LIVE GAME Round 14 v Panthers

Live Game Discussion
Benji gave it to the refs in the presser. “That was our best game but the result was taken out of our hands.”… Only one of the examples he used wasn’t the best. He clearly wasn’t aware of the hip drop because he praised the effort of Sorensen… looking back at the sorenson try saver the only way he saves that try is if he loses his legs illegally. Should have been a penalty try.
 
On the Kit decision - we used all 8 interchanges so need to think about which one we would have done differently. We used 3 interchanges bringing Latu on, then off, then on to finish the match. I think that was the right call.

2 more on Sione Fainu and 2 more on May with the final interchange being bird on with seyfarth moving to the edge (Sukkar came back with seyfarth going back to the edge in the second half but that was taking Murray off I believe).

I think the decision really was between Murray or kit around half time or latu or kit in the final 20.

I don’t think that’s where the game was lost really though potentially on reflection kit instead of Murray could’ve helped a bit?
 
Marshall may have had Kit on the bench for him to train with the NRL team and to experience from the bench what it requires to get to NRL level. He may be doing the young man a favour so he can go back to NSW Cup and improve his game especially his impact with the ball.
If that was the case he could have done it from #18 and had a player on the bench that he could utilise to give tired forwards a break.
