    Well it’s obvious that the weight of being favourite for a game doesn’t suit us. How often are we heavily backed to win only to lose it due to dumb errors and dumb penalties? It seems like it’s part of the teams psyche...

      Maaaaaaaaaaate , we agree on something.

      I'm sticking with Robbo, but I think Coggy makes a good point about Trent having a blind spot when it comes to his captain.
      I think we need a different dummy half.

        The team has more talent than it needs to win most games but zero inspiration. There is more to coaching than just teaching them how to run around the park.

          Coggy I told you gettid rid of Pearce wouldn't 'fix' anything

          Now you want to go after our most succesful head coach since Jack Gibson.

          I hope the club have a little more back bone and see the errors of their ways.

            There was heaps of ball movement/off loads from the Roosters forwards last night.

              No he's not.
              Can always rely on the get rid of Robbo thread after a loss.

I don’t mind the errors as long as the team is using the ball which is the case. The Roosters will continue to improve and will be ready to go by season end.
                False hope.

                  Do you think Trent has got this team up for the important semi final
                  games since 2013 ? Do you think he has addressed our error rate effectively for the last few years ? How about addressing our dumb penalties ? Our fat lazy 9 who has been stifling our attack with poor decision making and atrocious service? His embarrasing use of the bench at crucial times ? Yep, keep telling yourself Trent is the Messiah, personally id rather see our team get past the semis

                    2018 Right in the mix.

                    He is better than at least 15 other coaches according to those stats.

                      Let’s not forget he’s had the top 3 rosters in all of the season’s you mention,apart from 2016...
                      So comparing him to other coaches with less talented sides is a little unfair..
                      Also 2017 was one of the biggest choke jobs in the history of the game,especially when you compare our roster to the Cowboys and the lessons we should’ve learnt from 2014 and 2015..
                      Put that all in perspective and Trent is nothing special in my opinion,athough he talks really well and has the supporters and media fooled half the time.

                        All i see is 1 Premiership, no other GF's with some great rosters.

                          When the poor discipline, which includes dropped balls, happens for the last 4 years, then yes the coach has to share the blame. He does not put enough emphasis on ball security. If he did it would have been fixed by now.

                            Absolutely he talks well and is probably a top bloke. He is just an average coach blessed with a very good team. People on here were carrying on like we were flying aftwr last weeks win against a depleted Warriors side but yet again we failed to get up against a team that was barely FG standard on paper.

                              The PF last year was a debacle. Let's start with Toupo on the bench for 70 minutes, I am still to find a logical reason for this. Our discpline let us down badly. Dropped balls on the first after scoring points ! Kicking out on the full not ONCE but TWICE!!!! Haven't seen it done twice in a game even in junior footy in the last 30 years. Some problems are recurring and are not being addressed.

                                Well its the which came first the egg or the chicken.
                                The best coaches have the best players thats why they are the best coaches.
                                Which coach in the NRL has a better record than what Robbo has had since he has been at the Roosters?
