TEAM LIST Round 17 vs. Roosters

Team List
I cannot see us winning... But upsets do occur occasionally
They only have to off their game 1 or 2%, but given we put 48 on Canberra last week Robbo will be doing his best to ensure theres no complacency from them
That said... Dropped balls and I'll discipline from them, some luck going our way and who knows...
Long odds tho 🤞
 
Well, we are not expected to win, so no pressure on the boys. Just hope they rip in and give it a red hot shout. Anything can happen in a 2 horse race, but this one looks a hurdle too far, me thinks. Make that 3 hurdles too far.

Considering the Roosters have named a similar bench and Heath was brought into the game in the last 7 mins last week after AD sealed the victory I’d say Marshall is confident between AD and Bateman they have all positions covered. Smart move to keep him at 18th man as he can still come on and cover most positions if HIAs take effect.

Would love to see AD spend some time at 13 if not today then sometime in the future. Start in the centres, move to 13 later in the game (most likely late) . Understand he needs to work on his defence but last week showed he needs the ball in his hands. Hard to tackle, ball skills and less decisions defensively.

Lets hope the heavens open up all day long for the game. Gives us a better chance you'd like to think. Hope its sunny out there for everyone else.

Our coach is a genius, selects the 2 shortest wingers in the NRL to oppose the 2 tallest wingers in the NRL.
Our back 3 are severely outclassed.
 
Our entire backline will to a good job to contain their opposites. Our 8 9 &12 are a match with their opposites but we are severely outclassed in the pine teams.
We’ve already won an away game this season. Is 2 a possibility?

IF they’re a bit off and we bring the youthful energy it may be competitive.

It will be interesting to see what the coach’s tactics are? We were very good at LO last year against Cowboys because of our rushing defence. We gave our opponents no room to move.
Im thinking it’s an opportunity to revisit that?
Roosters will be very solid defensively and we traditionally havent scored more than 18 points against them during the last 20 or so games, so our ”D” will need to be relentless.

I’d rather the coach select wingers on form and ability rather than height to be honest. Wouldn’t matter who we picked in the backline we’re gonna be outclassed against this side
