Taking the two

[MarySt]

Honest objective assessment

Taking the two when receiving a penalty in the red zone, just does not fit our style of play.

We're at our best when playing 'adlib footy'. Being conservative and structured is required in defense, but when on the attack we need to loosen up, and honestly in all the time Madge has been here he always makes us take the two, and it never works for us.

We're always criticised for not having a personality as a team, its because we have players that suit a certain style of play, being forced into being conservative and robotic.

let the boys play madge, just let them play

I think it comes back to not backing themselves to be able to score a try, which is fair enough. Our inability to capitalise on chances in attack is embarrassing.

Don't need hindsight to know that call was weak and that is the mindset that causes us to lose games like that.

 

[clokan]

don't think taking the two was an issue, we should have been able to close out the game.

1st one yes ...2nd one no

We'd had the ball for 4 minutes straight by that stage ...score then and you'd probably almost break the Warriors

I never forget that game in our opening season when Penrith tracked us down from 20 + down

One of the Penrith players said ...when they took the FG we knew we had them

When you stop backing your ability to score points .....so you need both ...you need the opposition to think you are ready to take any opportunities that may arrive ...but are mentally tough enough to close it out as well if that opportunity doesn't come

True that

I think it was the right decision..

Tackling would also seems to be a good decision too..but you can't have everything..

 

[JC99]

We are the worst defensive team in the world and we tried to defend a 2 point lead despite having a man advantage. Mind boggling decision

 

[Merlot]
