9 Fearless Predictions for 2025.

[ism22]

Who will win the comp?
Roosters

Where will we finish on the ladder?
2nd

Who will be our best back?
Mark N

Who will be our best forward?
Whyte

Who will be the 1st coach to get the boot?
Bennett

Who will finish last?
Souffs

Who will be the Chookpens whipping boy?
Ezra Mam

Will Robbo get the axe if we don't make the 8?
No

Will Manu play for the Roosters again?
No. He'll divorce his wife for a J-Pop star, buy a penthouse in Roppongi and become a Japanese socialite. Occasionally he'll grace the rugby field with his presence, where his good looks and ability to score 5 tries a game outta nowhere will draw in major crowds. Sua'ali'i, Wongie and Sitili will join him at some point and they'll be cruisin' around Shibuya most nights singing 'whooo rocks the party that rocks the paaaar-tay', which will be a #1 hit in Japan.

No, but he probably should be.
Yes, mid season SOS.

[Batemans Bay Rooster]

Is it the Madge or Hunt factor or perhaps their gruelling pre season?

You're a betting man. Pick the margin for Round 1 Roosters v Broncos.

Madge.

[Bates]

Madge.

I get it especially after his recent SOO success.

It should be an interesting season! No pressure on us as we're rebuilding.

I wonder if Robbo has some new lines to role out.

No team trains harder than any other team one has to say and a myth to suggest any teams trains harder - Rebuilding is a myth also and not a reality as all teams "refresh" their rosters.

Coach Robinson has a cunning plan and it's just up to the players to implement it - The Youngsters will shine in 2025

Broncos players have stated when interviewed that this is the hardest pre season training they've done. Besides, how the fark would you know? Do you go to all the teams training sessions and monitor their program?

The Bulldogs are improving but they are not in the same league as Melbourne, Penrith, & Broncos they are on the same level as Souths & Cronulla.
They dont have the mongrel up front & have to wait another year before Leo Thompson gets their & their halfback is not in the top echelon of halfbacks. They couldn’t win a game once Kurt Mann got injured in 2024.

I don’t give a fark if they claim it’s the hardest preseason they have had.
For me they have a cracking good coach when he has a cracking good side & the Bronx are a cracking good side & will be there when the whips are cracking if they are all fit.

You wouldn't know either and are just believing the press again- what would you expect them to say- Training has been a doddle ? - you are a chicken little sky is falling and a negative nelly type one has to say.

You hear that same comment from all teams preseason after preseason after preseason - Even Chad Townsend said it's been the hardest preseason he has been involved in- Roosters preseason for season 2025.

As Michael Ennis would say "Noice"

Lots of cracking then - they may crack as well and fall in a heap as Maguire is known for being way too demanding and getting players offside.

Once again you're attempting to hijack and derail another thread so it get's shut down. Go over to the off topic section and start a thread on paper planes, moonshine, taxidermy etc.
