Both teams were slow moving out from the back, especially the Phoenix, disappointed that Elliot hardly created anything... he's usually that one that gives us some forward momentum.
We needed to mark much tighter when they were well in our half making runs to get in behind us... while executing man-to-man marking it's vital to stay on the balls of your feet, so you can move quickly in any direction to stay with the bloke you're marking.
We applied huge pressure on ourselves yet again by sitting on a lead, could've easily lost that match after leading 2 zip... if you don't learn from your mistakes you keep repeating them, we're certainly doing that.
