The final 3 minutes of the game. Goal line defence. Working hard for the bloke next to you. You could see how much it meant to them to keep the opposition scoreless.
It's just amazing how much buying into the what the coach is trying to do benefits a football team.
We had a talented team last year but it was painfully obvious they couldn't give a rats about playing for Smithy.
And it's not just in our sport too. Look at what the Wanderers have done with a team put together from nothing only months before the season. Look at what the Brumbies, a team of no name kids, have done under Jake White.
I'm bloody glad the Roosters obviously respect and work hard for each other and for Robinson.
There are going to be blips like last week with a new and still developing (and young) team but boy, when we're on we're going to take some stopping.
Has anybody else noticed that, since Round 1, we have played 10 halves of footy, and in only 2 of those halves (2nd half v Warriors, 2nd half v Raiders) have we conceded any points? That is a disturbingly good run. If only we had held out Croker last week...
It sure is a good run Mack and a sign of an attitude that has been missing for quite some time.
I trust TR knows to keep this win in perspective in the knowledge that the 'dogs have had a less than ideal preparation and are not at their best.

A good coach creates that attitude.
Amazing how this was never achieved in 2009 with a few of the same players. We never scored much at all in the second halves of games that year, let alone kept the opposition scoreless.

I love seeing how hard the boys are working defending our own line. It's all about attitude which we all know, has been missing from our club for years.

Why do we say "goal line" defence? Isn't it the try line?

Yep Tom. You would be right. Too much following Liverpool in the EPL for me.
Try line or goal line, there was no way the Dogs were getting thru.
