Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Sharks

[Tommy Smith]

The difference in this clash will be defensive resolve.

We have bucketloads,
The Sharks have none.

[Mickie Lane]

I cant wait to see Duges, tough guy Woodsy & my favourite Andrew Fifita tonight. I think they all went for the Chooks growing up.
They have some big dudes playing tonight Cronulla like Siosifa Talakai, Braden Hamlin-Uele & Toby Rudolf. I rate that Connor Tracey he's got plenty of ticker.
I got a feeling its gonna be closer than people think but I thought that when we played the Broncos a few weeks ago. Roosters 58 Broncos 12 so I have no farken idea.

[Grant Hedger]

All the best to Aubo tonight. Versatile, humble and a true team player.

[Bahrain Rooster]

Best of luck to Aubo and the rest of the team. Wish I could be there to watch it live but I’ll stick to Watch NRL for now. Go the Chooks, fark the Sharks.

[Teddy]

No SST is the big one we haven’t played a game without him this year from memory (correct if I’m wrong), he’s the biggest out, he’s been our best without him we’re not in this position simple as that I truly believe that.
JWH must dominate in this game if we are to win.

[mattyh]

well defend our balls off for aubbo. but well still have balls at the end of the game. so win win.

[Johnny Brass]

We have got some stars out but our replacements have been terrific for us all year.
The boys will be keen to keep the momentum rolling into the finals and notch a win to celebrate Aubo in his record breaking game.
Easts to win.

[Thirteen]

I can’t see their attack troubling us too much. They will be lucky to get more than 1 or 2 tries. Our attack won’t be as potent without Teddy and SST up front but I expect a comfortable win.

[Voice of Reason]

Sharks are looking good at $7 that’s pretty good odds considering the amount of talent the roosters are missing.

Then go put your house on it.

No Teddy is pretty big too . Happy with a win and no injuries. . Chooks by 8

[Bondi Spy]

I always equate the finals vs the proper season via that quote from Chariots of Fire that Sam Mussabini said about running, distance runners run on guts but a short sprint is run on nerves. It’s tailor-made for neurotics.

Cleary is too laid back, too calm, too much of a guts coach. I see coaches like Trent Robinson and Craig Bellamy, they’re just one giant nerve.

Best movie ever!

You nullify Johnson and they have nowhere to go unlike us where there are playmakers all over even on the bench.

[Lydon]

We will win tonight and cement our top 3 position on the ladder!
