NRL site saying roosters hopeful of both Radley and Toups returning for week one of finals - fabulous news if true.

Well that would be something wouldn't it. Fingers crossed! We can replace Lindsay so much easier than Toops and Vic

Probably after being slammed into the ground by that thug NAS.

[GrubBER]

I think losing this week would be a blessing

[Lydon]

Smart move Robbo,give Joey a rest and freshen him up for next week!

If Parra win possibly. If Storm win I want to play Raiders at home next week!

Yea the issue with that but is the week after …. Having said that I think we’ll win anyway

Suaali has been ruled out just for this week due to a minor shoulder injury

Sua'ali-i (shoulder), Rads (HIA), JWH (calf), Keary (calf), Walker (calf), Manu (calf) and a few others (calf) have been ruled out this week due to injuries. In other news, Easts will be wearing Bears jerseys due to some random historic event that nobody remembers.

With Hughes out for the Storm and rumours doing the rounds Munster will also be rested, I feel Bellamy will tank tonight to avoid playing the Panthers week 1 of the finals..

In saying that I’m sure we will play to win tomorrow night irrespective of other results,no way we go easy against Souffs!

The problem in that scenario if Parra beat Penrith in the first week then the storm would have to play the panthers the following week in a sudden death game.

Surprised Butcher doesn't have a calf
