Chains of errors is the only chain we can manage at the moment. I am under no illusion that Brisbane are a top side, but I just expect better execution than that from senior players (who are supposed to help groom the kids). If I had the time and the stomach for it, I would watch the game again and catalog the errors.
You'll need a lot of pen/pencils to catalogue the errors.
It is said that you play how you train. I recall vividly how hard we'd 'drill' in the military (Navy). And how you'd have your ring gear hanging out after every physical session, that's where incredible pressure was applied... soon sorted the hackers from the non-hackers but we were equipped to handle any pressure in 'combat.' The camaraderie & trust that developed created an 'us'. We hurt together and that builds something special. Above the shoulders 'drills' were every bit as demanding, until they became reflex.
Only our ruthless best, from Board to bootstudders will get us no. 17
