Match Analysis - the crucial points

Posted by sixtiesboy on May 16, 2015 at 5:15pm

Let's make this quick:* first half completion rate was poor* missed Opportunities - Semi was at fault a couple of times* refereeing - forward passes, the missed strip on Mannah - inexcusable!* Kelly's goal kickingOn a positive note, our forwards played aggressively and deserved a better result. Nathan Peats was the standout in the pack. The result was heartbreaking but I can't fault the effort.

  Mate I'm sorry but there is nothing wrong with BAs coaching! The guys go out with a game plan given to them by BA, all BA can do it cross his fingers and hope the boys stick to it!

The mannah call was diabolical but so was Kelly's goal kicking.

  It was a loose carry. No ones fault but Mannahs. Just because the opposition had the ball wrapped up and ended up with it doesn't mean he made an attempt to strip it.

Peats needs to stay at hooker for the full 80.

I was happy with the effort today too. But our coaching looks like a 17 yr old boy fumbling with his zipper at a drive in movie.we just look and feel like a loss before we even kick off. I don't no what the answer is but surely we can be better then this............

Put the unicorn away, NZ were crap and Parra were not good enough to put them away. Hello wake up !!!!
I like your analysis usually but please call a spade a spade!!!!
At home with a weakened opposition and they could not finish the game with a try more and two more subs????
That's the problem with parra for years now, everyone is happy with a loss, FFS why?

Parra just confused us in this game, because they again played only for one half but this time it was the second half! They were coming home strong but, with the game on the line, became a bit of a rabble in attack. When all is said and done, the Warriors got themselves into scoring position three times in that golden point first 5 mins and we went nowhere. We lack the finish to finish. Spoon on the way I fear.

Also love to ask video ref what he would have called if ref had given no try. I would also like the sats on the team given the most no try's by the ref
