Robbo takes a pot shot at the cowboys

[chook 56]

just finished watching the whole Robbo interview from today's captain's run, he touched on quite a few topics, but the most interesting one was regarding the salary cap and paying the price for success, he confirmed that we wouldn't be able to keep the whole team together going forward, going to be interesting early next year when the re-signings start to occur and who hasn't got a new deal yet.

This is what I have been trying to point out to people I know. 2014/15 will be our best shot at another title because of the cap & the value of our squad increasing because of the success.

Hopefully the harmony keeps on going & we can keep most of the current guys on board, maybe at a less than market rate.

What a legend.

I'm so confident that we're going to smash them.

Their loser mentality, with the conspiracy bullshit, will come back to haunt them when the going it's tough after 20 minutes and they start looking for excuses.

We're going to be so fired up. Roosters by 22.

The fact that you are confident worries me Tommy!

[Vasco]

Yeah we get the rub of the green.

Haha

I'm just so ****ing pumped. I live in Townsville, a place where 90% of Cowboys 'fans' wouldn't be able to tell you who's who between Matt Scott and James Tamou.

They're the biggest bunch of fairweather bogan wankers and we've/I've been copping shit all week.

So I just can't wait to roll them on the field. They've done A LOT of talking off the field and I reckon we're going to do all ours on the field.

We'll hit them like a freight train, because that 42-10 victory has ensured they've no idea what the real Roosters are capable of.

I'm just watching it now too. I love this sentence, when asked to comment on the trashy photo of Mini "We respect the people around us". Man I hope Karma Kramer comes crashing down on the Cowboys tomorrow night..they are my least liked team from QLD.

A win with all hands on deck for next week sounds great..

[Johnny.]

It all depends on the odds. If they're juicy then we could see a cowboy doing the dog.

Robbo was not taking a pot shot at the cows just stating facts and if it were a pot shot it was more directed at news limited - smart man

Lol

We need Tommy 'the kiss of death' to be miserable and say we'll lose by 30.

Gibbsy and Brandy were claiming Robbo was a bit precious with his comments on Mini. Didn't even mention his other comments.

[Salvatori Grubber]

I'm sure Robbo's position on that Mini thing was intended to fire-up the boys.

[redwhiteblue]

Have a guess who owns the paper?

No prizes.

Any word on the bitchy Bulletin today? I knew Karma Kramer would come back to bite them. Instead of perhaps of placing a photo on the front page of their own team in a show of support, they chose to take a cheap shot a Mini, a man who came back from a dehabilitating almost career ending injury to continue to lead his club and win grand finals. Being jealous and spiteful towards others does not bring you a reward. Winning a premiership is not anyone's God given right so Nth Qld better stop their bleating and soon..3 years now of this just says they were just not quite good enough..I am amazed at how some sections of the media are portraying them as 'good sports' and 'humble'. I've heard more complaints, backstabbing and nasty comments coming from their camp than any of those bogan reality TV show competitors and its only been 12 hours!

Oh how dare a boss defend his staff? Oh, MR I am not a violent aggressive girl by any means but I do understand why people want to start throwing stuff at the TV at this time of year..Today I feel like I follow the team who stole candy from a starving toddler... We should be proud we follow the team we do, not made to feel bad. I even overheard some girls bitching at work yesterday about how arrogant Roosters fans are...coming from Canterbury fans too..God help me this next couple of weeks....They didn't know I was in the photocopying room..I barely said anything after we won last year as I had a seriously ill family member and didn't feel like celebrating too much. All I did was take in chocolates and lollies for people in the office and just stayed quiet. This year however, I'll do the dance of the seven veils in Martin Place if we win...Loud and proud I'll be this year..no more politeness...
