Pulled in those short kicks nicely now!
yes that was the most pleasing aspect getting the weight right on those. big difference between a repeat set and giving the opposition a 7 tackle restart
he really kept the pressure on Manly this way and did everything at pace
he also threw alot more short passes off the ruck to a charging forward which is something we talked about during the week. there was alot of this in the first half, looked like a coaching/gameplan thing and it was effective - not just at generating go forward but giving our attack a different shape and less predictable than spreading it wide straight away or throwing the inside ball for a settler
was good to see us change things up and try something else
very good game from Blayke, played a massive role in that win
