Haven't had a chance to write my thoughts just yet on the game.
Obviously first half was brilliant, haven't seen a half of football like that for some time and also haven't seen a performance from an individual player like that for some time as well.
Second half was totally abysmal. I don't care about 5 day turnarounds (Manly had one too) or the refereeing issues (I actually think there wasn't any), or the wind against us, a good team overcomes these things.
Poor ends to sets, poor defence, ill discipline and probably a subconscious thought that the game was over led to that second half performance. I was surprised to hear Fitz being overly positive about it all in the presser, thought he may have been a bit more cranky. Hopefully he'll address it this week.
