the roosters read the script.they were supposed to win tonight.

there are better times ahead.and they will be this year.

Against which team?

It is like watching a team of boys play a team of men and we all know how it's going to end.

Maybe switch Lawrence and Delouise otherwise like WT tonight I have nothing.

We need to get us some bigger forwards. Pretty watching the Roosters easily make metres on each set.

Just get kapow back out there with a mission to line up Jwh and moa. Stop the rot

The first 25 minutes we were going toe to toe with them. Sue gives a bone headed penalty and the flood gates open.

I think this had more to do with the bench changes than anything else. Besides Lodge, I just don't think the bench is up for it.

I thought the bench were fine apart from the mistakes. I think Sue looks good as does Ava and Lodge. Sue though came up with a stupid penalty.

Taupau also just lost the ball and he does this consistently.

You can add to the list Robbies and Richards kicks out on the full.

Dumb plays put us under too much pressure.

You can't have a top eight side with the piss-weak bench we have. Bottom four side this year.

RoosterMan can't be too far away

Watched the 2010 semifinal v the Roosters the other night and its clear our forward pack is not where it needs to be. One out footy and no second phase.

Add to that we are lacking line speed in defence. I wish Woods and Taupau would just rush these Roosters forwards get up underneath them and drive (ala Gibbs and Ellis).

Great run from Farah

We should be kicking to find touch and slow the play down , when we Bomb there's no one chasing .

Defence is getting very shabby now

 

[Tiger_Watto]

Is my live stream making this look worse than it is, or are we really this disengaged?

just hanging back…......get up in their faces!

Embarrassing. Look at how the Roosters are playing, just showing off their skills and taunting us.
