Official Match Day Thread: Roosters V Bulldogs

[Pablo Escobar]

Let's go boys..

Clinical... Improve for and against....

[Rooster Fred]

yep. don't have fox so will be watching it on the radio tonight. still, we've just won b2b and are as good a chance as anyone to win this year. i'll survive.

Yeah first world problems I guess. Makes you realize how great it is just to be able to kick back and watch the Roosters. At risk of sounding like Gus Gould I do love afternoon footy.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Been hard to focus on this one but should get in the groove in a few hours.

Predict a Mozfest with the twins firing up against the old club.

[The Skeez]

I’d like to see a patient game from the team tonight. Even if the forwards just lock it up and play through the middle until the get the ascendancy and then the game can open up

[crikey chris]

That’s a good number mattyh, I’ll go one better and say 23 (it’s been a lucky number for me I have backed the winning Melbourne Cup horse two years running, both horses that won wore the #23) Keary to pot a field goal before halftime.

Cooper also had 23 on his back in the 2018 gf. Was a good omen for me as well, 23 was the Melbourne cup winner!

Yep in 2018 Cross Counter wore RWB strip spring Vow and Declare last year, so long as Easts keep winning the big one I’ll keep backing the 23 in the big race.

Big bad Lindsay Collins has been in great touch. Hard as nails, big motor and faster than some backs.

A slight worry for me though is him becoming another Marty Lang. That hard straight running style without fear or deviation opens him up to the school of hard knocks. His tall yet lean muscular build leaves him open to a slow moving hitter like Napa tonight for instance. Over time can be dangerous.

Maybe needs a little jink or swerve in the reportoire?

not quite. I have telstra TV and as per this Telstra forum reply, I can only watch replays, (after they have been shown on Foxtel), which is approx 1 day delay, 4 min highlights and an excellent 10 min extended highlights.

"The Telstra TV NRL App will provide access to replays and other video content however this is not available as a live streaming option.
Live Streaming with the NRL Live Pass is only available on compatible Android and Apple mobiles/tablets and cannot be extended on to an external video output.
They are 2 different apps.

'Watching it on radio'? Good luck with that!

I’m just glad that I can afford Foxtel & can’t wait to get home & watch it.
Go the MIGHTY ROOSTERS.
28-6 to the Chooks is my prediction.

[Johnny Brass]

Too much firepower for the dogs even allowing for their improvement with Foran in the team.
Hopefully Joey gets some early ball I think his too strong for young Avarillo.
Easts to win

You must love Monday footy without having to worry about your weekend detention.
