Sydney dominated the whole game, but the guys managed to stay in touch for the entire time. Realistically, they should have won by a fair bit more than they did.
You're right.
Sydney are a well drilled team too. They forced us wide or into a stoppage and flooded massively (God I hate floods). Why did they press everyone forward while we hung back with 2-3? Fast breaks were fumbled or shut down wide.
Mora and Fyfe have dropped away a bit - can't hold it against them.
I don't know what more the team we fronted with could have done actually. Obviously there were a couple of turn-overs here and there, but we just barely created the opportunities forward.
The fumbling maul in the centre is something we have to develop a strategy against. The ball came down, the ground contest was on and more often Sydney cleared it their way.
