Roosters' running rebuild ready to reap rewards against Warriors

[roosterchook]

On current form I’m dreading an embarrassment like 50-0. We’re not even as good as a bottom of the table reserve grade team as far as form goes so taking on the best I’m expecting a thrashing. Warriors are just too good a team. We won’t contain them with out pitiful forward pack. I think they’ll run riot and end our season. Just my opinion based on form. Even the eels thrashed Manly yet we needed luck to scrape home against them. Warriors are not Manly.

If we drop the ball like normal, don't complete our sets, don't run their forwards around all game, don't give Latrell the ball and give away penalties, then yes we are screwed.

However I live in hope for a win.

Oh we are farked based on form, absolutely no doubt there.

Apparently holding onto the ball and running forward is too difficult for us.

There will be no 50-0. We have pretty close to the best defence in the comp.

We aren’t setting the world on fire but Jesus Christ we aren’t as bad as you reckon. We sit in the top 8 in the nrl and you reckon we are a bottom reserve grade team. Manly also flogged Parra 54-0 btw

Hopefully the building foundations are built with the walls/roof up & the front door is closed.

We would have a lot more cash to buy some decent forwards so yes you could say that. We never needed another half or fullback but we’re getting flogged up the middle. I think keeping Pearce & Gordon and buying some really good forwards if available would have us in a much better position than the struggle we find ourselves in now where our backs can’t make headway because of no go forward.

Struggled to score 3 tries against a dysfunctional Manly side in a very very unimpressive game one has to say - Chooks showed no real improvement at all in attack and one has to really wonder where the tries will come from - Latrell solo efforts or kicks to Fergo the only options one has to say - Keary looks down on form not knowing what his role is anymore with Cronk at half and Tedesco needs to really come good in this game- Warriors will post at least 4 tries or more so can the Chooks score more - I strongly doubt it - 2 at most I suggest. The Tigers attack and even Dogs and Parra's last night looked more likely scoring tries than the Chooks has all this season.

Don't know who is thrusting Keary into SOO contention though as obviously they haven't been watching him play - Keary needs to run the ball that is his game no wrap around 5th tackle plays and Tedesco needs to play both sides in attack and chime in and earn his pay packet.

You do realize Pearce was 800k plus a season, So we are basically paying 200 a season for an pro on and off the field, a role model for the young blokes coming through, not some drunk, repeat offending party boy.

200k well spent in my books

Im thinking the old ball up the jumper runner around, centre a side should be tried along with punting the ball straight back from the kick off forming the wall from tap kicks & from restarts put the ball up high traveling 10 metres allowing your players a chance of coming up with possession.

I’ve got a good feeling here.
Getting away together for the first time and over to NZ where a large proportion of our players hail from against a side expected to win.
Get on

What did I say??
Oh, that’s right
