Thanks for posting this. I was in an aeroplane when the game was played and I'd only seen the highlights. My observations, apart from the obvious ones enuciated by many earlier poster, are:
We now have speed; offloading ability, fitness and enthusiasm.
I love the way Uate and Lawrence are just balls of energy. Many of our players look like they have been carved from granite - no sign of anyone being unfit. Green is playing more of a halfback role, allowing DCE to be more ad-lib. He is taking many of the line kicks and easing the burden off Cherry. We also won the penalty count, which is a rarity. That first 40-minutes was sublime; almost no mistakes and showing the flair I've come to love from Manly teams of the past.
