Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Tigers

[Sentimentinel]

Found it interesting to see Lindsay shoving him back into the line up prior to JWH getting binned. Must have been Jared his ‘pull your head in’ orders.

Happy to see Collins taking on that leadership role in the forwards though, will do us wonders moving into the future.

I did notice Collins was coralling other players a bit during the game.

Definite Captain material going forward post Tedesco.

We started poor again like last week, the disruption to Manu and the odd hia didn't help.

Maybe an eye on next week? Hopefully we don't lose too many players but they'll want to start better in any case.

One swallow dosent make a summer but I'd almost make Suaalii 2nd choice fullback over Manu these days, I feel like Joey is having having a lot of leg issues and still has that tendency to drift across field, away from contact yet Suaalii takes it head on which I prefer.

Either way as mentioned, we are lucky to have good quality replacements for teddy.

[Vasco]

If JWH or Egan anre out I hope Whyte gets a run.

You'd think JWH is odds on to cop a suspension. He's due.

A good afternoon/evening overall for the Sydney Roosters with a combined 80 to 18 score line against the Wests Tigers

• NRLW - Sydney Roosters 48 - Wests Tigers 10
• NRL - Sydney Roosters 32 - Wests Tigers 8

Great day for the club King. The thought actually crossed my mind about the odds of us scoring 100 points across the two games. Came up 20 short anyway.

Yes a great day JFC - I do like the all Navy Blue the NRLW side wear - Hopefully Shawden Burton's injury isn't as bad as reported.

A bit surprised that Mia Wood wasn't picked up by another NRLW club as she was very good for North Sydney Bears in the Women's NSW Premiership

Brydie Parker put a good word in for her with Coach Strange to sign her when Tavarna Papalii's ACL injury ruled her out for season - Although Tavarna played lock in Tarsha Gale Cup

[Waylander]

That makes 144-20 in our last 3 games against the Tigers.

Wow Reece Walsh just said on Fox that they played great Broncos Footy.

Defo agree with the captain comment.

I reckon Teddy has been underwhelming in that role.

A smart and respected forward is what you need

Jared didn't hit the guy high, and was only marginally late, should be penalty sufficient.

Agree mate. Collins is captain material!

Suaalii stood up tonight and did a great job at the back. I watched him off the ball and his positioning was spot on. He also has the motor required to play fullback

I think we cop the bums rush anyway being the Roosters in that regard.

If the Australian and NSW captain can't command respect from the officials and especially the temperament that teddy has then would Collins do better being a more intimidating forward?

Maybe you're onto something.

I wish we could play the current Broncos Footy.

[Eggspert]

Jared didn't hit the guy high, and was only marginally late, should be penalty sufficient.

He's definitely gone.

It was high, late & definitely very dumb from him.

Dumbness like that from a key player with the game wrapped up & with the season on the line next week can't be defended.

Dumb dumb dumb.

Coach Robinson and I disagree with you
Robinson said if it was anyone else it would have been penalty only.

[mightyrooster]

That’s not the point I’m making and I’m sure you know that.

[HunchoRooster]

You are entitled to your opinion, nothing personal.
You don’t rate our coach. I have to agree he could have made better decisions this year but a lot went against us.
I’m sure you are hoping for us to go deep into the finals like the rest of us. Just don’t let your hate bind you.

Nothing personal either mate. I don't hate our coach, he is just very frustrating at times.

I have rated him in the past and hope he can prove me wrong and rekindle some magic. Won't be this year though I don't think.
