Was at the game, and I would like to say that Manly played very good for a beaten side, it was only the missed shot at goal plus Travis giving the ref a gobful when the dragoons players would not get up off him that cost us. Our forwards smashed theirs and can hold their heads up. Orford will improve, Bell was quieter than he has been but Matai was a star playing all over Gasnier, Burns has a lot of passion and will learn. We have a lot more improvement in us and besides the finals are in September, we don't want to peak too early and the signs are good. Even Nathan Brown said we are a top 4 side this year.
