27K on a Thursday night isn't too bad for a Sydney audience.
Sensational effort from Melbourne, sensational.
I only caught the last 15 minutes and must admit the game was a little sloppy so I'll have to catch it on replay, but to comeback from 20 points down against a team like Manly minus your champion halfback is nothing short of extraordinary.
Couldn't believe Manly blew that golden opportunity in extra-time. They had Melbourne dead to rights and DCE throws one of the worst passes of his young career. You wouldn't dream of it, but DCE got caught going through the motions instead of what was in-front of him. Those championship instincts betrayed him tonight.
