Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Panthers

[Teddy]

It;s been poor defence the Chooks are just letting the Riff run at will - waiting to see what are they going to do with the ball -ball watching

That’s what happens when you defend a man down 14 pts off the sin bin, add fatigue on the entire line from extra workload what did you expect? It’s not 18 or 19 6 agains killing us blatant errors from Penrith ignored our players run off kick chases it’s the same old story 6 apart from Penriths first try which entirely our own fault e rest of their points were manufactured by the refs.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

10 points down with the amount of possession and territory against us probably expected. Shame after a strong start.

Big mistakes by Manu, Ikuvalu and Lam put us under more pressure.

Dud call to sinbin SST and crucial. The guy was slipping, never bin accidental contact.

JWH a colossus. Cleary the maestro.

[stringaz]

not much he can do with the options available to be honest. scrapping the bottom of the barrell

Bag the players, sure. But there is literally no one to replace some of them. Good start but errors took our ascension away and then clown stuck the knife in and penriff obliged.

Another dodgy sinbin that has opened us up how many times since the parra game??!!

[BenCumminsIsACheat]

Get Lam off. He is rubbish. Not even reserve grade standard.

Has to be:
4. Suaalii
5. Smith
6. Manu
7. Walker

Ikuvalu and Lam are worse than garbage

[RoosterFanNZ]

First contact was actually on the hand of Cleary.
Deflects up from there and aided by a dive

should be aiming lower, ribs are exposed and open smash him there

[Bmw06i]

Really not enjoying what you game has turned into.

in saying that, that was unacceptable by LAM not to find touch with a player down.

[roosterchook]

The ref has given 22 points to the riff. 6 again +penalty 6 points. 2 penalty kicks 4 points. Sin bin = 2 tries = 12 points. Total off ref calls = 22 points.

The game needs to be 13 vs 13 with the best team winning. All these advantages given one sided is unfair and ruins the game.

Its payback for Robbo’s press remarks.

[Bowzy]

This Penrith team has to be the luckiest team I’ve ever seen, anytime their in danger, they get a penalty. Even the likes of Melbourne past have never been favoured as much as this lot.

[The Brain]

Please no more Lam

[RoosterRooster]

Angus has clocked off.
WTF

[Johnny Brass]

Great start from the boys led by Jared up front and Fletcher Baker was strong but once the Panthers got down our end Cleary tightened the screws. Teddy looks busted to me and struggling to turn.
Ikuvalu and Lam aren't up to it and it's clear that Suaallii is a better option for us.
Sin bin really hurt us and it's ruining the game I've said it before bring in the rule that the player can return to the field if the team scores.

[Big Dog]

Clearyya diver he cuddled up him

Well of course. The match officials have been against us for quite some time. Just sign the petition and spread the word http://chng.it/h7F4NCPgt8

[HDTONE]

Lam is liability !!!!

[RoosterBoi]

Can't even get angry anymore, this game just makes me sad.

[Vasco]

The kickoff stuff up was the beginning of the end.
