Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Dolphins

[Mickie Lane]

When the Chooks are on we are deadly.
Next week Roosters v Dogs a 1 point win to us will do me.

[SamKerrSimp]

Best win this year,

Arguably our 3 best wins of the year came at Suncorp

[Chook2]

Hell what a win
phins tries to aim up but our boys dominated theirs
can’t bellieve it wasn’t 10 for the contact on Wong it was direct contact to the head which you should have duty of care coming onto make the tackle
3. halves were brilliant 5 the assists and also Walker with 10/11 kicks shows what we missed with Walker injury last year
2. back 5 were all brilliant 7 tries from them and huge mtss
1. Middles Whyte made over 200mtr in only 50 min, Spencer made over 140mtr and Collins 120 - we dominated their middle

next up dogs who we should have beat last time - another must win

[QWERTY]

Fantastic win. Really aimed up tonight. Teddy has got to win the Dally M. Sam Walker on fire. Leniu and Whyte were outstanding. Egan Butcher has had three good games in a row. Only downside I noticed was that our right side defence could have been better.

[SamKerrSimp]

Did Spencer come on in the second half? I watched the game on mute at the pub so missed any half time injury update

Yes. He left the field at around 50 minute mark.

[Inflictor]

Defence great.
Attack great.
Hugo's kicking game excellent.
Sammy showing us what Sammy does. Some were saying to piss him off after his first game back. FFS
We need to offer Marky a 5 year contract.
Gussy back to his beast mode.
Collins same.
Whyte never lost his beast mode.
Leniu had his meathead moment but probably had his best game for us.
Toia had his best game since SOO.
Teddy needs a statue outside the stadium and added to that painting.
DCE can stay where he is.

3/ Sammy
2/ Marky
1/ Hugo

Teddy probably deserves something but he has enough points.

[Teddy]

Our forwards were dominant I’ve been critical of Spencer and Collins but tonight they were enormous Leniu just needs to remove the emotion from his aggression, Gus was excellent no slapping contests just ran straight and hard made his tackles, and held the pill.

Egan may have turned the corner with his discipline/handling but I’ve always been a fan just play tough son that’s your MO run hard tackle hard and hold the pill.

Hope Wong is Ok, Foketi and Radley love the starch in defence more of it we will need it next week, right side edge defence has some issues Toia and Mark have me worried every time teams go
down there, a little bit of a disconnect should be easily sorted.

Teddy/Walker/Hugo Brilliant

Smith/Toops solid all round.

Absolutely. We have played so well there this year.

[Thirteen]

Sack Robbo!!

[SamKerrSimp]

Yes. He left the field at around 50 minute mark.

Thanks, so no injury probably just giving the other guys a go while we dominated

[SamKerrSimp]

Absolutely. We have played so well there this year.

We must have a good record up there in the last 10-15 years I think we've lost in magic round only 1 or 2 times no wonder the Broncos ducked playing us up there for so many years

[ism22]

Pop the Champagne bottles boys what a game fantastic absolutely pulverising these chumps.

Loving it!!! Gonna shake a few cheeky cocktails tonight to celebrate.

we're on a good trajectory. big game next week

Rads was great tonight. When Donoghoe was trying to be the man, Rads went after him and Donoghoe crawled back under his rock quick smart.I hope we see more of that mongrel dog approach from the Roosters, just be a little bit smarter. Our house erupted, when Spencer scored, he's loose but that was what I want from him ( without the sin bin, which was a joke)
