00:00 I saw how they were able to kick Chase well and make him kick from their own half which
00:05 I think we did a pretty good job at overall.
00:07 I'm particularly pleased with a lot of the young kids, how they defended at the back
00:11 end of that game when the game was on the line and there was a lot of pressure in that
00:15 game and we had a 21-year-old and two 18, 19-year-olds defending on the end of the line
00:23 and coming up with important plays.
00:25 So I thought defensively and overall energy I thought was good today.
00:31 Would have preferred a bit better execution of some of our stuff at times to apply a bit
00:37 more pressure at the end of our sets but overall came to do a job against a very spirited and
00:44 energetic team today and we got what we needed.
00:48 Two points were the key thing I guess, got what you needed as you said there.
00:52 Defense lacking some polish, would that be fair to say on attack particularly?
00:58 Yeah I thought we created a lot of opportunities and a lot of momentum but we didn't execute
01:04 on the back of that, lacked a bit of patience at times and a bit of precision but it's difficult
01:09 sometimes to attack against scrambling defence that's not in its regular structure but I
01:16 thought we definitely lacked some precision at the end of things but created more than
01:22 enough opportunities today.
