[HEGtheROOSTER]

Here’s a great article on the Player’s Voice by Robbo, on our whole ethos and culture here that paved the way to the premiership....

That article literally gave me an erection. Thanks for posting!

How about the respect he gives to Maubs...

"Above all at the Roosters, Mitchell Aubusson is that guy.

In our dressing room, Mitch is the symbol of what the club is. If his thoughts on the team are a certain way, we know that's what's right. He's our litmus test."

I sincerely hope he plays 300 games for our club. I believe he's about 37 games short so at least two more seasons of Maubs would be just reward for the legend.

And as for Robbo, I hope he's our coach for 20 years.

Yep, boner for me also

I wouldn’t swap Robbo for anyone - but even Bellamy, whose golden run is over.

A thousand thank yous Heg.

That article demands exposure.

Some of its lines will be quoted for many years to come in the world of rugby league.

Agree with all the comments on this thread. Great article that pretty much nails all that is great to be a Roosters fan today. We should all be proud.

awesome read!

The amazing irony is all the suppprters of other teams love to say “ Roosters are a club without soul” when the truth is the club spirit and togetherness is what makes the club so successful. Soul has been the foundation of the tricolours/ Roosters since 1908. It’s what sets them apart from the rest- yet they get attacked about what is actually their strength. Go figure

I truly believe Robbo will go down in history as the greatest rugby league coach of the modern era.

Those who say we have no soul are the ones living in the insecurity of their past. It sounds like Robbo has used that "no soul" BS to really rub it in their faces.

no theres only 1 club who say we lack soul, we know who ....we have far more soul then broncos, titans, eels, raiders, storm, warriors , cows without jt, ,of the remaining clubs yes i dont doubt they have soul but soul aint won knights, tigers, dragons, panthers, dogs much recently has it ?

Thankyou Heg for your sharing. As Robbo said you get those special performances when players go above and beyond than just thinking sbout themselves. Like these forums, there is no doubt players read these posts, so like the 208 people that helped win the GF, we as supporters of this great club have our own role. Back your team no matter what, support them no matter how bad it gets and love them as they represent who we and what we beleive in and most of all stay loyal. This is all our team, the mighty Roosters. I look forward to contributing to next years road to the GF.

Bellamy is the evil that is Melbourne. Before he arrived they were a team anyone could cheer for, now they are hated.
They are hated for what they do on the field for the filth that is perpetuated under the guise of competitiveness.
He is the one that taught his players to kick out when catching the ball, to twist body parts in the tackle.
It is Bellamys blueprint and his only plan, hence his failure at origin coaching
