Team & coach are a disgrace

[BTRD]

Gould is a knob we know, but he know's his footy. In commentary he said all the Roosters had to do in the second half was to continue running STRAIGHT and they will win. He couldn't believe it when they started going f f kcu ing sideways - and he couldn't believe Young's horrific stuff for the final try.

Surely Robinson is sending the message on to the field: " run straight only you dead set kum quats ".

neither team nor coach are a disgrace, I don't even want mass changes, I think townsend needs to go , Dom young one more chance or your doing a stint .

other then that lets jist try to make no errors for the first 10 mins or at least minimise them , 50 % completion at half time , 57% last week aint going to win footy games .

You just don't see the Storm make those fundamental errors in their own half. Very rarely.

Maybe the Storm players have some kind of fear of Bellamy that they do everything to play with discipline. I don't know, but whatever it is, it's bloody frustrating seeing these errors every week.

Sure we defended unbelievably in the first half. But we put ourselves in that position time after time with dumb errors.

Do you think that's true or do you think you just watch less of the storm and have less invested in them so you don't notice the fundamental errors as much? For example did you know we had a better completion rate than the Storm last year?

The Storm have changed their style post Cam Smith, they're a very attacking team these days who's not scared of throwing it around and making an error.

Wow Whoopee Doo...one stat that seems impressive....a little snap shot to celebrate. Pop the champagne cork.

What about the errors, completion rate, inability to get the advantage over a severly depleted opposition in the 2nd half....

What a crap, no value contribution. Your love for coaching mediocrity is blinding.

You've taken my post well out of context. If you're going to troll at least add a bit of wit to it.

Agree.

On a side note,how did we lose to this Titans team at home last week?

Currently getting pumped at home by the Dolphins who haven’t won a game all season..

This season is getting uglier by the minute..

Marky back next week. He and Teddy have been our only creative backs. Are you dropping Billy after a solid game?
If Robbo plays Marky in Reggies i will lose my shit.

toia might have a spell, just being young.

I can't drop Toia after aiming up to Trell last night. He certainly doesn't deserve to be dropped ahead of Young.
If it is a week off for a rest then ok sort of but I'd be surprised if he gets dropped to play reggies.

Our defence needs to be on against the Broncos so a big risk going with Young.
I can't see what upside there is with Young. I think this is the best he's got. Anything he's got Marky has over him in bucket loads.

as much as toia looks to have a big future i'd put him at number 3 in the centre pecking order. the fact that he seems to be the only one with right edge experience complicates things. dropping young's an option but that's a big call

If we had smart halves, they would be directing that and ensuring the forwards know where to run.

When you say “we all”, it implies that you are speaking on behalf of all Chookpen members. Please don’t include me in your absurd rhetoric, where you pretend to be the Roosters No.1 supporter and at a moral level above all others. NEWSFLASH……YOU'RE NOT on either count.
You just lack any passion for the club and results clearly don’t matter to you. Mediocrity is your friend and I’d argue that you are not really a supporter of the club, but just a troll taking potshots at real supporters that actually care about the success of the club.
If they read the shit that you post, even Coach Robinson and Uncle Nick would think that you are an absolute flog. Hard to disagree, one would say.

Sal is unarguably as dedicated to the Club as anyone here is and much more than most. True, he is, sometimes, in denial as most also are but apart from that he is annoying, disruptive and provocative and the site needs that. What, are we all gonna sit around agreeing? There are other contrarians but none have the sheer doggedness and thickness of hide that sets Sal apart. Just sayin'.

Agree Paddo. Tempers got frayed the other night. Salvo should not have said what he said to Matty about not being a true supporter given his previous association with the Riff. It was a low blow and Matty’s retaliation was certainly fair enough and justified. But we need to hear different views here and Salvo is a great supporter of our club. We all want Easts to win and be strong.

Sorry PC whilst I don’t really care how he carried on with others The way he carried on playing victim and lying about posters speaking ill of his wife and mother in law ( not one post has mentioned them I looked through it ) after being shown up the other night. Then quoting online laws crying bullying, but which having read through them and seeing what was said this site would have nothing to worry about if he went down that path, shows what a complete and utter knob he is. One who was happy to dish it out but couldn’t take it back in return I don’t care who he supports he showed yrsterday and Friday night he is a truly pathetic individual

I tend to agree. He's obviously a talent but seems unable to find room to move at NRL level. Maybe coach's orders or still getting familiar with his position in this team at this time. Still he has shown enough to leave him there for the experience in a building year.

Robbo is doing what he's done throughout, it's what every coach does, incrementally building towards unity of purpose bu he's good at it. He usually has the side peaking and ready to roll 4 weeks out. This year seems no different to the last 2 seasons, poor start but looking better for the most part each game, albeit losing. But this is a new side like a few others in the comp and we should compare ourselves to those sides at this point and not to Melbourne, Broncs or the Riff.
