WHAT are the main area's to Improve?

[maxta]

After some soul searching and suffering in recent seasons there are plenty of area's to improve in 2019.

Personally I look forward to a stronger mentality....seemed to combust and leak a quick 16-20 points most games and these defensive lapses were every bit as much Attitude as they were technique.
If nothing else in 2019, I want a Manly side that plays with passion and pride...1 thing Des and the old school Manly staff should add, are the elements like guts and determination....with this you are always in the fight....

So what else is needed for a Big season ??

 

[midsteyne]

80 minutes of the maroon wall

 

[Cliffymagic]

Just defence. So often the last few years once a team got into our 20 and spread it wide it was try time. That back pedaling defence on our tryline was ridiculous. Teams scored at will it seems.

 

[Shoe1]

Apostrophes would suit

 

[ricardo]

Outside backs. Kicking game.

 

[Harvies elbow]

And Des is all about D.

 

[Stuey Davis’s Socks]

Warmer pies, colder beers............and a bit of teamwork and grit in defence wouldn’t go astray either

 

[Deleted member 26876]

Defence, defence and defence

 

[Dee Why Eagle]

Preferably a finer source of Coonawarra

 

[redlineg]

And Des is all about D.

And being prepared to take a knock and bleed for each other
Never ever f@%&ing give up.
Something along the lines of your attitude will determine your altitude

 

[Shnorky]

How about trying a real job @ $20 per hour then respecting and appreciating what they have been blessed with

 

[Scorpio]

1. Defense
2. Winning the ruck in attack
3. Attacking like a team that actually has a sound game plan.

 

[ALinda]

Some leadership on the field so, when the chips are down, the captain/vice captain barks to the team not to give up and instills some pride and passion in the jersey.

 

[47MVEagle]

Defence.

Get that right & the rest will follow suit.

We have the attacking power to score points, we just need to stop leaking them.

 

[Eagle thru 'n' thru]

A Manly team that puts fear into 15 other nrl teams plus the winner of superleague.

Rock solid defence that bruises and keeps the other teams scores at a minimum.

 

[MadMarcus]

I’m going to go out on my own here and say something from left field - defence.

I can’t believe none of you guys thought of that.

/end sarcasm

 

[40 years an eagle]

Respect, attitude, desire...in order.
Everything else follows automatically.

Des knows this better than anyone and will cull those who don't get it.

[DUFFMAN]

Biggest improvement has already happened.
Change of coach.

Des will get them defending and mental ready.
