"It shows a pretty direct correlation between set restarts & scorelines.
Which is nothing new really:
Possession / field position / points = fatigue / scoreboard pressure / stupid risks / errors for oppositions.

"Need to focus on hanging onto the ball, especially after long periods of being under the pump.
Paulo, your job is to run straight and hard, win the contact before even thinking of an offload....... YOU ARE NOT A BALL PLAYER !

"Daniel Mortimer,
Restarts are worse than penalities as there is no break in the clock, and no time to reset the defensive line, creating a vicious cycle of momentum and fatigue.
Actually, for most of the Storm v Eels game errors were equal.

"Rubbish. Have a look at the lopsideed scores the whole round. Manly had 11 mins straight of possession before Canberra got the ball. The NRL has called for this type of officiating and many teams were not ready for it. If you put teams under…"

"TDS is not first grade level. Do not pick players who are not up to it. Joash is a fullback, do not pick players out of position.Walker is going to have to cover Smith for his rests. Walker is off contract, he will rise to the occasion."
"TolEllts, Great point. Once momentum kept going against us, we just had no answers. We lost our way. The ref was never going to let us win that game, but we could've avoided that huge blowout. And not get bullied as much.

"Iamnot, spot on. Manly get 4-straight restarts. Lead 14-0. Then, Raiders get 5-straight restarts. They come back 14-12. Must be just pure co-incidence it keeps happening...

"HOE - interesting that after blowing the pea out of the whistle for 48 mins (one set restart every 5 mins), there was only one blown in the last 32 minutes of the game. You can't tell me that players all of a sudden became ultra-disciplined. "
"Could easily get rid of the kick for touch option on a penalty. Make it so that the only options are a tap restart or a kick for goal."
"We keep talking about the great Raiders come back after being down early 14-0. You know what helped? Raiders got 5-straight six-agains after the 8th min after Manly's lead. Every restart till fulltime, bar one. Restarts are worse than penalties…"
"Look TDS ain't going anywhere anytime soon, but i think it is more paletable if Joash is that 14 where he can fill in at Hooker for short mins and also play other positions if needed, as opposed to a straight up Hooker. TDS can still be in the 19."

I posted this earlier on Hoe's blog, which was poor placement."Isn't it Ironic, Don'tcha think?

There is no doubt he is a phenomenon. Averages 64, which is second only to the Don. And the most unusual thing about him is the way he bats, which defies modern techniques.
Here is an interesting bit of trivia for you. He has now scored 6 ashes hundreds in England. No England player has ever scored that many in England.
When you take out the first dozen or so tests when he was actually selected as a bowler his average is in the 80 plus area.
Who is he?
LOL
He's definately special. Teams just can't find a way to get him out.
His technique is not in the cricketing books. Neither was Bradman's though.
Watched his whole innings last night/early this morning and his technique and mental fortitude is right outside of the ordinary. Nothing flamboyant about him, just goes on with his business and rarely faiis.
He came into this season having miseed the first 7 months due to suspension and in a few months became the number 1 scoring batsman in the world of test cricket.
FMD, a 7 months handicap given to all test cricketers and he is now starting to blow them all out of the water, and all this after being terribly knocked out in the 2nd test and not playing in the 3rd test.
FMD. Just wow, wow, wow, wowwwwwwwwww.
Exactly Snake. I think Smith is the best batsman we've had since Bradman. Bats outside the box. So skilled, yet eccentric and unothodox.
Didn't expect it when I first saw him play. Looked awkward at first.
I must admit I was a huge fan of the Great West Indian top 3. Greenidge, Hayne, and Viv.
Viv Richards is one of my all time favourite batsman. He was the gum-chewing King Of The Jungle. Never even wore a helmet. Oozed confidence, skill and domination.
No idea who he is , but if he wears New Balance he better stay the fuck away from my kids .
Weak lilly livered piece of SHIT! and now we call him a hero.
No wonder this country is fuct.
There for his own glory and pay packet.
Bit like the NRL putting the wife bashers up as the game's heroes.
