Billy Smith likely to miss opening game with a hip injury

[Batemans Bay Rooster]

Geez you really must lower the IQ of Batemans Bay every time you open your mouth you knob jockey.

I don't death ride the team I've followed & loved my whole life you goose.

What's so hard in understanding the bloke can barely make it through training let alone a game?

Also its pretty obvious this team isn't a serious contender this year.

Where you see rainbows & unicorns i dont & I'll voice it.

Is that OK with you you over reacting tool?

You're such an obvious death rider, it's sickening. You're the illegitimate spawn of Les Misérables. You're in poor Terrell May's corner instead of the club's. You despise our winningest ever coach. You simply don't want Billy Smith to do well. If you did, you wouldn't just bang on about he can't make it through a game. Everyone knows he's had a bad run with injuries, thanks Sherlock. You'd be hopeful, optimistic, positive. But you're the polar opposite.

And you're the worst sort of fraudulent death rider - the one who when challenged, pretends not to be, and backs away. Own your death riding, instead of having a bet each way.

I don't think the internet is for you if words on a page get to you that much.

Virtually the vast majority apart from you thinks the May situation wasnt handled badly.

You can't even tell the difference between criticism & despising someone/something.

My opinion of Billy will change if he can finally get through trainings & games in consecutive weeks & my feelings on Robbo will change if he can change & adapt & become relevant again & not look like he's too comfy & out of idea's.

Least i put myself out there with my opinions & dont pretend everything is great or sit on the boring old fence.

Lets give it a few weeks into the season & see who's talking s##t.

No I'm just me.

Fair dinkum , wasn't having the best day at work then have to read that rubbish.

Fancy having a different opinion on a public forum.

There just words in the end which shouldn't do damage like sticks & stones do.

Hahaha, hope it gets better , don't let tools get to you

death ride, gibber, gibber, each way bet, each way bet, gibber, gibber, death ride.

"Virtually the vast majority apart from you thinks the May situation wasnt handled badly."

I tried to read that a few times. What? Gibber. But it's good that you have a direct line to the opinions of "virtually the vast majority."

One thing I would say about Les Miserables, he was 10 times the writer you are.

Ohhh Basketcase Bay you cut deep.

You yourself are such an eloquent wordsmith.

You must of graduated dux of Basketcase High School.

Head up bum, gibber gibber, lets support for just the sake of supporting..gibber gibber. live in the past, gibber gibber

Back on topic, can you imagine these two marking staggs and cobbo in round 1? They have 1 first grade game between them. And young coming in off his wing won’t help either. Lucky Chad Townsend is a good defe…Jesus I’m worried.

Ahh Ahh Ahh none of that worried negative talk thanks.

You'll have Basketcase Bay onto you pronto.

You must support & not find fault with 1 first grade game in experience against Staggs & Cobbo.

You death rider.

We finished 3rd in season 2024.
Not even coach of the year Bellamy could win the comp in 2024.
Coach Robbo would have a much better chance of winning another comp if many of his best players would stop leaving every year.

[HunchoRooster]

I don't really wish to get involved or take sides but one thing I'll say.

Calling anybody that is constructively critical of the club a "death rider" or a fairweather fan is a myopic and lazy argument that has no substance.

Why the farrk would someone who doesn't actively support the Roosters take time out of their day to articulate their concerns about the club on a footy forum? Conversely, why the farrk do people react with such vitriol when differing opinions are offered on a footy forum, which is the literal intended purpose of a forum.

If one is comfortable in their level of commitment as a Roosters fan, they don't need to call others out on theirs.
