden spoon. We weren’t even competitive. The young guys (Mattai & Kane Cleal) should have stepped up and at least kept there noses clean and composed instead they created havoc for there own team.
So there you have it, “credit were its due�!
