Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Storm

[HunchoRooster]

Absolutely piss weak. Deserved nothing out of that game and that’s what we got. A fitting way to put a line through our season.

[milanja]

Well the ref did us as many favours he could of to win the game, but a reserve grade Storm team still too good.

shame the roosters way isn’t to be head strong.

[Fairfax]

Small point. Harry Grant copped a boot to the head with 15 to go. He lay down and didn't get involved in the next play. What was the independent doctor doing? That and six again seems arbitrary.

[Chook2]

Well that was the roosters way
you were correct robbo
they delivered the roosters way

[Vasco]

A player like DCE would have steadied the ship for us and we would be celebrating the two points.

Angus and Tupou cost us the game with their errors.

[Fairfax]

What a frustrating game in so many ways.

Melbourne Storm delaying the game by blocking the halfback putting the ball into the scrum and then Adam Gee lecturing them about it whilst also not blowing time off himself with 4 minutes left was such a stark reminder of how amateur the officiating of this game is at times.

I'd love to see overturned rulings on challenge recorded as ref errors. Sides are taking advantage of six again with two minutes to go... needs to be looked at.

[HunchoRooster]

Angus Chrichton get back on the shrooms !!!! Literally got his new contract and has put his cue in the rack. Hopefully the Wallabies offer him too much he can't refuse

Rinse and repeat with old Angus. They say he’s inconsistent but I disagree. Plays like an immortal in a contract year, plays like a reserve grader every other year. Another David Fifita.

Walker and Gus take a bow for your ****ing shithouse performances.

Toops had too many brain fades tonight also, needed to put his foot out twice, and butchered the match winner.

[mightyrooster]

Very disappointing. We scored enough points but let in a few very soft tries that ultimately cost us the game.

.7th game thrown away.No respect for anything.Only had to mark one bloke.Grant and they let him do whatever he wanted..they are Titans level stupid and season over.

[roosterchook]

Walker’s 7 tackle set and Crichton's knock on conceded 2 tries. Thats 3 tries in 3 games Walker has conceded. Crichton knocks on 5 metres out second dropped ball tonight. Trent needs to demote both Crichton and Walker if he wants to win more games. Bad decisions and errors cost us the game. And Hugh’s was out. I blame the loss on Crichton and Walker’s stupid mistakes.

[kakaruk]

Troops cost us the game with that bombed try imo Gus was awful Sammy rusty we should have won this one good game though that’s the season well and truly done for us probably the storm as well Hughes is gone for the year

[Chook2]

****ing errors from senior players
toops with 4 crucial errors off the kick off and missed try and Angus just cannot hold onto the ball
not to mention the useless middles watching harry grant instead of the runner - never seen so many soft tries

what’s our record v the storm?
7 lost games we could - should have won this year now
honestly How does Teddy stick around this team he tries so hard and the rest of the players just **** up around him

don’t even want to do a 3.2.1 as the season is done
3. Collins - best game of the year for the big guy
2. maybe Teddy
1. maybe Whyte

again errors at bad times and big ones form our senior players hurt us - thanks robbo we certainly did the roosters way

Brains player rating??????

[Jacks Fur Coat]

Helluva game, just disappointing we didn't get the cash. I guess now it's just not our year, as we kind of suspected.

The boys gave it a great shove. Harry Grant showed why he's one of the modern day greats.

Bugger.

I watched from home and the Fox coverage became unbearable. Cooper has well and truly confirmed the stories he is moving on from us. Rode the Storm home hard. Crikey even Thurston on 9 gave us a fairer go! That's saying something.
