Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Bulldogs

[Paddo Colt 61]

Silly comment.

His boot is an asset that can't be utilised when playing in the centres.

He can also ballplay, has a solid running game and isn't a defensive liability like most halves.

And he's pretty much got them to where they are at this stage. A great buy and top shelf in all aspects of play. But we got a bomber now also.

I can see a win but a scrape in. The Dogs have shown that they know how to win.

Another good one at the Cross is Frigatoria under the Coke sign. BYO too.

Is it a rip-off? Because that's what that word implies in slang LOL. - A place that rips you off.

[Chook2]

Dogs are easily beatable
they just bring energy
we are desperate
we should have best then comfortably early mid season

Ha haven’t heard that - thought it was a term for a place that does fried Italian food

[Andrew Walker]

I get it. I’ll be at Bitter Phew, then will pop into Tap House on the walk to the stadium.

Enjoy.

Now just as interesting have you heard from the limoncello guzzler re your offer of a meet up at tonight’s game? If so and it goes ahead be ready to hear of stories of international abduction, enchanting tales of the Japanese fisherfolk, and his very own marathon running prowess.

Frigatoria is Italian slang for street food. The prices are reasonable and the food good quality. They have very good Arancini and delectable dough balls. Shorter walk to the ground than Stanley St.

You disagree with someone so their comment is silly? Just my opinion. He is certainly not one to set up plays. How many try assists has he got this year? He’s not Top 50 for try assists or line break assists. He doesn’t even make the list. His ‘asset’ of a boot isn’t helping his team score many tries is it?! Sandon is way ahead of him as a 6. His stats will show it too.

Are your eyes glued or painted on?

Go Unas Mate. Bill and Toni’s is rubbish now and the service is shit house. The schnitzels are also paper thin. Can walk to the stadium in 20 mins from Unas and they always have a couple of nice German beers on tap too.

Not on the game night route obviously, but Cafe Nino at Woollahra deserves a vote for best Italian in the area, was always wonderful food, esp the octopus. Claudio is still there I think, lovely man. Big go to place after the races back in the day.

Tonight well, it's a very big game. Biggest of the year for us and by a long way.

But you know, there was a lot to like about last week. The Dolphins are like us, competing for a spot at the bottom of the 8. We made them look as second rate as they are. Away, at Suncorp. That suggests we're a higher class side than that.

Tonight we're back home. Against a team guaranteed to finish top 4. So it'll be a good measurement. They've won 4 of their last 5, and have won 5 games more than us so far this season.

We'll win tonight.

Cafe Nino closed a while back not sure if it’s reopened but the owner or manager i can’t recall but it was your mate Claudio was up on child sexual abuse charges which have since been dropped. I think it’s still closed though. Bit more pricey than Bill and Toni’s all the same.

[Bates]

Gelbisons at Bondi was my favourite Italian go to when I lived in Scum Valley. I'd eat there or have take out 2 to 3 times a week and never got tired of it.

Their Crab Pasta and Mussels were 2nd to none as was the Capricciosa Pizza

The stats don’t lie. Burton is not a 6. I like my 6 to set up the occasional try.

Didn't know that. That must be Claudio jnr, Claudio senior would be in his 90s. Great octopus regardless, and the spaghetti marinara was also incredible

semi final footy in august, can't wait.
i don't think marky's dropped a bomb in a month, he'll go alright and will be a threat with the ball. looking for the forwards to create the platform and for teddy and sammy to do their thing.
dogs are poor value paying 1.83. we're in this big time

I tried to meet ISM in Canberra last year when we were there but he made a poor excuse despite being there not to come and say hi. I don’t expect he’ll come say hi tonight. But that’s okay he doesn’t say to. Some people like to hide behind the keyboard.
