I just found it frustrating that they didn't attempt a drop goal when they had the opportunity. If it misses fair enough, but at least have a pop. Whether it is Myler who takes it or not, just have a go when you are in such a good position. Even Dwyer managed one a couple of seasons back.
In fairness Dwyer was extremely lucky it was a ridiculous play.
That sums up why Myler has never been good as the main playmaker. Any halfback worth their salt should take control, get the ball to the middle and have a crack at a drop goal.

Agreed. Even if Myler doesn't take the drop goal himself, at least guide the forwards into position to give someone else the best opportunity.

Norm: A little early, isn't it Woody?
Woody: For a beer?
Norm: No, for stupid questions.

But the teams been criticised all season for not showing effort in for the whole game or not showing effort at all. This game was full of effort and the reason it’s been praised
