Melbourne had to play football to get back into the game, we've just been poor in this second half.....hope we can hang on.

Poor Lam has had a shocker.

SOS Keary.

[fletch]

I love you SST

[stringaz]

So much man love for tauks he's been the point of difference today

[Roosters1908]

Wow. SST!

[Crab]

Good stuff TKO well deserved try mate

[Tommy Smith]

Tauks might be the best prop in the game.

He won is this game almost single handedly.

Poor Lam has had a shocker.

SOS Keary.

He should be shot for his hero hog..like his old man

well summed up as great first half a few missed opportunities, pretty ordinary first 30 mins in the second half. a bit of luck for sst to score the winner, second half fades are a real issue. i think lam was more anonymous then poor, but that may have been the plan ?

Jake Friend excellent. Without him I don't think we win today.

Really struggled to get our attack on today without Keary.

SST, Teddy, Cordner, Toops all really strong today too.

It was a great win considering we Kearny was out and the dragons are always so, so difficult on ANZAC Day. Their defense was very good. We had bad lapses in defense but despite that our defense won it. It’s always good to get a win in these matches because they are played like grand finals. So a good hard won win.

Spot on Brain. That was a stupid stupid play to first run away from support and then try that no-look flick pass out the back to nobody.

What a dour match it was but very pleasing that the Roosters won on this day against that team.

For some reason a lot of the players looked very tired, perhaps due to today's unseasonably warm day.
