Roosters vs Sharks Match Discussion

[fletch]

simply a must win game today if we want to make the top 4 this year, the Sharks definitely our bogey team, we must avoid getting dragged down by their niggling spoiling tactics and give ourselves a chance to let our skill/talent advantage win the game.

Hastings is not playing NYC so unless he is 18th man there will be no Fergo today.

I decided not to head down to the Shire once i found out Cummin$ was in charge.

Our last game against the Sharks was on a Sunday, live on Channel 9 and this farker stitched us up, AGAIN !!!

I'd be surptrised if it's any different today.

We'll have to play a near perfect game to be a chance.

A beautiful dry afternoon. fast surface we should smoke them.

If cummins controls tge result today Robbo should say something. Dry day game. We usually win these. For us to lose the reffing must be totally one sided

[John Corey]

The last time we played the Sharks it was dry , sunny and the birds were chirping. And coz of those lovely conditions we decided to try lovely footy, rather than get down in the trenches against this mongrel side.

Let's hope JWH and Moa dominate first in the middle like last week. Only then should we start playing lovely footy.

[roostersrule2]

We missed JWH last time who is in 2013 form at the moment, if he dominates the rest of the pack will follow. If the halves can capitalise on that, our backs will have a field day.

Robbo just confirmed Fergo will not play on Triple M.

I expect the sharks to come out firing this arvo, they always do against us. Add that to Gallen coming back, a home game on a Sunday arvo and the guaranteed stich-up from Cummins and the other deadshits, I have a bad feeling about this game really.

[Tommy Smith]

Agree that it's a must win.

The Broncos, Souffs and Storm just keep on winning and we're flat out keeping pace so this is a must win.

LATE MAIL | Roosters will line-up as per program 1-17 with no late changes to the squad

[bondi paul]

Friend will be the difference

[Rooster_6]

It's a must win cause we've got a Warriors side only slightly affected by origin next week followed up by the Dragons who are even less affected by SOO the following week.

Win this game and even if we lose the next 2 which is a real possibility given the drain SOO is going to take on our team and we'll still be in the top 8. Lose it and we could drop down as far as 11th.

[Spirit of 66]

We have beaten Cummins before when he is at the peak of his game (e.g. the infamous "you're off your head" game against the Vermin), but I am not confident in the least today. By all rights, we should absolutely massacre this mob, but such is the proven influence of referees, I'd be surprised if we get up.

Geez Jennings!

they are holding us down and every time we do it to them a penalty is awarded
