Round 1 Roosters V Souffs.... Team Lineups

[Guest]

The "just" missed the grand final by getting slaughtered by Melbourne, beating the Raiders, then getting slaughtered by the dogs. They were as close to a grand final as the bloody titans were in 2010 i.e. nowhere ****ing near it

Any first grade side that doesn't look "razor sharp" in training would be bloody kidding themselves. Its easy to look awesome when you aren't running at anyone and are under no pressure.

If you think souths aren't a good side, you have no clue

[Spanner in the works]

From that I'd pick Kennedy, Cordner, O'Donnell and SBW/Mortimer depending on fitness.

[Vasco]

Heard Cordner's shoulder may not see out the season.

Interesting to see Mortimer is the utility rather than Seluini. I like it!

[Darkone]

well done

Guerra
Maubs
Morts

I think the team will run out 1-17 as named. Cordner replaces FPN when healthy and in a few weeks SBW takes Morbs starting spot.

I saw them train a couple of weeks ago too.

They looked sharp indeed.

In saying that, it is training and there is no pressure.

Either way, they will be very hard to beat.

We may take a few weeks to get going. Thursday's match may be a bit soon to be honest.

[fletch]

such a shame Cordner is not fit enough to play.

What kind of injury is it?

I doubt that

Look I understand you work for the Tele and thus talking up souths is in your DNA, but no I do not rate them as a title chance.

They have about the worst depth in the entire competition. when a strategically placed baseball bat can derail your entire club then you simply aren't a genuine contender.

What's your prediction then?

This reminds me of Homer hitting Mr. Burns knee into place for their bowling match.

Great analogy.
