TEAM LIST Round 18 v Roosters

[supercoach]

People are forgetting that the Roosters are missing 8 regular starters. While their backline is close to full strength, their pack is KOE standard. I reckon we'll dominate the middle and win comfortably.

Been drinking again Ted?

I’m with you Ted. Wests Tigers 50-0.

We’re obviously low on troops, but on paper that must be the most dismal spine I’ve seen.
Bird? Seriously?
And Twal captain…omg. The most pathetic part is that there is no obvious alternative.

It’s uncanny. Every year we seem to discover ways to set a new lowest standard.

Idk about that. May is the leader of our pack, plays 80 and is up against the club who he feels shafted him. Would have had this game circled on his calendar since last November.

This is the worst side we’ve named in quite a while.
Hopefully we can use this against Roosters who will surely take the field assuming tries will come easily.
Has all the look of another 70 point flogging.
Fight hard boys and disrupt them.

It’s an interesting match up and thankfully SOO hit at a perfect time for us.

Looking at the teams we look better in the forwards & they look better in the backs but outside of Teddy that gap isn’t huge if we turn up.

If the boys fight and play error free, whilst staying close at the 60min mark we could pull away at the end.

I still expect us to lose and by a gap but the sides on paper aren’t massive gaps apart.

 

[Vicious]

This Roosters line up we are playing contains a fair few of their NSW Cup team that have been worse than ours this season.
Nothing too scary about this Roosters line up, we are a big chance of getting the win if all our team do their job and we get a bit of luck for a change.

 

[Muffstar]

Marky Mark from the Roosters will score 5 tries.

 

[tiger_one]

This game will reveal what we've got as a team.
Playing with 16 others, the underdog against a foe, expected to run rampant.
Will really show our worth, better or worse, and will decidedly expose certain players to be kept or discarded.

Luke L will sort him out, or is that wishful thinking ?

Can Fonua Pole break in to more than a canter? Last game was so frustrating as he appeared to just jog into the defence with zero venom. Just cause Luai is away doesn't mean these guys don't know what they're doing. They're adults and bloody professionals. Last week was a disgrace.

If we play like last week again, it's an easy 50 point hiding, if not worse.

 

[Moh]

More excited for KOE this week...

Has Luke played much centre before? Surely Staines experience makes him the better choice. I'd expect them to switch.

There are a lot of lesser names in that Roosters forward pack and bench ..

The WT players should be embarrassed and step up…. They might not win but a hiding would be disgraceful…

It’s a game there for the taking, stop Teddy and Marky Mark and that’s about the only real dangers in the Roosters lineup.

From memory Luke L might have played one game as a centre in our NSW Cup team last year.
Benji loves putting these young blokes to the test, Heath Mason had only played one game at 5/8 in NSW Cup before being selected there for our NRL team and now it’s a similar story with Luke.

 

[innsaneink]

Weve beat them twice since 2011

19-12 in 2011
10-8 in 2018

For 395
Ag. 707

I’m glad Heath got suspended so he can’t pick him …is that wrong?

 

[happy_tiger]

Optimistic, did you leave off a zero?

I wonder what the biggest ever first grade loss is?

Dogs lost 91 to 7 back in the 30s

Charlie Murray does his best and won’t do anything wrong, but Heath Mason would add much more attacking spark than him as our 14.

And HM would be targeted in defence and miss a dozen tackles ,..he is not ready yet
