Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Manly

[Rooster36]

Is that 142 for toops? He's streaking away on the leaderboard.

On the top level of roosters legends !!! Never been paid what he worth but he is a rooster

[Sentimentinel]

Love me some Billy Smith too, keary better than last week

[Rocky Rhodes]

Toops is a machine.....best and most consistent player for the last 11 or so yrs.

Sad and worrying times in 2025 with no Toops, JWH and maybe Keary.

Meanwhile we are winning 18-2 Some people just don’t want to be happy

[Jacks Fur Coat]

In control dare I say it. Everyone contributing and good defence with numbers and solid first contact. Wong looks a talent. Even Hutch has played quite well so far.

Hate these mega penalty and 6 again games, still what can you do.

[Lydon]

Does Radley ever take responsibility for his mistakes?

I mean he turns around and has a go at Sandon Smith for a pass he really should’ve taken..

Gee he irks me at times

[player 1]

Klein gave Manly 12 penalties/six agains in 40 minutes.

We heroically toughed it out defensively and came up with 3 tries to nil.

What will Klein/The bunker come up with to turn this around?

Was a shocking pass, at a middle who had just played 35 minutes straight.

He wouldve got exactly the same look from every middle in the game.

[QWERTY]

1st half 18-2 up is good. Probably should have gotten more tries but I can complain really. Time to put the hammer down!!!

[ARD]

Outstanding from Collins and JWH

[Ray Stehr]

Is 18-2 a big enough lead???? Our 2nd halves are atrocious. If Manly scores first in the 2nd half, look out. My confidence in this team is almost non existent. Manly are crud so we might be able to scrape the win.

Smith has had a better 2 weeks.

Keary looks better with Hutchinson doing all the organising but it still just doesn't look smooth though does it?

Yeah that wasnt Vic's fault.

They need to sin bin a manly player, they're just slowing the ruck down deluxe

Totally, we got the sin bin threat early in the game. Then Manly repeatedly slowing it down blatantly at end of half - but no talk of sin bin.

Klein is an undoubted cheating cnut who has a pathological hatred for us.

Poor discipline from us.
