  • Last 2 years

    Wow. This season and tonight, in particular, has truly made me reflect on our last 2 premiership years and realize how lucky we were to keep our players on the field for most of the year. This honestly sucks so bad watching so many players go down and the one that hit me the hardest tonight was Aubo. If tonight was his last game for the club I will deadset be heartbroken, what a player. Just praying he can get back out there so we can send him off the right way. After tonight I seriously question how far we can go this year, it's so fair to say injuries have ruined the year. You hate to use the excuse of them, but at this point for us it just goes from worse to worse every week. Keary is the biggest loss possible. I think we might be done for this year in my personal opinion (dont crucify me). Love this team so much and know that anything is possible and that we can beat any team on our given day but this year has just been shit and if we don't get a top 4 spot and a few more injuries we may aswell just look to 2021.

    PS. really hope I, and you guys come back to this message after we 3peat and tell me how I was so wrong.

    Robbo and Bellamy both mentioned during the presser that the 6 again should be looked at in the off season, They are concerned by the fatigue factor and how it affects players judgement and can cause injuries as a result.
    Bellamy particularly had concern about injuries to both teams tonight. He blames the repeat sets for these problems. Be interesting to see what comes of it.

      I get the feeling we'll be in it still come finals. Injuries permitting.

      Maybe getting our asses so thoroughly kicked wasn't such a bad thing. No hiding from that result.

        I am trying to be positive, but it is pretty difficult at the moment, I must say. We are not gone, but are nearly there. It is going to be a herculean effort to recover from this. The main hope we have is that the finals are a new race. If we can get most of our best back in time, we can challenge, but I do agree that Luke needs to be part of it. If he isn't, then it could be goodnight nurse. I will be praying not.

        Some people believe supporting the Roosters
        is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed
        with that attitude. I can assure you it is
        much, much more important than that.

          One of the problems at the moment is that there is no fear factor in our team compared to the last 2 seasons.
          When teams looked at our line-up and saw JWH, Victor and Napa, they knew what was coming their way.
          Butcher, Liu, Aubusson, tupouniua etc.. It doesn't set the alarm bells ringing IMO. When you don't fear a team, then you play to your ability and I think it is showing this season.

            The positive is if and a big IF we get a full squad back (. With SBW sub for Radley) I think we can still give it a big shot, and all is not lost.
            If we manage a 3peat we will be regarded as one of the best ever teams in the history of the game especially father the injuries we had suffered this year .

                In the past 2 years we have had at least one of these losses where we got our asses handed to us. Last year it was the Knights at Newcastle, In 2018 it was the Warriors and Dragons. The loss is not the end of the world and when we get Keary and the troops back we will see us return to our best.

                  Freshen up our squad.

                  Finish 5th.

                  Flog 8th.

                  Flog the Raiders in wk2.

                  Then with huge momentum, fit and firing, scare the shit out of our opponents in the Prelim then GF.

                  Win the 3peat.

                  Simple and done

                    I was against all the rule changes some wanks were calling Vlanys a genius ...not me.
                    All his rules are backfiring .I knew this would happen the 10m is non existant allowing 3rd man in ,prowler tackle ,flops to be passed by the single ref because he has been told not to blow the whistle .
                    The game is shit in this Micky Mouse season.
                    Look at last night how many Melbourne defenders did you see tackling around the head? how many crap 6 agains were given $/ or something they shouldve been given every tackle from both sides.
                    Its not Vlandys on his own its Bennet and Jabba the Hut Gould they all had a say in this .
                    NRL needs young blood
                    Go back to the late eighties and early Nineties when the game was great and hardly any of this shit controversy all stated by Bennet way beck when...
                    Vlandys is a good game admin but who made him the god of the way the game is played?.
                    have to live with it for now.
                    Hey by the way no citing on the DH that last tackled Keary in the air after his kick and broke his ribs?.
                    Fairdinkum Robbo stick up for your players .
                    Dont listen to Bellamy the master rule breaker who comes out and say hey the 6 again is ruining the game he is the biggest exploiter of every ruloe.
                    Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe
