Getting thin in the backs and halves now.

[Roosterfarian]

Still a pretty good line-up. Forwards need to aim up.

Keary is key and needs to bring his second half performance with him.

[kakaruk]

Knights will be hard to beat to many out for us to win this

[Waylander]

Unfortunately, you need a better option if you want to replace him at center, which we don't have if Manu is at #1. Until Billy and/or Rob Toia are available, we have very limited options. I'm not sure if Pauga would be any better at center than Suallii, but that's your only other choice.

My personal preference would have been Jenko & Manu in the centers, with Su at fullback & Pauga wing.

Could happen.

Tuesday side doesn't mean shit and Robbo may pull a little trick and swap Manu and Suaalii before kick-off.

This is what I just alluded to in the other team thread but didn’t think of keeping Joey at 4. This is a much better option but I think Robbo is always going to give Joey first crack at fullback. Both team threads need to be merged.

[Vasco]

Sitili is better off the bench. He can be a handful in the middle third and gets less exposed in defence.

This is going to be a really difficult game. Their crowd will lift them.

[DP1990]

Geez ... our odds are about $4.05 to win this game !

[tloos1999]

Excited to lose 3 on the trot and Trent to talk some nonsense about “getting back to the Roosters DNA” in the presser. No joy in watching this genuine average side anymore.

[RoosterBooster]

The wingers need to stay on their man, Ponga’s favourite play is the double cut out ball to the winger

Keary
Manu
Toops
Radley
JWH
Sualli
Collins

NO FU**EN EXCUSES!

[Teddy]

My god if Ponga had noticed how vulnerable we are out wide he will tear us apart attacking Rugby Joe and Pauga.

I have no idea why Robbo would retain Sitili over E. Butch did he not watch the game last week? Robbo’s selections are just ****ing annoying, I have no confidence in Joe defending in the centres, Taffe burned him off a scrum in soaking wet conditions imagine what Kalyn will do.

Our forwards simply have to win this battle early if we’re any chance of winning.

Hopefully the football gods are good to us.

You aren't the only one frothing at the prospect of starting 5 new threads on Robbo.

FFS mate the argument that the Robbo apologists make that Roosters fans are happy when we lose so we can pile on the team and coach is so off the mark and lame at this point.

I can only speak for myself though. I'd really like to think everyone on here would take a win 100 out of 100 times and don't make threads out of anything but pure frustration, not enjoyment.

FFS

I’ve never made a thread of such nature and have no intentions to ever do so. However I will continue to voice my opinions on the current state of the team as I wish. and as is my right.

If you have a problem with that, seek brighter pastures elsewhere and ignore my replies.

[rcptn]

Could be massive changes come Thursday night.

Sualli

You've changed your tune. You wanted him gone as soon as he signed to Union. And what has he done this year? And last year as well until he was moved to the wing where he belongs?
