Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Storm

[Bruce Pickett]

I love how copping the worst call of the year has shamed Klein into giving us a fair go.

1000%.

[Waylander]

I feel so sick watching this I can barely drink my beer.

[Bates]

E Butcher is out of his depth. His 2nd half game time should be limited

[nayfo]

If we start the half the same way finished it we go on to win this game.
The start in this next half is vitally important. Melbourne don’t look that great.

Corey Allen having a great game from the origin legend

The bunker should be able to rule on those situations. The entire world saw the knock on all but the corrupt crook ref whose mind was always on giving storm a penalty. Rugby League has become so fixed and backwards since Vlandy. We exit with our heads held high losing to a cheat ref.

[Noosa Rooster]

It will be interesting what we get from Klown in the second half. He’s even up so we scored, so now back to regular bias.

It didn't last long.

Roosters robbed!
Klein cannot continue refereeing in the NRL now, he must be sacked.

That knock on by Grant was right in front of him.
Commentators are calling it "blatant".

Roosters should take legal action.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Brilliant comeback by the boys. As soon as Klein put the whistle away we won the footy battle.

Its been made harder than it should be with some sub standard reffing, as many of us feared.

The lead up to their penalty goal was three shockers...Warbrick pot plant penalty, phantom 6 again then Vics great fair shot penalised.

Then the blatant knock on right in front of Klein, and another pot plant penalty and gifts their second try.

We are playing well and Storm are still there to be beaten. Proud of the courage from the boys and flair they are playing with.

Who knows but Klein is so far out of his depth anything could happen.

The bunker often does intercede, just not on our behalf.

[MCMLXVI]

Dereliction of duty and such complete incompetence would get anyone else in any other field of employment, terminated immediately. There is something very rotten happening for all to see.

[BraveTheWorld]

Man Melbourne are ordinary. One or two of our backs in this side and we’d win well.

We can win from here but have to start well and find a bit more goal line defense.

I’ve got no idea how the Storm weren’t warned of a sinbin after about 7 rapid fire 6-agains. Absolute mess of a ruck and we weren’t getting any until Klein absolutely butchered that knock on call.

Would just be the blind leading the blind.

Sam had a blow up at halftime there. Reading into he seemed frustrated he wasn’t getting ball (pure speculation)

[mightyrooster]

Apparently Klown apologised bro Teddy , what's joke

Did he really?
