How garbage are the roosters. I'd be chuffed to win our next two and get a crack at them. Totally winnable

only issue will be fatigue..the week off is huge

The roosters didn't look tired tonight they looked really fresh but still played like garbage. I don't think the week off will help them too much. I'm happy to keep playing each week, we need to play ourselves into form

Roberts is dodgy in defence. If ever he played Origin at centre he'd have to defend on the wing
Darius now under the pump to come back from serious injury nearly like Tupou tried tonight .RISKY

Thats exactly what I thought as well. If we beat the Cows on Sunday, I fancy our chances of making the GF, assuming the Storm beat Parra. This weekend, we are expected to win which makes me nervous. If we do, we will probably go into weeks 2 and 3 as underdogs and I reckon we will really lift for that. Anyway, glad we won't have to face Manly.

Yeah good outcome.
So it is basically Melbourne vs Cowboys/Sharks/Eels/Roosters.

Out of those teams it is only Roosters that I would hate to see make the GF. But still better than Broncos.

Sydney and the NRL need to do everything in their power to make a state of the art stadium in a good location, like next to / on top of central station or Redfern.

The fact they are contemplating building one next to SFS disgusts me. It isn't even a bad stadium, just a **** spot. And **** going west of Newtown

It's bizzare its what you do even tommorrow.. I'm playing golf then half a dozen of us from golf club training it in to watch storm parra.

Yep. Theres a difference between afl and nrl that will never be changed. Afl has always been that fancy sport so to speak. Something the rich housewife would even go to. League is still the bogans game i guess.
