Roosters v Knights Match Discussion

[Guest]

It's about darn time that the NRL does something about these diving soccer fairies.

Not bad so far ...a step in the right direction

[sydroosters]

How disgraceful was that lay down from nathan ross, pure filth. The NRL has to try and get rid off it.

Guerra lol
Nothing seems to change

Thought he looked a little out of sorts early but some good grabs & metres so a decent half for mine...

Brilliant team try!! The Knights are no pushover either. They're trying hard.

[Spirit of 66]

You get the sense that they desperately want to play some razzle dazzle, but are waiting to get an unassailable lead first. I hope they do. If they don't they might lose.

8 games and 28 minutes. About time he scored a point for the money he's getting. It does however relieve Hastings from having ALL responsibilities and is playing well, Hastings.

Great grubber kick Friend for Aubbos try. Where's that wallet idiot saying grubbers are not worth it?

[manbearpig]

I wouldn't say we are far from fixed but its obvious the inclusion of Pearce and JWH have helped make a MASSIVE turn in the right direction. Hastings alongside Pearce is a much improved player also.

[sydroosters]

Pearce's control and direction really helps us.

[John Corey]

Great defensive effort. Funny what happens when you get your players back and get some stability in the side.

Oh.....In the 53rd minute Guerra passed the ball.

I got the impression tonight that they won for the coach. That all the team lifted their game for the coach. I don't believe it had anything to do with the return of players. The entire team was really focused on good ball handling and good tackling and tried to get the basics right and above all they had patience. Even if our boys were not back I think we would have won by 30. Awesome games from SKD, Mitchell, Hastings & Ferguson who all played last week were different players tonight. JWH wasn't on for that long. Pearce's kicking alone didn't win it. The difference for me was the coach stood up for the team this week and copped a fine for it and they paid him back tonight.

Congrats on Ferguson's triple try treat and Hasting's goal kicking.

Yes it's also the Knights so nothing to get too exited but unlike them that have been wooped by every other team bar 1 or two, most of our games that we lost were by one or two points but if of at least one of those three that we were missing would have been on the park, we may have one a few more but let's move forward now...

That was a great match from Mitchell Pearce

[elo]

Pearce's deep kicking is what we have been missing, Knights pretty much started every set 10 metres out from their line.
