Grand Final curse/hoodoo

[TheLoneRooster]

Anybody loving the weather in Sydney on Monday night and Tuesday night? DRY, FARKING DRY, NO FARKING RAIN when the GF would have been in progress.

I am sick past the back teeth of the Roosters being "beaten" by the merge scum, SO SO SICK of it.

Yes, the second 40 was poor and lacking in intensity. Why did half-time go for what seemed like 20 minutes? Is that normal? Did it affect the Roosters' momentum and aid the merge scum in allowing them to regroup?

At this level, the game is mostly a psychological one because they're all fit, they're all strong and they all have basic skills. Getting done over by the officials may have played on the minds of even the senior Roosters let alone the younger ones. 1 penalty in 78 minutes, 1 DAMN IT - were the merge scum perfect FFS?

AAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHH

LR,

The lattitude given to the Drag Queens by the refs on Sunday night was no different than what it has been all season - it's about the only thing the officials have been consistent in, letting the Drag Queens get away with a shitload more than any other side in 2010.

Why do you think that J Smith wasn't penalised for his knees into Lote in the game against the Tigers? A penalty which may have meant they didn't appear in the GF. There are different rules for the Drag Queens than there are for the other 15 teams, and has been all year.

Teams coached by Bennett are always the officials' darlings. It's like a fear factor. The Broncs had that advantage for years, now it's the Drag Queens.

That has been my gripe all year, yes our boys give away penalties.......but can the opposition be that diciplined that they only concede 1 penatly in 80 minutes.

i would love to know how many times Roosters opposition have conceded less than 5 penalties in a game this season.

Great post as always Novice. I can't stand coach smiley and the preferential treatment his teams receive.

When scum bucket j smith blatantly led with his knees into Lote's ribs - well, that would have been penalised if the offending player was wearing any other jersey but a red and white one. That penalty could have seen the tigpies in the GF and NOT the fargin merge scum.

melon likes to say it is the "Take Turns NRL" and I agree with him. This article shows you that this is "good for business".
