Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Storm

[Lydon]

Watching Melbourne last night,they are always switched on and ready to play..

Irrespective of players missing or not,they seem to always turn up for the hard slog..

Roosters on the other hand,don’t seem to have the same aura unfortunately..

suaalii been charged for the raised knee. wasn't much in it but there were at least a couple in the game from him. he doesn't have much longer in league for the time being and he's a big chance to miss what few games he has left from suspension. needs to fix it now

Jesus.

Just what we need. No doubt he'll cop a suspension.

At least he can rectify those glaring knee problems in rugby yawnion.

Side Note: Am I the only one who wants to somewhat harm Dan Ginnane when he yells "Goodbye" during a game?

The berk should be calling fake wrestling not competitive sport.

Something needs to change at the roosters. The same problem of not being able to beat the top two teams keeps returning so we must make changes to meet these challenges not continue the way we are going. Whether it’s a change in assistant coach or coach or players all cards should be on the table because the problem is not going away. And we can’t just wish it away. Changes need to be made to rectify the fact we can’t beat top teams.

Suaalii should be playing right centre against Manly on Sat, to cover Dom for bomb catching, if we're super dedicated to winning this game.
...until Dom is totally competent doing it.

They've been doing it for 20 years.
Youve got to give them credit.

One solution is to buy better players...we should've bought Crichton from Panthers.
Club tried to buy Fifita, but he changed his mind.
Brooks just dummied and sidestepped him and ran thru to score.
Our team is too small.

No, you're not the only one.

Ginnane is the worst commentator I have ever had the misfortune to listen to. EVER!

That stupid grin on his face when he appears on screen is reminiscent of someone who can't believe he's duped so many people and is trying in vain to conceal it. It's begging to be wiped off with a swinging arm to the melon.

God, I can't stand that guy. It feels like every Easts match is reffed by KKKlein and commentated by Ginnane.

Shits me to tears.

Fish rots from the head time for Nick to move on

The team that buys no players is leading the comp & is clear from any other team by 6 points

Chook
They play like nervous kittens against the top teams.
Nil composure, trying to score off the 3rd tackle, poor execution etc....they not willing to play the arm wrestle like the Riff and Storm. Pressure has to be endured and tries are earnt off the back of it.

Maybe you should move on too.
