I am still struggling to get my head around how this team can play 7-8 weeks of utter sh1te and look like a basketcase so badly.

Next thing we see is against the reigning premiers, once again, play like a totally incompetent busted butthole in the first half and then magically transform into near worldbeaters in the second half and nearly pinch it from them.

What did they drink, smoke or inject in the rooms at halftime ??

What pixie dust did they have sprinkled on them ??

What did Voss do or say that completely changed their mindset and application so dramatically ??

The other big question now has to be, was this a one off 'flash in the pan' or will the raised standards continue for the remainder of the season ??


Not wanting to be a wet blanket but... Or to what degree did Brisvegas ease up, even just a little?
Probably part of it although sides don't ease up that much to allow a side to get within 10 pts with a few minutes to go either. When the margin comes down too much they usually pick up again very quickly.

We play have games to show we have talent, then play have a game with pur pressure rating between 130-150.
