    The problem with that ploy is our forwards aren’t playing footy,they are just running one out to set up the predictable play..
    Gee Robbo annoys me,he has a Ferrari backline and is wasting it with his stubborn boring same crap play week after week!

    Some offloads in our forwards and we will rip sides to shreds. We have always been too conservative.

      Some adjustments in our attack and it will turn our season around.

      Plus those adjustments will make opposition sides work harder and therefore be less damaging in their attack against us.

      One of those adjustments is an easy one to implement but I dont know if Robbo has the balls to do it.

        The forwards coach at the roosters should get the flick and i don't give a rats who it is,i suspect its fitzy but im not sure.The pack is not performing its the same as last year hit and miss every week there are issues that need to be addressed and quickly or we can kiss this season goodbye.its not just friend he has to change or get the boot ,there are players playing out of position,the game plan as far as i can see is run towards the opposition try to gain a few meter's then give it to the backs for a sweep play.The only forward that we have that can hit the line and offload is jared and hes well past his best Cronk must be wondering what hes got himself into oh well ,on to next week i wonder what they will dish up next week rocks or diamonds.You wouldn't back them in a fit this is not a premiership winning team at the moment they have a long way to go the bookies got it wrong with the chooks this year imo we are a big bopper or two short imo.

          Come to think of it the forwards play similar to Fitzy,head down and run without an offload..
          If Robbo is too scared to drop a player than his staff will stay the same forever..

            They finished 2nd last year & they are 3 from 6 no one is going to get the flick. I agree with you that the pack is not performing though but its early days.

              One would think offloads would be the order of the day with ted and keary sniffing around the ruck.

                  I think it’s timely to bump this thread as a reminder of just how fickle some fans can be.

                  Also once you’ve waved the white flag you’re captured and held behind enemy lines for the duration of the war. There’s no retracting it. You can’t just say sorry, I didn’t mean it. War’s over for you.

                    I think we’ll likely make the 8 but not the top 4 but regardless I renewed my Supporter’s Membership because I think the club is trying to is give us every chance possible of winning. and we should get behind them by being members. Development of players like Radley & Mitchell are great to see.

                      What a load of bullshit. Robinson got carried by SBW? Show me any success that Cronk had without Cameron Smith, remember the 40-0 grand final Smith didn’t play lol

                          Doesn't mean they're never wrong of that they should be untouchable. If you want to state to you agree with him then back up your point.

                          That's a lame post by your standards ROC.
                          R6 is right Roc, after all he/she is the king / queen of lame posts so would know one when they see one lol

                            We'll make the four. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if we come from the clouds and be minor premiers again. We are only a couple of wins off it now and if we get our act together soon then it's very achievable.

                              Thats the easy part..lets see how Robbo and the boys figure out how to bow out again.

                                I wouldn't be surprised at all to bomb out the week before the GF as usual.
