Just on the Gibbo kick down the line, Teague explained in the presser that the get out kick is down the line, go for the boundary line via a punch (if it cant be marked), a throw in ensues and a reset can occur. That's all well and good, Gibbo followed the rules. Sometimes though, you got to think it through and determine if another strategy is required. Port just kept cutting it off our attacks and sending it back inside 50, they just kept missing (fortunately for us). That's why at that point, it needed another tactic and I think Doc should have taken charge. Anyway, no point flogging a dead horse, it's done now, they will review it hard and hopefully can execute better next time and get the chocolates.
