The SP PNG Hunters will be working on the errors identified during the match against the Tweed Heads Seagulls on Sunday.
After their arrival yesterday (Aug 13), Coach Michael Marum spoke to the media saying, the team started off weak and finished on the same footing in New South Wales.
Though he was pleased with the team’s performance at the Piggabeen Sports Complex, Coach Marum was not one to mince words, as he said the team will be focusing on these minor hiccups as they prepare to meet the Wynnum Manly Seagulls this weekend.
“You know the game against the Magpies (round 21), our defense was really good. But just last weekend, two soft tries to start off and then those two tries at the end,” he stated.
“We completed 81 percent of our football. We just need to be really smart with our football.”
Coach Michael further said the team will also be working on their kicking game as some of their kicks resulted in penalty restarts.
“I’ll have to speak to the halves, hookers about it so they can get smart about finishing off our good sets.”
The Hunters have maintained their 6th-spot, but this time with 26 points to their name.
