Round 1 vs the vermin

[Kelby]

Manu, Bmoz, Cronk and Crichton on the right-side should be the winners on the night.

i have a feeling souffs know they're in trouble and are in a fix, they remember not scoring a try against us in the final! this time we've even got chrighton on our side, where he belonged all along!

[stephenj]

Expect to see dirty niggling tactics from souffs to try and upset us, it wont but jarrod will be busy!

[elo]

The SCG will be running an east to west playing surface for our first match, weird.

Easts take note. Be good if after vermin match, members can vote east west vs north south.

My crystal ball says that Souths will get the first penalty & 2 points from one of their players tackled and slightly being hit on the head but getting up clutching at his jaws like if Ali hit him. Most likely to carry on like this would be either Sutton or Murray. They like the odd dive or 4.

If we win it by one point I will be happy.

LOL

We must stop giving away dumb penalties like we did in the Wigan match.

Beware any team coached by Bennett

Souths will be fresh, under-dogs, nothing to lose.

Look out!
This will be a very very hard game for us to win!

Maybe it's thought that Roosters members will get a closer view of the action at one end of the field at least, in each half.
Who knows.

Ground members will also be viewing the match from end-on in the Lady Members stand?....and side on in the Noble and Bradman stands?

Guess we'll just have to wait and see what it's like on game night.

Whichever way it's configured, fans are going to be a long away from the action...and no big screen to watch from Roosters members and other seating.
Why weren't the big screens from Allianz set up at the SCG for NRL fans to view?

It is not running East West, this was set up for the Waratahs game that is on tonight. The playing field
for Roosters vs Rabbits will be running north south.

That’s the alignment for the Waratahs match tonight. For the Roosters vs Rabbits it will be running north to south

They are going to have to after the chunks of turf that were coming out in sections of the ground tonight.

I really have doubts about us playing full-time here for multiple seasons.

Yikes.

Yep, I just checked the match report from the Waratahs game and it had pics similar to what you posted with chunks of ground ripped up and running repairs by the SCG staff it does not look good for Friday night and the up coming season.
