Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Warriors

[ism22]

Hallelujah.

Taken the lead for the first time!

Looking at Sheck's whinge + expression in the play before, I say we win by 20+. In his mind he'd done the job by 1/2 time and was expecting the piggy-backs from the ref to continue. What? They called a strip?!??? But nobody called that against the Raiders the other week, sir!

What position is lam playing at the moment?

He came on for a prop but he's playing as a half-back.

[ism22]

Maubs!!! IMO his reputation as 'nice and helpful but not a superstar' is a myth. Give him a shot at Origin already!

[ism22]

Good tackle Lam!!!

[ism22]

Ref: 'HEEEEELD!!!!!!!' ... 'RELEEEEEASE!!!!'

It's a tackle, not a fukking yawnion scrum, mate!

Then after the shyte 40/20 attempt they just hold onto Teddy for an hour to prevent counter-attack. You can penalise them occasionally, ref.

Edit: They almost missed an early + high tackle on Lam. Decided it was too obvious after deep thoughts were had.

set for set warriors looking to kick early as I expected as well as finding touch and getting the chooks to ruck it out from their own end and force an error as they know the chooks like to pass the parcel and chance their arm

Yeah that's what you do when you're 2 ahead... not when you're 2 behind. Nice plan, Sheckie!

[ism22]

Luke Keary = Joey Johns? Beautiful touch with the boot!!!

not when you can force an error though- you kick early when playing in the wet- ball handling becomes harder and teams generally dnn't throw the ball around-ditto when the wind is behind you kick early and kick often - or has Big Jack Gibson often said - "Kick it to the Seagulls"

[Teddy]

Suffocated out of this game by the warriors being allowed to sleep on our blokes deadset why does this sporting competition have the poorest officials in world sport?

Agreed. Warriors lose by 30+ if the ref calls it.

It's a sympathy match. Good training for us...

[Tommy Smith]

Yes Joey!

That's what we need from him.
