Really impressed with both halves defensive efforts.
also Satili’s defence has improved out of sight.

A pleasure to watch.

[Johnny Brass]

Kasey Badger said no try. She has her eyes painted on

Well she is Badgers Mrs, she's just continuing the bunnies love and roosters hatred

I’m at the game and just a few things I’d like to point out.
Tupouniua has been really good, and I’m usually pretty harsh on him. Helps when he’s getting some space to work with.

Jared is still an absolute premiere prop in the game.
Walker is turning into a very, very good young player.

Everyone is playing well, and Keary looks very sharp which is great. Defense is also hugely improved.

The Eels only look threatening when they’re offloading a lot, and when Moses gets to play off a very quick play the ball. Think we have everything else covered.

I’d love to keep them to one try in this second half, but so far, really impressed with the performance.

If the stuff about Ryles giving the pack a rocket was true, it’s definitely working so far.

Go the Chooks.

[Bruce 38-0]

The six agains. I just can’t see how good other teams can be. Watch next week. The Riff won’t give any away when they play us but what gave 5 straight last night against the Drizzle.

If you weren’t watching the game you’d think Parra were winning based on those stats.

Walker has been responsible for almost all our points through goal kicks, a try and try assists. He’s a freak superstar.

There is no way penalties are 5-2 our way??

[King Salvo]

I think the Eels came with a wet weather game so expect them to start moving the ball this second half so the Roosters Defence needs to work as a unit - straight line of defence

[bondi paul]

Need to score 1st in the second half.

There is no way penalties are 5-2 our way??

stats say this

[Noosa Rooster]

Apparently 8 years since we’ve lost after scoring 20 first half points.

Good start again Suaali scores 25-6 that field goal on half time looks very useful now
