Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Broncos

[mightyrooster]

So is JMoz injured or just rested?

Morris out Suaalii starts in the centres.

JS has normally been playing on the right at centre so I'm hoping that playing on the left wont be an issue.

So is JMoz injured or just rested?

I’m going to assume rested, similar to how they managed the Morris boys last year due to their advanced age

The Broncos can beat anyone on their day.
We must play our very best today and not take them lightly.
They are a big team, with champion wingers, and big forwards.

Any team can conceivably beat any team. But the Broncos haven't won in Sydney in nearly two years. The Roosters are honouring Jake Friend tonight and I can't imagine them taking things easy tonight. They will come out with fire in their bellies.

Easts by 40 (with a man in the bin).

I noticed in the lower grade JS got roughed up a few times and was slow to his feet, hoping the transition into first grade pans out... he doesn’t look 17 yet he still is and his up against men... good luck mate!

I heard on radio that Hutch had to go back to hospital due to a complication of the injury, but I’m sure I just saw him with all the sidelined players on the stand. I hope he gets better and gets back on cause he was really giving it a good go.
