There is something systemically wrong with our second halves, and it comes down to attitude versus laziness.

It's happened too often over the past few years now, and it's a culture problem.

I can't even rewatch and enjoy the games, because the capitulations make the games unsatisfying
Dragons down to 12 men and we play 2 sets up the middle not even a thought to try and play wide and outnumber them. It was just dumb dumb dumb and piss poor game management.

Boy oh boy, Schu is a worry. Showed a couple of great moments, a few poor moments, and then invisible for most of the remaining time. I guess he's consistent with this sort of performance.

They had 60% of the ball, 8 - 5 penalty count in there favour and we made 12 errors, that would have have a lot to do with it, plus the team sheet, we have our share of outs, yer, but I get what your saying, Just not today mate, we have 300 and 100 times more important reasons to celebrate the win.
PS forgot the 6 - 1 against us set restarts.

Ill take the win, first in 20 years down there. Not a great performance but i guess the glimmer of hope remains.

Speed kills and was good to see the left edge get some space again.

Now im going to try and forget the game by watching an even more frustrating team...the Wallabies, the All Blacks may run in 70 tonight..

It's fuking frustrating and irritating beyond belief. If this guy thinks he should command the big $$$ then what he throws up as far a game management snd involvement for the full 80 minutes is garbage.

Yes because we lack resolve and discipline
Have we ever pinned a team down their end with swarming committed defence and fast off the line? I don't ever remember seeing it this season. Great Manly teams in the past would do that consistently.
