I vomited in my mouth when I saw the team. Look at all the extras. None of these anywhere near first graders let alone the two on the bench.

Give Robbo Coach of The Year if he can get this side above Top 15.

And wait till we get an injury and suspension or two.

Watch all the bandwagoners drop off this season. We will be lucky to crack 10k at home after a few loses.

Regardless I’ll be at every game supporting the boys.

Where is Waylander?

[caz]

good to have the footy back. good luck to the boys

[Eggspert]

Where's Billy?

If we cop a few injuries in the early rounds its going to get very bad.

The forward pack seems very small atm.

[Barron's Dream]

My God that is a poor looking squad. I'm hoping for the best but expecting the worst.

[Roosterfarian]

Not one front rower on the bench. Pulverised.

[Eggspert]

That line up will look a whole lot better when the names Sam Walker, Brandon Smith & Spencer Leniu are included....

Was going to mention another Smith but....

The poor moth!

The below is from Waylander posted on February 11 in a Teams Up pre-season team.

On a side note, I will NOT be posting team lists before games this year. I have too many things happening in my life right now to dedicate the time and effort to producing those posts on Tuesday arvo's, so whoever wants to take over the mantle, please be my guest.

Can't wait to watch us play.

GO EASTS !!

[Rooster_Mark]

That squad screams wooden spoon.

[BTRD]

I am not going to be negative.

GO ROOSTERS.

[HunchoRooster]

I like Steep getting a run, good to see he's made the 17.

[Davo]

Another interesting exclusion is the Va'a brothers. D S Va'a was touted as the next JWH coming through, big tall huge kid, but cant make the top 22, instead we named a reject prop from Parra above him. Xavier, the Billy Smith of our forward pack, just cant make it to game day, always injured.... A big kick in the guts for our academy with thoses 2 now not in the frame anymore and overlooked.

[King Salvo]

Might be short of players

15 named in Jersey Flegg
14 named in NSW Cup

Waylander advised that he won't be doing the team lists post this season

[Bondicigar]

Forwards look good and there are points in that backline.
Who knows, if they show up with the right attitude, have a good start and get some confidence they could cause an upset.
