LIVE GAME Round 3 vs Dolphins

Live Game Discussion
The big positive is that I think our team’s excitement levels will be off the charts after the good win last week.
The negative is we will almost certainly be on the wrong end of sone dodgy home town calls surrounding set restarts and penalties against us, so our resilience levels will need to be very high to help overcome it.
We need to at least finish very close to even in the yardage battle to allow our class players the freedom to express themselves, so defensive line speed/dominant defending and post contact metres gained will be crucial.
Our edge back rowers ideally need to improve on last week and our centres need to be strong defensively and show their strong attacking game from last week was not a one off.
 
First contact in the first 10-15 minutes of the Eels game concerned me. There was no control of the ruck and advantage line. Not likely to get away with that against a team with some strike.

Dolphins will go hard at the edges early.
 
Not expecting a win today. Think it will be similar to the knights game, their backs make me nervous. Would love to see the defensive resolve continue
