I loved how they were getting angry and frustrated at us for parking the bus and going hardcore defence in the first half - 'you are playing like Chelsea' - it worked (for a while ...). Not to mention we scored twice and had a couple of other good chances that half.
Right, so that's 2 games in a row we have conceded 3 goals in the last 20. Fitness of course is an issue, but its the drop in intensity in that period that is killing us. But there is a lot to take from that game - the first half was great, we scored more against Wests than any team this season, and next time we won't be thinking these guys are going to kill us. We should be feeling much better than we were this time last week.
We need to get the match report thing going again - Paul, unfortunately you picked up the pony this week, so a few sage words from you may need to be in order.
Pony: Paul
Other contenders: Tangihaere and the nets, Paddy showing up to watch after the game, Aaron chopping everything in sight
Stallion: Rauru - for that second goal - I think you might have to explain the celebration for us all ...
MVPs:
3 - Lloyd - huge game, everywhere , at the heart of everything.
2 - Spencer - again Mr Consistency (that's 3 weeks of mvp points in a row)
1 - Rauru
