Roosters 2025 Season Lineup

[Lydon]

Surely David Fifita wasn’t our only option for next year,with money to spend I can’t understand why we have no urgency in signing any players.

Apparently Uncle Nick mentioned last week that we won’t be making any major signings for next year.

It just makes no sense,especially when everyone can see that we will possibly struggle to make the 8 after losing so many stars..

It’s a good thing for Robbo,after losing so much talent he will have no pressure to perform with a gun side like previous years..

Maybe that’s part of the thinking..

[The Lip]

Loved SST when he was with us but surely he's not worth 500k these days. From memory he became a bit injury prone in his last year with us?

Fletcher Baker?
Big, strong, young. tall.
96% tackle efficiency rating.

You've got to be joking, he's a 2nd grader.

[Mickie Lane]

Rather a coach must be found to ensure that doesn't happen.

You dont need some article in the paper to tell you what 2025 will bring.

New exciting young blood will be offset by someone who:s been there too long, has no fresh Ideas & is way behind Bellamy & Cleary in the coaching pecking order.

Like who?

[Mickie Lane]

God only knows how they’re going to get Ponga to break his contract.

He’s our man for sure.

How would you feel if say Souths were trying to get one of our best players to break his contract to go there.
Its a sh!t go trying to get the best player from another team to break his contract.

Do they loose talent and or experience

Be hard pressed to get another NRL season out of JWH and Keary

Suaalii , Manu and Sitili - had their many critics on here - a number not fussed about their departure.

JWH Replacements - Va'a Brothers and more game time for May/Whyte and Leniu

Keary - Sandon Smith

Suaalii/Manu - Billy Smith / Toia / Young / Nawaqanitawase

Sitili - Wong / Steep/ Egan Butcher

[Mickie Lane]

Melbourne are absolute specials next season. They lose nobody while Penrith lose a few again. I reckon Melbourne go back-to-back.

We will slip, Bulldogs will rise and South’s will too.

Next year’s top 4 will be Storm, Panthers, Bulldogs and Sharks.

Cant wait

No players are really available right now except older players who would fill a role for a season or less. The only player that looks like he might become available and would be an upgrade on what we already have is Addo-Carr but I don't see that one happening especially with Toops being a club legend who hasn't exactly done anything wrong to lose his spot.

I might be biased but I think we'll crack the 8 next year, we still have a lot of world class players and our roster is still a top 8 roster, the only concerning thing is how we start the year as a Round 1 spine of Teddy, S. Smith, Townsend and Watson isn't particularly exciting. Tedesco, S. Smith, Walker and B. Smith looks a lot better though...

If Melbourne were losing 5 players of the value we are losing & replacing them with the players you have named they would still be a top 3 side.

TAB 2025 BETTING MARKET


$4 Melbourne
$4.50 Penrith
$11 Bulldogs
$12 Roosters
$13 Cronulla, Cowboys
$15 Manly
$17 Brisbane
$21 Souths
$26 Newcastle, Warriors
$34 Canberra, Dolphins, Gold Coast, Parramatta, St George Illawarra
$41 Wests Tigers

Imo Tigers wont be spooners, Dogs will go good maybe top 5, Parra should be better and Chookies at least can hide in the shadows and surprise with a better finals campaign.

Still think we'll have some new blood from other clubs.....maybe 2. Mongrel in the forwards is something we are gonna need to rev up the chaps......just saying.

This is one kid that is quick, can catch, kick and is strong.

Really looking forward to him being an important part of the side.

Storm coach finished first in regular season.
Panthers coach finished second.
Roosters coach finished third, despite "circus music and streamers" refereeing, not the "rose coloured glasses" refereeing of "teachers pet" teams.

Replace Roosters coach?
With one of the coaches who finished 4th to 17th?

Kevvie and JD are looking for a job.

If you think the Storm will miss the 8 next year then you are kidding yourself.
