Few positives out of last nights game for me
Of course the result was gutting and overall it wasn't great but I try to find positives
- Completion rate of 88%, We have done well in this area all year and have the best completion rate of all teams
- 4 line breaks which was equal with the Doggies (We are 3rd in the NRL for Line breaks)
- Average set distance of 41.7m which is pretty good
- Got some second phase happening with 10 offloads (Equal with the Dogs)
- Tackle Efficiency of 89.9%
- Conceded just the 6 penalties
- Herman Ese'ese was huge again (158m, 1 line break, 5 tackle breaks, 41 tackles, 1 try and 0 errors)
- Connor Watson had his best performance for us (162m, 3 line breaks, 9 tackle breaks, 0 errors, 2 tries)
- I thought Cogger tried hard (92m, 1 line break assist, 1 try assist, 17 tackles with just 1 miss, 279 kick metres and 1 forced dropout)
- Mitch Barnett ran hard and pulled off a couple of good shots (122m of which 53m was post contact, 4 offloads, 25 tackles)
- Aidan Guerra was great, Especially in defence (110m of which 46m was post contact, 51 tackles with just 3 misses)
- Sione had an ok game I thought (110m of which 54m was post contact, 10 tackles with just 1 miss)
- Slade Griffin was great before getting injured (1 try assist, 1 line break assist, 20 tackles with 0 misses, 1 offload)
- Defensively Levi (25 tackles, 0 misses), Buhrer (22 tackles and 0 misses), King (26 tackles 2 misses), Sam Stone (31 tackles 2 misses) were all solid
