More negatives than positives out of that game.
17th placed side...and we struggled to put them away.
There just seems to be this attitude at the moment that we really just have to turn up.
There is not a ruthlessness about our side.
Applying pressure can't be a part-time occupation.
It has to be full-on, intense and sustained.
You look at that performance and compare it to some of our games at the end of last year and it's chalk and cheese.
It's not a case of not being capable
It's an attitude thing.
I think if we were facing a Sydney or Brisbane it would be a different story.
We know it would be a big task and be ready.
But things can go pear shaped pretty quickly with a half-assed attitude.
Lazy habits can become entrenched...
A couple of injuries and we're back to the pack.
The frustrating thing is that we all know the talent is there.
It shouldn't be a chore to get it done.
(and yes...I do know we won...and I'm happy about that aspect
;D .)
