      Restart after restart after restart is an embarrassment to the game - dump and run touch footy.

      Go hard Chooks.
      There's been rule changes over the history of Rugby League since 1908, but the Vlandys era has completely changed the fabric of the game. The 6 again farce makes manipulation of games by match officials so easy. It's because Vlandys likes race horses being whipped, and he treats the players the same - 24 tackles in a row on their goal line and on the 4th tackle of the 5th set in a row the attacking team knocks on - then it's a penalty because someone had their foot 5 inches in front of the goal line. Next set a try is scored. Whoopee!

        I reckon we'll brain them. Roosters by 20 or more.

          I remember last time they got us in the forwards in particular bench so our middles will need to step up and we need to play a fast paced game to run their middles around
          if also say Nikora will come back in somewhere

          could go either way but hoping we can push on at least another week or so - we need a fast start to keep their crowd quite

          chooks by 6
          I don’t think the crowd matters. Doesn’t the shitty ground only hold about 2000?!?

            Heard Ronaldo on 360 last night and he came across as arrogant and of the view there is nothing to fear . Not sure who he is marking but let’s hope either toops or Marky give him lesson . This would be so good !

              He’ll be up against Marky. Both physical players, so it should be a good battle. We definitely have an aerial advantage on both sides.

              It’s going to be a cracker. I can’t wait.

                Markys comment last week about Johnstone breaking the record was not on my watch .Big statement but backed it up .I suspect if he is marking Ronaldo he will take the same attitude.

                  Headline at the time stated "Sydney Roosters lock Luke Ricketson calls for an overhaul of the judiciary after being found guilty of striking and banned from playing in the grand final".

                  LOL - that clout would have got him 12 weeks these days.
                  Mea culpa, wrong again, not unusual actually. My only clear memory was the controversy at the time, Ricko was not a dirty player either and his role in the team was significant but he did break Fien's jaw and I had no memory of that.

                      There is no way Ronaldo breaks the record this week he needs 117 tries!

                        Being at the game my main memory of that was them not taking the 2 points on offer at the time when it appeared a game that would go down to the wire. Even though we won by 3 it was very costly as we went score for score with the scores being level 3 times in the match 6-6 10-10 and 16-16 It was until late we got a field goal then a penalty goal
                        I respect all our moderators here. Past present and even future. Always have done and always will do a wonderful job.

                          Amazing recall Andy. I don't remember last season games.

                          As has already been said, "extent of injury" is possiby novel but the qualification might have always applied to the dangerous contact charges. Hynes is an excellent playmaker always seeming to have plenty of time drifting across field so after recent years Elimination disappointments I was cheered by the possibility of his absence.

                              If Marky doesn't stay on his wing, all night...and guard the sideline with his *life*, he'll be the one getting the lesson.

                                So, if there's a wrap around movement that puts an extra man in the opposition backline against the Roosters defence, how far is he allowed to stray from the sideline? 30cm? Sometimes wingers must move in field to cut off an attacking raid. I suggest that the decisions that wingers need to make are far more complex than your ultra-simplistic view that they need to "stay on their wing".
