Their line speed particularly in defence was outstanding and they never gave Catalan any time or space after the first 20-25mins. When we play with that level of intensity we also look a much different team the problem is it only lasts for about 10-15 minutes in a game. I am hoping our line speed is one of the area's that BH has worked on and drilled in to the players especially when defending and we close down the 10M quickly as as the oppostion ptb instead of standing still allowing teams to make easy metres.
It is impressive, but every single player coach know that, that is what wins games, 80 mins of intense rugby, that’s what’s so poor about super league last few seasons, only saints seem to be able to play with that level of intensity most weeks. This game tonight is miles of last nights game. The worst team in the nrl always seems to play with high intensity, just get beat a better opposition, sl teams are often beat by intensity, especially us! Good starting 13 on paper for Sunday, but if we don’t bring some intensity, can see us getting beat
