SQUAD v EELS

[Recky62]

have to ask, are the refs rostered a group of teams ?...cause we always get the axis of evil , either on the field or gumming the game up with technology

[HunchoRooster]

I'd like to see Hutch and Sammy as the halves given the former's recent performances. Rekindle the 2021 miracle run.

It doesn't matter who we field.

The repeated appointment of Klein, a known cheat whose biased officiating against us is well known, reeks of the NRL trying to ensure roosters miss the finals.

His refereeing in our games is not even close to looking impartial. In every single aspect. But he keeps getting control of our games.

Something stinks.

Have we not learned anything on here, Walker and Keary don’t work as a combo. Both have poor long kicking games and both are poor game managers.
You don’t always need a team of superstars, more the right combinations. On paper Walker over Hutch is a no brainer, but the reality is Hutch is a better partners to either Walker or Keary

What about the 8 wins in a row & scoring a stack of points in the process last year?

[QWERTY]

Not sure about Crichton’s selection. Hasn’t been up to it all year (obviously his personal reasons have played a major part) and he’s just come back from another lengthy stint off. Would prefer Brown in the side for this week tbh.

[Mickie Lane]

I wouldn’t drop Hutch he has been the Roosters best for the last 2 weeks.

For sure. I look forward to a 12-5 penalty count. And that includes us getting the last 3 of them just to tidy it up a little.

How many matches reffing Easts will that be for KKKlown this season?

My cup is both half empty and half full.

The engineered competition is designed for a Roosters victory this weekend, particularly after Parra's major form drop.

However, I fear that KKKlown will turn Parra into a team of angels who can do no wrong and will get 12 penalties to our 3, 0 in the bin to our 2, 0 on report to our 3. He'll find constant set restarts for Parra, but give Easts one or two. He'll be blind to Parra's offside play and niggle in the ruck, but will find fault in every aspect of Easts' defence. He'll miss several of their knock ons and forward passes, but will pull up Easts for the slightest bobble of the ball or a borderline pass.

I need to renew my supply of stress balls before this game. The KKKlown will crucify Easts...or will the engineered blockbuster matchup between Easts and Souffs demand that the biggest cheat in NRL officialdom orchestrates a miraculous Rooster victory?

[Waylander]

I actually think Klein will be kinder to us this week. Don't you think the NRL want to see a Roosters v Souths battle in the last round to decide the 8?

You bet they do.

[bondi paul]

I despise Klein, I no longer refer to his nickname I gave him some time ago, Klein the Klown. It’s now Klu Klux Klein.

That is what I'm thinking.

The English women's soccer team was "too big, too strong, too fast", and too "bash em, smash em, trash em" for the Matildas.
One of the Matildas is being blamed for the loss, that is unfair.
The English team was just too good on the night.

If we want to be too good on the night against the Eels, we need to play like the English team did...bash em, smash em, trash em.

[bondi.boy]

Klein?

FFS!

We are the best team, so we get the best referee.
We are the glamour team, so we get the glamour referee.
We have the best playing style, so we get the referee with the best refereeing style.
All good.

Your last 2 posts are so contradictory.
First you say Klein will cane us but then you agree with Waylander that he will be kind to us.
