00:00 There's stages there where obviously we went away from our game plan but that seems always

00:04 happened you sort of start playing a bit of touch woody when it starts to open up a bit like that

00:08 but we kind of thought the same thing last week when we're going into the Gunnedah game and

00:12 they pulled our pants down early, it was like two tries in straight in 10 minutes in and then we only

00:16 sort of won by the two points so we kind of knew that we'll sort of deal with the same things today

00:21 but I was pretty happy with the scoreline in the end. There's times there where we still had to

00:24 defend our line and had our backs on the ropes and we still held them out so pretty happy with

00:28 that effort still. That was one of them things where we know we were sort of heading

00:32 towards that way where we just tried not to lose our shape, lose our structure, lose the things that

00:37 were getting with it was successful for us so we just pretty much just focused on that and I think

00:41 we did that. There were obviously there's stages where we had error, error, error and compound

00:45 error and we can't do that against some of these teams that are going a lot better and I think we

00:49 scored a few tries long range with our Bruce here and I only tried to score in the end but we're

00:53 probably not going to score them tries when we come to the bigger teams, the harder games so

00:56 kind of rely on every line still just running together running their shape and structure and

01:00 sort of grinding out some games.
