Just amusing me how many jealous Bulls fans hijack the champions forum, might move onto the Bulls forum now and give them some tips of how to win a home SL game

Fantastic game and despite the 3 try blitz I thought we held our own

We looked all at see when Diskin wasn't on the field and missed our 2 best attackers in Webb and Burrow, I thought we also missed Eastwood/Ellis as Kirke looked well out of his depth (first time in a long time) in the first half.

Even with a full 17 out I think Manly would still be too quick, strong and skillful for us, they would probably just of stepped it up another gear.

Lots of praise for Senior and he did make some good breaks and meters.

However, he does need to remember when to take the tackle. Twice in the second half he passed into touch, and the first one, resulted in the start of the blitz.

Apart from that he looked good against a player that he's had a few good battles with over the years.

Thought that Ali looked great in the last 15. Really made a lot of difference, not just the work for the 2 tries, but also some other testing runs. McClennan needs to get him playing like that more weeks than not, and keep him off the treatment table.

I agree but I think the one that was followed by Manly's three try blitz was the planned short side move from the penalty where Hall's inside ball wasn't taken in by Senior and ended up with Lyon in possession.



Yes if great = a shot to the head that resulted in the conceding of a penalty and your opponent taking no further part in the game due to an illegal high shot.

Good to see Watmough go out of his way to apologise to Burrow at the end of the game though.
