Smooth Attack

[maxta]

Manly are a machine in attack
Rolling through the middle and selectively shifting right or left after winning that middle 3rd
Every player seems to know their role and the support is always close and available
Another massive change since early rounds is depth, players are hitting the ball at full speed adding more options and Keeping the defence in 2 minds all day....scary thing is - only getting better every game

That’s what is good we can score on both sides. I was watching the panthers play the other night and they only ever went left.

The Riff can score both sides easily. Remember their half back was missing.

Remember how well Manly went when Funa was 5/8th.

What worries me is that Tommy is the part of our attach that matters. Him being that quick link ball is so important. Only one that showed similar skills was Harper being the out wide link. Difference was Harper didn't back up, Tommy is always there.

We remove Tommy from our team and our entire game has to change

Exactly mate - when the Kikau edge is shut down they seem to struggle...no Cleary is a Massive out, but that left edge is their Golden shift

Well sure but why would we remove Tommy? Oh, you mean... we don't talk about that.

Like against the Cowboys?

Looks pretty good so far, I thought the crossfield kicks are great too but some will get punished. The kick at half time could've got picked off by a better winger which would've resulted in points against us. Can always work on execution but good so far.

I just want them to be able to deliver against the best in the comp

Gotta love Sipley. He is the type of character every club needs. Love his try celebration and when he is on the bench when Manly score and the camera pan over to him and he is just loving it lol
