I was at Henson Park for every home game in 1990. I know what it's like to support the Roosters during the dark days.
Were you around for those memorable performances?

Originally posted by Inflictor View PostI agree. Yeah we dropped a lot of ball but we do that at times. When a team like Storm complete at 90% we were never going to win.
But I thought our defence was real solid. Manu back at centre and Lodge, Crichton and Brown to come in our defence looks rock solid going forward.
They handled the conditions perfectly. Onto next week.
WHY don't WE complete at 90%?

Originally posted by Bruce Pickett View PostI thought that was one of our most courageous displays.
Melbourne had 50 plays in our 22 while we only had 14. They had over 60% of possession and territory apparently. It felt more like 70:30. I've seen them put 50-60 on teams with such numbers, even with a neutral ref.
The 2 players I feared tonight were kept relatively quiet - Olam and Hughes (this bloke always scores the match winning try against us. A Roosters junior as well!). Hutch helped keep Olam quiet for most of the game. He made a couple of bad reads, but I reckon his positives in defence outweighed the negatives.
Manu looked dangerous every time he touched the ball.
I haven't seen the replay yet, but I'm pretty
4 of the 5 Melbourne tries were preceded by a 6A, penalty, sin bin or an incorrect knock on call.
Also, 3 of their 5 tries came from kicks from memory because they couldn't get through our D. Tupou's and Butcher's 'lost'ball was actually a Melbourne hand/strip and should have been a penalty. Looking at you Grant and Munster. If it was the other way, 1000% we would have been penalised.
6A rule is an utter and absolute disgrace.
Klein is an even greater disgrace.
Proud of my team tonight. Easts to win.
More than a few people agree with this.Last edited by bondi.boy; 04-10-2023, 06:25 PM.
