For those that haven't seen it, it is worth watching the press conference from after the game. Merrett joined Scott for it which doesn't normally happen. Was interesting to hear them both talk about process, but I found it more interesting to hear Merrett discussing it. You kind of expect...
Was 23-4 I50 (52 for whole field) but still impressive. Lions did have twice as many as us though. Wonder if we sagged back a bit to avoid being smashed on the rebound. They did kick it straight back to us a lot so not just about the tackles.
I must say that was some mark by Elliott (ie the hanger on McKay). I hate the prick but credit to him. And slotted the shot. Glad he wasnt the match winner (again).
Lucky we didnt sub one of the rucks off at 3/4 time given what happened to Jones. Could have ended up 1 short which would have killed us. Draper and Goldy did compete hard to the end at least.
It's going to be interesting if they only win a couple of games this year, how many want out. They start to see the likes of McKay and Goldy being part of winning teams (even if we only win say 8 for the year will be miles better than Norf), JHF having walked away, Reid having dodged a bullet...
