First Grader
I know the South's side scored 5 tries but at least 3 were kicks that were almost impossible to stop including magical tap back, off post into arm and a pretty pinpoint South's kicking game.
Thing is, this Manly side showed more line speed, numbers in tackles and urgency in general in a most part solid defensive display
I have no doubt Flanagan is behind the extra grit, Seinold has changed the defensive structures and Dymock the aggressive sprinkles.....the Attitude starts with defence and I think the side will improve in this area, due to new fresh systems needed in the modern game and the players buying into the new coaches with the belief and willingness to carry it out.
Tonight was only a trial, but it was evident even missing key players there is an increase in defensive intensity and if this is to continue and only improve, this team at full strength will be a definite contender.
Defence is key and I reckon exactly what our "new" coaching staff will build the season around, as the side has major pointscoring abilty.....and will only fire more on the back of strong defence.
