Roosters don't want to announce SBW out, so holding off to sell more tix?

[Guest]

rubbish. not what I expected.
souths have over-rated outside backs, a rank average 5/8, a weak-as-piss backrow and their captain is starting on the bench. and theye meant to be titile contenders.
LOL@50UFFS!

Easts by 20!

Their outside backs are seriously so bloody weak, especially their centre pairing.

Forward pack is also one of those "big bopper" packs that can't actually stand up when they run into quality (check out any game they played against top 8 sides last year for proof).

I'm feeling confident

You're onto it Tony, it's the Buzz.

Has nothing to do with the Roosters long history of being one of the last clubs to release their lineups every week.

We will need to limit the Rabbits momentum early in the tackle counts. Inglis kick returns followed by Burgess/Asotasi up the middle could get them over the half way line on the first 3 tackles quite easily. Pressure will be on our kick chase and defence in the centre. If we can get these right, there is plenty of skill in our line up to put points on them.

Big games required by JWH, Kennedy and Samoa.

I'd like to see Pearce/Maloney put the ball dead as much as possible. Even if it means giving Souths a 22 tap.

Glad someone does, cause I think they are very stong defensively and that's how Maguire picks his teams, they focus on defence first than let their 3 or 4 dynamic players do the rest, it's very simple but effective strategy.

id like to see a midfield chip from pearce or Maloney for Jennings flying through the middle.
