I don't think I have ever shouted " For fark's sake somebody run straight " so many times ever during a game. We were close to throwing that game away plenty of times. To me that was as bad as we have played in a while and wouldn't have gotten away with it against a good team. BUT it does show how far we've come if we can play that very badly ( in patches ) and still win.
Winning when well below your best is a skill in itself and hopefully we have found it. I honestly think we play heaps better at night and the 'heat' of day games seems to bring out the worst in us at the moment, falling off tackles, fatigue & lack of shape & structure.

I was sitting on the sunny Brookvale Oval hill right on half way yesterday enjoying the game and getting amusement from listening to a variety of amusing sledges about Woods.
Manly looked like they were going to run away with the game within the 1st 2 minutes and then they just looked really flat and "clunky". It didn't help that the refs wouldn't keep the Tigpies back further than 7-8 metres and also seemed to miss several, at best, very flat passes. I also couldn't believe the number of passes that seemed to hit the ground instead of the man.
Glad to see that the 2nd half was better and Manly came away with the 2 points.
It was also great to see the Manly Old Boys at the game and brilliant to see Matty Ballin back where he belongs.
