Season Review

[Guest]

Whoever wrote this deserves the sack.

It doesn't even look like it was double checked!

Our round 23 win against the dragons wasn't 20-8...it was 20-12. I mean **** me...if the NRL site can't get it right what hope does anyone have!?

Where They Struggled: Territory was one of the biggest issues for the Roosters. Despite having several accomplished kickers in the team, notably Mitchell Pearce and Braith Anasta, the Roosters were the worst side in the competition for gaining ground through kicks, averaging only around 500 metres per game.

All Carney's fault of course.

Their running game was almost as poor, with only the Titans and Raiders running for fewer metres. No regular forwards averaged more than Nate Myles with 102 metres per game, and their inability to maintain good field position was a key reason to why they finished ahead of only the Eels and Titans in terms of point-scoring.

Discipline also hurt – they were the second-most penalised team for the year after Penrith, feeling the wrath of the referees 156 times.

That's the "useless and hopeless disgrace to the team" Nate Myles! LOL LOL LOL

Nate Myles...the magic metre-gainer!

Not completing sets means not getting to kicks which means less kick metres.

Top 3 reasons for a crap year 1. TC influence 2. Injuries 3. Early season attitude.

Well that's crap.

Last year we were THE MOST penalized side and made the GF. Which we should also have won, but the referees were just too good on the day.

Top 3 reasons for a crap year 1. TC influence 2. Injuries 3. Early season attitude.

4. Dumb penalties given away 'all' year for which the refs had no choice but to penalise.
5. 'Nothing' kicks.
6. No idea in attack...most passes taken while 'standing still'.
7. SKD and others losing the ball with monotonous regularity at the end of runs and in other tackes.
8. Stuffed up play the balls.
9. Wayward/dumb passes, possession lost.

In the last 4 games of the season there was improvement which hopefully will continue next year.

He didn't play as badly as people are making out.

...and, he was just one player in a team of 17 each week.

Well if he wasnt pissed all the time, he may have taken a few kicks. We carried that little ****wit for 12 months. CARRIED HIM!!! We played with ****ing 12 men most games and it cost us. All because of CARNEY. Nobody else. Just CARNEY. And no not Justin....its TODD thats the ****wit.

I bet Pearce had the most upward kick metres, every kick was a bomb, is there a stat on that????

Not a Carney fan I see.


Our forwards got monstered at the start of the year and then all the off field rubbish and in fighting started.
2011 one to forget.........
