Good team, well coached, but roster fairly average in some places. E.g. Alex Johnston, Mark Nicholls, Corey Allan, Campbell Graham, Doueihi, Sutton, Tatola, Britt - all modest footballers.
If you were to list out the best performing and most dangerous footballers in both sides, there are probably 7 Roosters in the first 10, with only Murray, Sam Burgess and Cody Walker being legitimate match-winners. And Walker goes missing periodically, Sam Burgess was out - goes to show in 1 week Souths can match the Roosters, lose that momentum and get spanked when it really counts.
So disappointing, can't stand Roosters and it was over by the first half.
