This is gonna be an absolute flogging, nothing in attack with far too many mistakes.

 

[Oggyz]

Poor.

 

[Yossarian]

We must be the worst team in the NRL for diving on loose balls. It's on the freakin' ground!! Just dive on the damn thing!!!

 

[Tap_Twist_Snap]

Bring in state cup players and we look like a state cup team. Roosters have been pretty ordinary other than doing the basics and they are scoring with ease. If they actually turned up it would have been 30 to 0 at half time.

And now we just need to hope we don't get injuries

This goose is cooked already me thinks (unfortunately)

 

[MacDougall]

Typical of a young undergunned side with talent tbh. Not overly concerning to me considering all our issues. We proved that these kids have the talent to match it with them in the first 30 and we've proved we don't have the stamina or experience with the last 10 and I fear the rest of the match will go the same.

 

[littletiger]

Shocking defence on nofo side. Shocking.

 

[Tbone]

We're gone now.

Yep. They're trying hard, but several classes below with so many players on the sidelines.

The boys will do well not to let 40+ in. Roosters are coasting and have been poor.

 

[Yossarian]

14-0… Feels like 26-0\. Really need to fire up after the break. Brooks and Austin need to be more direct, need to stop the offloads.

 

[Tigerdave]

hard ask for the 2nd half, can we score any points? things seem way off in attack

 

[foreveratiger]

I always knew Roosters 13+ was easy money

 

[huntertiger]

Need to be the first to score in the second half or we are gone!!! There doesn't seem to be any communication on the field.. Hopefully they eat their red frogs at half time and come out firing.. GO Tiges.!!!

 

[Black_n_White]

We can turn this around… its not like we are outclassed out there, just too many errors and need a little direction, easily addressed in the sheds...

 

[MAFIA]

Goneeeeeeeeeeeeeski for mine predicting these chooks bastards to make us look very silly in the 2nd half my score will be 48 blot

At 4-0 down at halftime I give us a chance. 10-0, well I don't know where our points are going to come from.

I've had that feeling since Farah and Tedesco have been out. In fact, I'm pretty sure that the game against the cowboys was the last time we scored a try that wasn't either a dummy half run or from broken play/long range intercept.

 

[H-Tozza]

Gee I know we have injuries but man this has been poor…..

We simply offer jack effing nothing in attack and we're missing tackles at will.....the ease at which these three tries have been scored is alarming....

One of those tries was pretty classy, granted, but you can thank the ineptitude of Rowe and Lulia for the other two.....how the f... does Rowe retain his place in FG?...you telling me Nofa couldn't fill the void better? Potter's faith in rowe is bemusing, he is pathetic...

 

[hobbo]

From all reports farah was super keen to play , I would've played him . The chooks were poor to say the least for the first 30 mins and things could've been different with Robbie out there .
Who gives a rats about origin … It's a farce IMO
Tapau should have started the game as well .
If we shut down the offloads and hang in to the ball we're still in this game ... Just !

I don't know where their points are going to come from. They look ineffective in attack. I hope they dig in in the 2nd half and not let them clock up too many more points. Feel for them, missing sooo many players. Trying hard.

 

[MacDougall]

Taupau should have started the game? We were right in it with Galloway and Woods out there. Don't see Galloway as the weakness some do.

If there's one thing that I feel could provide a miracle it's Mick Potter. I reckon he has a gameplan for just this situation. I also think at 14-0 the Roosters won't come out with the same urgency they would have if they were only up by 4.
