A win for the true believers, and egg on the face of the perpetually negative fans

[BTRD]

What a FANTASTIC win.

[HunchoRooster]

Let's celebrate the Roosters amazing gutsy performance instead of trying to get reactions from fellow Roosters fans on a forum.

There were negatives from the game but the guts and passion shown counters them out. Need to be a LOT better to have any chance next week but let's enjoy the night and the win before we worry about that.

Very proud to have been out there with lots of family members and very proud that at no stage, even under the circumstance did any of us lose hope of winning. All the points scored in front of where we sat and watching that field goal sale over was brilliant Top night out and sitting in my Bros car coming home now Up the Roosters

Does Wong remind anyone else of Anthony Tupou?

He looks like Bryan Fletcher to me.

One of the Bravest and tenacious games in the last 10 years. I still can’t believe how we managed to win it. We looked gone at a few stages there

I couldn’t watch anymore when Teddy got binned. Then I had a peek and it was 12-6. So I just watched resigned to the loss until Wong scored then Billy Smith taking the kick? Oh no again. But Sammy the champ hitting over that FG left me stunned. The charge downs! Unbelievable stuff. No one, not the top teams have such spirit. To me we already have won this year. We’ve eliminated two teams and put fear and respect into the rest. I’ve never seen such a gutsy performance in following the roosters since 1966.

Yes a taller version who has similar footwork at the line

For sure, And looking for smart offloads. Nice to have a bit of an X-factor in the forwards again.

What a gutsy win that was. When a team plays like that when everything is going against them, it proves once and for all that the players are tight, the culture is strong and the players are committed to the coach and dare I say it THE ROOSTERS’ WAY!!

I just re-watched that Keary charge-down, it was phenomenal. He sprinted off the line with more determination than you'd think possible. Little champ who knows how to get the job done properly.

Surprised Fitzy basically said that Teddy and Keary were offside. Kez it was hard to see, but Teddy was objectively onside.

One of the most bizarre games I've seen. Shades of that 2010 final against the Tigers. The game tonight was completely unwinnable. We must've been thirty to one to win that game at certain points.

Wong, Rads, Crichton, Collins definitely all deserving their plaudits, but I've got to give a shoutout to Brandon Smith and Terrell May.

May has been an absolute monster, and probably our best forward over the last 3-4 weeks. He is playing big, big minutes and is dominating every hit-up. He has almost kept us in the game the last two weeks.
Brandon Smith absolutely changed the game with his running in the second half too. Massive performance.

The reporters brought it up and tried to bait him into it, there’s not much more he could have said really.

[Ray Stehr]

There is nothing negative you can take out of that.

Robbo has this team humming with never day die attitude.

Guts, heart and passion.

99% of neutral oberservers would tell you at the 55 min mark that we were toast. Gone. No chance.

Not this lot.

This is a win for the true believers. Those who have faith in our great club, and the great characters like Uncle Nick and Robbo who lead it.

Lots of egg on the faces of Ray and his ilk. I'd like to see something positive from them, but not holding my breath.

Moron.

[Steakface]

Moron.

You still aren't happy?

Guess that's prediction correct.
