I know the commentators have praised this as high quality, but I think it's been fairly poorly. They're running hard, no doubt and trying hard but theres a shitload of errors and mistiming in it all.
If Roosters had any go forward at all they could've demonstrated some quality. Instead the entire game was them defending against Manly who aren't good enough.
well why on earth does 1st then have to play 3rd rather than 4th like they have earned and already beaten?
No other way to do it unless they add an extra week and do it similar to soccer with 1v2 playing next week as well.
