Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Sea Eagles

[Crab]

Well thank **** we won ! Tried our best with more than a little help from the Klown to blow that game . Manly aren't a bad side . We got in front and psychologically thought we've got this . Heart attack material God knows why I follow this team but I love em .ROOSTERS

[BraveTheWorld]

I don't know if I'm being dramatic, but I really feel like that was our worst performance of the year. The lack of game sense in that last 30-minutes was really astounding. I cannot imagine Trent is going to be happy with that.

At least when Manly had possession at the end of the game, you could assume we were safe. We surly had more try assists against ourselves than they did.

I also don't want to be excesive to any specific player, but I've been saying for a long time now: Dom Young is really, really going to cost us against good sides. He makes SKD look like Einstein.

[Ron Burgundy]

Keary please never play for us again
you are the dumbest footballer I’ve seen
suaali please never play for us again and never try and flick pass you incompetent overated guy
That was embarrassing 2nd half and the last 10 min was the worst game management I have seen from Keary and am nrl player

What kind of fan are you

[nayfo]

POO utter POO

[PLV012]

Not enough respect for hard working forwards from low percentage back play options ... D attitude was very good imo for the most part... still need to tidy up the errors!

Take the W. move to #3... be better next outing.

3 interceptions says it all. Should have had it on toast. A long way off the best sides still.

[HunchoRooster]

Teddy seems filthy. Jenko seemed filthy. Hopefully Robbo is filthy.

The only thing that beat Manly was the clock. We cannot be that wasteful and expect to go anywhere in the finals. Not only are we only playing in 20 min patches, we seem to be equally awful for 20min patches.

The positive is that we can get the 2pts playing as wasteful and brain dead as we did.

[HunchoRooster]

Never in doubt - get the 2 points which is the goal - yes improvement can be made but there must be a science behind what teams should do when they obtain such a lead as the Roosters did - 22 -0 after 20 minutes in how to play from then on with 60 odd minutes of the match to go.

30 to 12 after that

Whatever the science is, Robbo and the boys blew the laboratory up trying to figure it out.

[Ron Burgundy]

Geez Jennings absolutely giving it to Young after the game wonder what the hell that was about.

I don’t think he was giving it to him. I think Jennings just animated about the close finish. He was smiling at the end of it

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Hard to believe we nearly through that one away. I can't recall a team giving 3 intercept tries in one half of football.

Positives....our defence in that 2nd half was outstanding. And the first half attack. We can springboard off that brickwall defence, could define our season.

I don't want us to stop chancing our arm, but we need to execute better. Our senior guys have to get it right.

I'm pretty sure I saw the words "What were you doing?". Looked like he was copping a serve to me.

I normally love Cheese's early kicks, but gee they were excessive tonight. He kicked one on the 2nd tackle after we'd defended about 4-sets in a row and we had a 7-tackle set. No clue what he was thinking. In the player interview after, Angus sounded quite pissed about it.

[Chook2]

Someone check Kearys tab account
the game management is the worst I have seen
I really hope robbo fires at the boys in the sheds
discraceful
Spencer said “check your egos”
he knows what it takes to win a premiership

Because young is fkn shyt. Was probably telling him to get a haircut and a real job.

The Cheese kicked twice on the 2nd tackle. Too much coke perhaps?

[Ron Burgundy]

Manly played for intercepts, that’s the kind of side they are and why they won’t be contesting a premiership. It nearly paid off for them but they got lucky.

Very stupid by us to keep feeding them those intercepts but besides that the real difference between the two sides was at least 4 tries. Lots of great goal line defence in the 2nd half, roosters are a very fit side
