Roosters v Storm

[roosterproud]

This ones is here for the taking

[bondi.boy]

I must say seeing Ethan King in the centres fills me with no confidence,I would’ve preferred Marky Mark in the centres and Junior Tupou on the wing..

Anyway Robbo knows best.

Just testing King under big match conditions...in rebuilding year.
Robbo has to get a finals standard team ready for March 2026.

I would swap EButch for the concreter

[Lydon]

If . Robbo knows best, he wouldn't have chosen Chad over Sandon last week, only to reverse it this week, showing lasts week selection was a bungle

Yes good point..

I should change that to “Robbo know a lot more than me”..

[Lydon]

I would swap EButch for the concreter

A lot of us said this before the Sharks game last week,sadly the coach thinks otherwise..

[bondi paul]

So the Gee String appointed as ref whilst the NRL’s very own domestic worker Butler serving from the Bunker.

How did Sandon Smith " get better " if he didn't play last weekend ?????????????????????????????? - Just like Sitilli wasn't given permission to look around, and 2 or 3 weeks later he announces he is off to the Dogs for 4 years.

Anyway, let's hope for a miracle on Thursday night.

GO ROOSTERS.

Robbo dropped the ball last round so it's only fair to lol@Robbo

Chad got worse.

Great to see Wong back. He was listed as a R23 return so that is a huge plus with Rads out.

Hugo on the reserves list so a slim chance if he passes a fitness test maybe.

King the unknown but probably less disruption than moving Marky and bringing in another wing.

I like the team but the forwards need to lift.

Slightly confident.

They were completely dominated by the Sharks forwards.

I thought Egan went ok against the Sharks. Did a pretty good job filling in the centres.

Ebutch is there as a centre back up if yet another of our backs goes down with an hia or injury.

[roosterchook]

We should have kept Dom until the end of the year, now we have no deapth.

Dom’s defense is no worse than Walker’s.

[GC6]

Kind of hoping Foketi swaps with Wong. I love his enthusiasm and I rate him as one of our better forwards this season.
praying for big games from our origin forwards. They definitely didn’t play like originally forwards last week and it’s frustrating watching on.

[ism22]

The Drizz are without NAS, Munster and Pappy.

Not saying this makes it an easy win but IMO if we can't win this week then we're farked anyway. It's one for the taking and I hope the boys can put on a show.

[Bates]

I feel much better with Sammy playing on the right. Imo he's a better 7 than 6 who needs to work on his game management.

Both edge forwards need to keep an eye out for our 2 small halves when we're defending. Sammy especially who's been isolated and steam rolled on numerous occasions.

[HunchoRooster]

Good to see the Chad madness has ended. Although makes it even more perplexing he was picked last week. Huge farrk up from the “guru”.

Great to see Wong back however I don’t know why he’s starting lock and Foketi remains on right edge. Foketi has been awesome in the middle with his footwork and been largely quiet on an edge. Wong was caught out in the middle in previous seasons but has found career best form on an edge. Baffling.

I haven’t been impressed with King in what I’ve seen in Cup or his sole NRL game but at least he’s getting picked in his position and we aren’t plugging a forward in the outside backs like Robbo is prone to doing.
