Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Manly

[Thirteen]

I will judge him on the 20 odd times I've seen him play.

Hope he proves me wrong but his strengths seem better suited to the wing and our needs.

Would've stopped that first try. Luckily just a trial and we can fix it next week.

Can’t take you too seriously after you campaigned to keep Keary at half last year despite the results we were getting. Even after the coach made the change you wouldn’t admit it was an idea that didn’t work.

[Chickenhawk]

The fix is on for the trial bonus. Certainly hope this isn't a preview. I know Robbo has needed DH in the past but please God, can we have a break this year? Just because he's a solid reserve grader, he hasn't proven to be a first grader. He filled a hole but please use a different remedy ffs. We're missing the halves and organisation.

Seems Robbo's plans for a fast start in season 2023 don't include this trial match. All I want for this second half is to minimise the damage and ideally not sea the chip stealers score again.

[stringaz]

Shame we lost joe early, he needs more time to get going in that centre role.

[QWERTY]

Don’t worry guys, Robbo’s plan is to play shit this trial game so we play good in round 1 lol

[Rooster36]

Thank god Chris and those involved realise not to give this bloke moderator status.. you really are such a negative person

[Jacks Fur Coat]

The bunker were so confused, they kept asking for it not to be replayed in slow motion but then realised it was Drew Hutchinson.

Hehe...poor Hutch.

Oh bugger it, poor us!

[RoosterBooster]

What amazes me being at the ground is how unfit the players seem. There is only 2 weeks too we start. I guess this is part of building for the season but maybe explains why we usually start so slowly

[roosterproud]

Melt down. The sky is falling. Kill jaxson Paulo.
lol bring on round 1. Sandon smith and tyler Moriaty.

[RoosterFanNZ]

dont really care about the win. would just like them to show some semblance of a footy team

[Lydon]

Knock on Manly,play on Ref!

[bondi.boy]

Yeh let’s judge him after 20 minutes of a trial game.

Obviously he has no idea how to tackle head on in the centres...he belongs on the wing.
Play him in the centres and we'll lose.

[Lydon]

Can Robbo please piss Hutchison off!

Enough already

Completions are not something we train for until half way through the season
