Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Titans

[Batemans Bay Rooster]

Great game and bad luck Toops thought you had the record . Agree with super but about letting those three tries in , Very disappointing.

there's the runner up award for King Negative..."very disappointing"

Context matters here. It’s too little too late. It was a great chance to really get our FA within reach of the top 8 so currently a win is not good enough. In other words unless it’s a really big win it’s as good as a loss because FA will likely decide the top 8. So I’m holding off any premature celebrations for now. Letting in that 18 points made it that much more unlikely we’re are to make the 8. No reason to jump up and down. 36-0 would have been though.

Yeah 100% agree with all of this, that lapse hurts big time.

The second half is closer to what I have come to expect from us. Not sure what happened in that first half but I bet we never see it again

We took our foot of the peddle and went down a gear once we know we had the win. No thought of for and against though.

Even with a great win you guys are still moaning you should just go and support the Panthers for a few years

So a win is actually a loss

Sounds rather yogi-ism like - "You wouldn't have won if we'd beaten you."

The legendary Yogi Berra had lots of them

lol your a great fan

Off topic but go the Knights. Up 18/12 over the drizzle with a magnificent try to Fitzgibbon at half time . Sorry about that .. and more importantly what a great return to form by the Roosters today ! We'll keep winning all the way through until and including October now . Up the Chooks

Is this where you start a thread about "This win fixes everything" lol

We tend to fold easily the next week.

How about we see how we go against the Broncos in Brisbane next week before you blow too early.

[Rooster1908]

lol your a great fan

Yeah I know and so happy you enjoyed the 3 tries we let in late in the game .But as I said great win

[Qld Chook]

Just finished the replay.

It sucks Toops try was disallowed. No way Tanah gets to him, thought that was a poor call. But the lead up play to Lindsay’s drop over the line was sublime, would’ve loved for him to hold onto that one.

If we start to nail all these opportunities and fix up our lapses we could become a problem for teams. A lot of work to do but fingers crossed. I’ve been highly critical of Robbo’s decision making (which I believe has been warranted) but just want to see us perform to our potential so will try my best to bring some more positivity here, no promises though - progress not perfection

[NorfolkStreetKid]

So Sitili and Angus are not in our optimum 17?

not right now they aren't, both injured aren't they?

[On the Nose]

Am happy for the guys that made the treck up north. 1st time all year we had all our players in their normal positions, ditched the power defence game and spread the ball around. I don't care of we win or lose from here, as long as they continue to entertain.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Missed the game unfortunately, great to hear we were a bit slick in the first 40.

Anyone got a 3-2-1 ?

Time to cheer the girls home for the double.
