And another thing....Bird may be the answer to our woeful kicking problem. He had the smarts and the vision to see Holmes score that try and then put the ball where it should go.
When he has a few more games under his belt he will have even more confidence to try some clever kicks.
Could we finally have an attacking team now that we have confidence from our first win?
I think we will still be a grind it out team at the core but our youthful talent will at least get us some points on the scoreboard to defend in the later stages of the games, plus we won't be bored to death watching the game
so a funny story, a mate of mine was in the city last night and saw mitch pearce blind
he told him to have some water and prepare for the game
pearce told him to **** off as its only the Sharks
its in my FB page, check it out
lol this validates 2 things for me.
1st that the Roosters were complacent despite roosters players comments in the media in the days before the game suggesting otherwise.
Secondarily that my impression of Pearce at the pre-game interview was that he was a bit dusty. After watching him play I was thinking, yep that boy is probably hung over (not that a shocker is beyond him naturally)
I had the same thoughts about Maloney, the guy looked like a zombie all game. Would not be surprised if he swung back a few bottles the night before
