Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Storm

[mattyh]

good game, lots of effort, way to many mistakes . to many dumb errors at critical times. really should have finished it off when josh Morris scored, but not to be, noticed our defence looked a little ragged at time. thought Lindsay, b moz, flanno, keary, sst and especially Angus we're strong. boyd made a few to many errors, and jake prob had a good game till the final brainsnap. we looked like a team who had won 5 straight, we were not poor, but not great either reset, improve, move on. think robbo may have the balls in soapy buckets for a few at training this week.

Toops needs to hold his head in shame.

bit harsh

[Thirteen]

I just didn’t want Butcher anywhere near the ball in the last few minutes. He is slow and just got in the way.

[Teddy]

Yes we did a lot of that to ourselves we know, but the shit Klown handed them is inexcusable. Proud of the boys never out of the fight against purple dogs and that little yellow cheating scumbag, see you in the finals purple scum.

[Bruce Pickett]

Pure guts. So proud of this team.
Great match.
Go Easts.

[mattyh]

Yes purple scum you 'win' From a milked penalty , story of your life you grubby grubby ****s . Hold your head's high Roosters you are the real deal !!

wasn't a milked penalty, was a total brainsnap by friend I'm afraid.

[King Salvo]

some bad blues tonight dropped balls and those kick offs not once but twice they get the ball back and score from both - 10 in front - they looked home - costly too with injuries - Toops leg injury didn't look too flash. Tedesco was quiet sure was marked but I thought through the middle were chances- missing Radley already

[elo]

19 errors! This must be close to a NRL record.

[Bmw06i]

Worst game iv seen Toops and Cords in a very long time.

The plan for the last kick off with 40 seconds to go should be simple.

HOLD THE BALL and we win.

Yes Klein has a very one sided game but we put ourselves in that position.

I think we were poor. Leaked 27 points. Terrible completion. Melbourne should have beaten us easily with all the ball they had due to our errors. Tough night for Toops and Cords and ironic they both went off injured.

[mattyh]

can people saying the ref was to blame for the result go back and 're watch the game, stupid errors at critical and I mean critical times is what cost the game. tupou 2 dropped balls which Melbourne score off, then friend with a play so utterly stupid it defies belief. still we were in it up to our eyeballs.

I turned the channel in disgust after that, couldn’t watch the storm win after that stupid play, lose by a FG, fair enough, lose when we just gift them the 2 points like that, not for me.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

F@*k Cam Smith. He is the biggest cheat in the history of the game. Major * next too every so called achievement he has ever got. I have no respect for him whatsoever

It’s always the first response when we lose. “It was the refs fault.” Trying to console themselves with the loss by blaming someone. Blame the errors that’s the reason we lost. Pure and simple.

[The Brain]

Threw that win away...pure stupidity..
a lot of dropped ball by chooks kept them in the match...and melbs constantly inside the 10..not one penalty
