Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Raiders

[The Lip]

Markets have shifted we are a firming favourite.
Easts $1.77
Raiders $2.10 (Sportsbet).

Could be the Fogarty poss out?

For that shift in the market you would have to think so.

I think we'll win well tonight. These guys have a good thing going, I was wrong when I said some weeks back this season was done.

Can't wait for this.Big thing both teams share in bucket loads is spirit. The Chooks energy and spirit it at a level I haven't seen for a long time. The way they flock to the man who forces the error, puts on the hit, or scores the try is next level. If they can bring this enthusiasm and get off to a strong start, I think we win. Go the Mighty Roosters.

Win and bye would be damn great to jump up the ladder.

But better we almost knocked off the 1st placed team, pissed off the gummies so knocking over another top 4 side would send a message.

Many of us have under estimated our team this year.

[A Country Member]

Great test tonight. Have the feeling Canberra won’t travel well.
Want the Origin boys to carry the winning aura into the team. Can see Big Red going after Lindsay, so want Linz to show him who’s boss. Easts to win by 22.

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Fogarty out, Ethan Sanders to half.

Benny and Foketi into run on team.

I think we are past the stage where just being competitive is a good result. With what we have achieved so far this season and with the squad we have, Canberra should be worried and us fans should be confident of a win.

I'd say we've also proven we can play a far more enterprising brand of footy than Canberra. Not bagging them but Sticky's style is to ambush teams and disrupt their flow. As such I think they're 50:50 against any time because the ambush is either on or it's not.

If it's not then you can guarantee that Sticky will be chewin' on that nicotine hard and preparing a full mad depresser, which is 1/2 the fun of beating them.

Benniah the starter with Watto benched

[ism22]

Marky Maaaaark!!!!! Fark yeah... the young Italian delivers again. Bravo, forza!!!!

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? It's Marky Mark. What a leap for that try!

[DP1990]

Bloody hell, Toops ...

[fletch]

Ball control is terrible inviting the Raiders onto our goal line.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

These errors are adding up. Ffs

[QWERTY]

The bunker is taking the piss
