Slightly better resume than Mitchell Pearce.

In my "there's gotta be an investigation into this!" moment where I investigated the refs bias against us, this was one of the most shocking and egregious stats I found...
Since 2007 our penalty count record in out of Sydney matches is as follows...
W 6
D 4
L 45
Take out the timid Titans environment and at NZ NQ Brisbane Melbourne Canberra and Newcastle it's...
W 4
D 3
L 42
If that isn't blatant cheating and home town anti Roosters reffing I don't know what is.

So it's practically in the bag like last time right?
Issac Luke is more important to them and could wreck us up the middle so if he's out I think we win.
The only difference is that Tupou, Manu and Radley are out this time... oh and we are in NZ... so we can expect an even bigger whipping.

Originally posted by mattyh View Postseriously im a bit outraged at whats transpired this year, i admit i bought a bit into the hype albeit not initially, i am a pearce fan boy, not going to deny it, i felt he was treated very harshly by some on here and what he did right he seemed to given grudging credit, he had his faults no doubt , but his running , passing and defence were for the most part far above average kicking game wasnt bad but off fied he was poor, friend ive never really felt he was that good anyway, hell i thought segeyaro was superior a year or 2 back prob still do, that says something, now cronks been given 9 rounds and the team is worse this year then last, nobody can deny it, we dont even look close to the top teams this year, our defence is good, i just feel cronk is a real fish out of water at the roosters, hes such an organised disciplined player who was meant to bring structure to our chaos instead the chaos has somewhat engulfed him , pearce seemed able to work within the chaos better if it makes sense and he and keary were great together, i just cannot in no way see cronks stable influence in the team bar a kick or two and given hes been paid a million a year i expect more, maybe this seems unreasonable but blaming pearce for the semi final loss is unreasonable too, its not all cronks fault but hes not proving to be much of anything bar the odd good kick , hell luke walsh was good for that , maybe the forward pack is done, maybe the hookers past his use by date, maybe the new fullback s a fish out of water too at least hes trying, i dont know, but im thoroughly pissed about it, hell i got foxtel installed to watch all roosters games this year expecting re runs of 2013, sadly disappointed and i cant see it changing cronk aint in the same breath as a fittler or smith or lockyer or johns and sadly appears another melbourne player who appears far better then he actually is under concentration camp bellamy / smith , and i wouldnt mind so much if it wasnt eating up a million a year for a 34 yo, sadly im shaking my head, a bit in disbelief , this really sucks.
