Our defensive transition. Probably not something you can see on TV. Matt Suckling - our smartest, best, transition defence runner. He reads the next three kicks and sprints in transition to get there and impact a kick. I can see why he's been in coaches votes.
It sucked we lost. We should've won. But it's not time to throw the baby out...we are a solid, competitive team. It's still a development year, but we've made progress already. Enjoy the ride WOOOFERS.
I agree with you on Suckling, his pace and work rate is underrated.
We should have won, what really disappoints me is that sitting in pretty in third position would have been a really great confidence boost for a developing team. On the flipside seeing how the team regroups after a short break and disappointing effort will be really interesting.
Nobody's looking for a puppeteer in today's wintry economic climate.
