Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Storm

[zac]

great game, gutsy win. we're the roosters

[Jacks Fur Coat]

What a gutsy win by the boys. Very proud of them.

Every conceivable chance for Storm to win that game but our defence and intensity was too good. They had so many opportunities in that last quarter of the game.

Very heartening to see Vic back on the field post match celebrating, should be sweet as a nut for next week hopefully. He was great tonight.

Big thumbs down to the commentators both channels tonight...was a real pro Storm push. Obvious on 9 with Smith and Slater, but on Fox that useless Dan Ginnane was so obviously riding the Storm home. Alexander at least consistent, just don't like us. Even Cronk was more pro Storm very strangely.

We'll beat Souths next week...confident.

You can't suspend JWH after that match. Thats what this time of year brings... after being niggled and baited by grubs. Dont you dare Match review.

He has used up all his fine options.

[roosterchook]

Teddy had a great game. So did Suuali and Lodge. But Collins had two dropped balls and a stolen ball and JWH let us down. They both need to fix up their game as we enter the finals. Toups may be gone for how long I don’t know.

[Eggspert]

That last 10min I could barely watch. The stress was intense. Would of been a disaster if we lost considering whose out for next week.

We finally are the REAL DEAL!! after a game like that.

6 heart attacks later.....

My only concern is that he has paid three fines already. I don't know how the carry over system works these days

Rugby league deserves better commentary. It’s all tabloid culture.
i watched it on Kayo with audio for a change and for the quality of the game it deserved better commentary. A gutsy but costly win.

[bondi.boy]

Great win but genuinely feels like we've played our grand final, will be hard to get back up again after that.

Most likely.

A very good win tonite, made the finals...a successful season, all things considered.

[King Salvo]

He has used up all his fine options.

All depends as some of the charges have fines for second offences

[Johnny Brass]

What a win, no one wants a piece of the roosters.
Jwh is my best ,he put the wind up em and they wanted no part of him.
Hutch did a terrific job on Olam and Sammy Walker stood up under tremendous defensive pressure.
It's great to be a rooster

[King Salvo]

He’ll be back in time to sit on the bench in the prelim.

no week 1 of the finals first

[roostermcgregor]

I thought the season was over when Rads was convulsing on the ground.
I felt sick ..... I had to turn the TV off for a few minutes.
Then I checked out the score on the phone , and we are still ahead.
So I turn on the TV again, we are ahead, and win the game.
Radley is walking around smiling - WTF ????
We cannot win it without Toops, either.
Hope he can play some of the finals games.

Next week against Souffs- field a second string side - the game means nothing.

[top_joe]

The Body shake means no chance of playing next week and maybe the week after

That was a complete accident, but you cant help but think Rads is cutting his own career short.

[player 1]

Has anyone mentioned Munster viciously elbowing Walker's face after he tackled him? Should have been a send off.
