Match Thread: Sydney Roosters vs Cronulla-Sutherland Sharks @ Remondis Stadium

[Hawkeye]

Cronulla is a bloody tough team to beat at home. They play tough ugly spoiling footy. I will take that win for what it was.

Mini is a bloody enigma. Dont think ive ever seen anyone better under the bomb or take a kick on the full at pace.
And i dont think ive ever seen anyone put down so many inside passes. An enigma.

Good tough win and Maloney showed glimpses.

The answer to your Mini conundrum lies in your summation ...instead of his teammates passing him little inside balls, they should kick it to him !

[rooster_booster]

yes you can, you can tap it on your knee as far as I know as well.

Ben ****wit ikin must have had a direct line to the refs,

You can't tap it on your knee, are you serious this isn't under 9's down at Bondi United.

[elo]

You can't tap it on your shin mate, its a tap kick not a tap shin.

It's an optional-kick and a kick in league is from anywhere below the knee, tapping with the shin is completely fine.

[bondi-boy]

If someone needs to learn how to tackle around the legs it;s Sonny. how many times has he been fended off when he goes for the collar. Reminds me when I was 12.

True enough.
That attempted tackle by him on the young Sharks player who scored the try was a shocker.

[Tommy Smith]

It didn't even touch the shin.

Anyway, our D on that play was diabolical.

Ugly win but needed the 2 points. It seemed like we were rolling through them at will but just can't seem to finish it off. When guerra fell over in the first couple of minutes it said it all really.

Refs were appalling yet again.

Was a struggle listening to ikin carry on all game.

I tell you who worries me & that's RTS.

I just don't think he is going to be anything special at FB. I wouldn't put him at FB, I think the Roosters have to make a big play for Tedesco or Fishiiahi. RTS is sus under the high ball & he is not that big nor tall & can also be marched backwards by opposition teams.

He is not the answer to our FB post Mini. Mini is better than RTS at FB.

Ikin is legitimately clueless. Ive heard Rabbits fans down at Churchills after a long night on the lash make more sense than him.

Think Guerra was ankle-tapped? causing him to stumble along and never really regain his run.

[Johnny.]

To be honest, I'd have RTS at 5/8th if we can pick up a fullback. He's got Freddy style footwork.

[kurtsherlock6]

Actually i'm pretty sure the fullback missed him and he just lost his footing.

Toupou to full back
rts and skd on wing

Could be a sensation there if he can catch the bomb Different proposition catching bombs from fullback as opposed to winger He certainly would be sacry chiming into the line with a head of steam

Ive only had 11 blondes so far. it's not till you get to 17 that your drunk. That's the same amount of virgins you get when you go to paradise, straight from the Quran.
