Match Thread; Sydney Roosters v Newcastle Knights @ Allianz Stadium

[fletch]

the mole is also reporting another big name rooster might not play tonight, hence why Moga/Evans/Morts/Reuben all on standby.

[John Corey]

Yeah, just read that Fletch. SBW fitness test.
Maubs to backrow. Moga to centre.

[roostersrule2]

Is it SBW or was that just a guess?

[fletch]

with all these possible changes the task tonight is more just get the 2 points than put on a demolition.

a back 5 of Mini/RTS/SKD/Moga/MacDonald is a ticking time bomb, certainly a rocks or diamonds combination, could be very good or very ugly.

I find it curious that Robbo has gone with Moga who is iikely to leave the club, ahead of Langi or Rhys Martin, because there could be a decent argument made that Langi/Martin are in as good form as Moga.

[roostersrule2]

Langi and Martin will get there time, they're better suited to the backrow so there's no point developing them as backup centres.

The Mole said SBW

Can only think that they are trying to convince him to stay now.

According to TheGman - one of the people here who seems to know what is going on - the Roosters have said tata to TauTau. They don't want him.

[bondi paul]

I loathe origin time - if selections are what has been said then it's a dangerous home game - I like to see better completion rates and 2 points. Up Easts

[fletch]

will be interesting to see the penalty count tonight now the Knights are owned by the NRL.

[Hollus]

The Mole doesn't know what he's talking about.

[Johnny.]

So we get a little Willie versus a Big Willie tonight.

Like me lining up against Mandingo.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Doesn't the sbw in doubt rumour get a run before most games?
