ROOSTERS SQUAD v STORM

Round 20 - Saturday 15th July
Sydney Cricket Ground, Sydney

The bye last week and a few troops back this week, which will hopefully make a difference. You'd like to think so, but we weren't going any better when these guys were playing anyway, so I'm not sure why I'm getting my hopes up. I guess I'm just an optimist.

Back to the old girl, the Sydney Cricket Ground, for the first time this year and a tough game against the Storm. They also had the bye, and just don't seem to have a bad game in them .... at least not against us.

A few welcome changes this week, with the Cheese, Turps, Egan, Billy the Kid and little Joe back from the casualty ward. Still no Walker, but I believe he is very close. Teddy & Lindsay to back up from Origin III if they get through unscathed.

Let's go Roosters !!

Best team in ages, still not confident.

Maybe Munster will blow a hammy in Origin.

[Stewie Griffin]

Good looking squad here. Back to the SCG. If that 17 lines up we are specials.

[fletch]

Like the bench plenty of potential impact from those 4.

[HunchoRooster]

Good 17. Pretty much exactly what I'd pick, except I'd have May over Brown. Great to have B. Smith back on board against his old side, he'll be up for it.

Semi-confident this week given we've shown some quality recently and the side looks good on paper. JS on the wing again, thank god!

if we build on what we did last week we'll go close

[BTRD]

Enough of the crap - it is time to put away a good team convincingly. And please no words from the coach before the game.

[Waylander]

I understand Smith has lost 5 kgs while he's been off recovering from his thumb injury. It will be interesting to see how that changes his impact.

Still can't get a game without Klein/Sutton/Cummins

Still can't get a game without Klein/Sutton/Cummins

I still say "BRING BACK MOGHSEEN JADWAT" - Andrew "Matey" Abdo would love him as they're both Proteas.

[Qld Chook]

This is as good as it can get with the cattle available. Pity it took Robbo 20 rounds to figure it out. Hope the boys get rewarded with a good win.

Curious as to why it took him 3/4 of the season to work out he needed to shed more kgs?

[Bates]

What’s going on with Sammy?

[Bates]

Klein in the Bunker again.

FFS!
