Official Match Thread - Sydney Roosters vs Newcastle Knights

[Guest]

Yeah Tommy, I laugh just thinking of his determination to find and kill his father's killer. "Hello, My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die".

I'll double your 16. We turn on the electricity today.

My nerves are shot at the moment.
I'm worried a close match will give me a heart attack, especially if there is any game manager controversy..
I'd rather Cooper Cronk spoke at my funeral than Mitchell Pearce.

You ain't goin nowhere Eddie....we have a competition to win.

That reminds me of Jerrry Seinfelds observation that public speaking is the greatest fear of most people. Death is second.

So most people would rather be in the casket than delivering the eulogy.

Anyway...Go Easts!!

FPN will be in the 17 - Maubs and SST in doubt too- Butcher and Radley 18th and 19th players

I was just looking at your other post guaranteeing 100% that both Ivan Cleary and his son would be at the Roosters in 2020. Since you couldn't get our bench right less than 24 hours before the game, I assume that, like Nostradamus, your prognostication skills work better when you make long-range forecasts.

Maubs and SST passed fit - looks like heavy rain coming that way at Alliance so Robbo has elected to stay with Radley instead of FPN - bit short of a gallop is FPN for what will likely be a arm wrestle in wet conditions- heavy winds and heavy showers expected for the game

LOL JFC . I remember that Seinfeld bit

Only works if the "predictions" are riddles that require tonnes of interpretation.

Shouldve made them watch the saints game.. Just before, a lesson in defence.

[mattyh]

I’m nervous because a determined Newcastle and Pearce cannot be written off.

i wonder if secretly some of our boys want Pearce to be vindicated????

Fergo making up for that hopeless play the ball. Napa looking good and Mitchell over after a switch of play from Cooper Cronk to Keary to Mitchell, cuts through and try time. We can thank Connor Watson for that try as he gave up the penalty for lying all over Mitchell in a play the ball. Six nil our way.

[stringaz]

Nice switch of play cronk didn't want to know about his side, give it to keary

Lucky for us, nervous start by Ponga. Broke the line easily and threw a terrible pass. Also missed an early penalty. Storm has hit coming in from the west. Conditions perfect now for the mud-runner Pearce. Was hoping for dry track. Teeming down.

the weather comes from my way and it was bucketing down with strong winds- early points crucial as well as completing sets /kicking game/defence and low errors and penalties.
