    I was waiting for the game at 1 pm like everyone else so obviously missed it. What was the set piece like Gerry, any improvement.

    Wests Scarborough 1st Grade juggernaut has played finals rugby each and every year since its inception and continues this remarkable feat yet again this season and unbelievably it's still rolling on and as an added little circle jerk for the masses Wests actually hold the record for the current longest unbroken finals record.

    We seemed to get penalised a lot from the scrum, line out were good

    Thought we were unlucky with a lot of those scrum penalties. Looked like their THP prop hinging, and at least one where I'm sure we shoved them back a meter or two before the wheel.

    Scrums were better by the Spirit though we still conceded a few too many penalties from front row silly buggers by both teams. The ref pinged us early and continued to ping us even when we weren't at fault. We created a lot of good linebreaks just keep knocking on the final pass or trying to push a pass that wasn't needed. Lacked a little bit of cohesion early between Ruru and Lance but it got better as the game went on. We got a bit lazy in our inside defenders pushing up to help the outside line speed which NSW Country took advantage of. Apart from his 2 try involvements Kyle went missing for a long period.
    Just a fraction off on our execution, left a couple tries out there.

    Who did the Ruck Work against the NSW Country Eagles?

    Remember:
    1. Early means 1st or 2nd of player’s team AFTER the ball carrier has been tackled and brought to ground.
    2. Impact means active engagement: strong physical contact, changed shape of ruck, clean-out, protecting ball etc. (more than hand on someone’s bum or arriving after the hard work has been done). Yes it’s subjective - but as I collect all data at least it’s consistent.
    3. Impact DOES NOT equate to Effectiveness. I’ve concluded that coming up with an effectiveness measure is just too hard in the time that I have available – but open to suggestions.

    Comments:
    1. Good involvement from Stringer and Mulikihaamea with strong support for Spirit ball carriers.
    2. Stringer and bench players had big last 10 mins.
    3. Pleasing return to form for McCalman. I counted 3 TOW.
    4. Hadleigh May was having strong involvements until he came off at 32 mins. with what appeared to be a knee injury. 1 TOW. His efforts were missed.
    5. Fantastic to have 2 Hookers, Tessman & Scoble, so involved around the park.
    6. The Spirit stood off 40% of the Eagle's rucks - maintaining a strong defensive line.
    7. Best efforts by Backs: Brache - 17T (14A/3D); Matuauto - 14T (10A/4D); Eden - 11T (8A/3D)
    8. Too many handling errors by the Spirit counted in the end.

    Is Mulikihaemea likely to be offered an extended squad spot on his games for the Spirit this year?
