    With Dragons choking it is looking like week 1 will be a brutal forwards encounter regardless. Let's hope we are in a position to rest players in the final round without risking a home final.

      Off topic, but love your avatar QWERTY!

        Sharks have a reasonable run home they might end up in 4th

          Anyone who could even think about sacking him just has no idea.
          If it was a 3 mile horse race the Roosters were sitting just off the pace at the 1 mile mark by the 2 mile mark they were sitting just off the leaders & with 1/2 a mile to go they hit the straight & are sitting on the rails just out in front. Its in sight hopefully they have enough juice in the tank & Cronk, Radley, Mitchell or Tedesco dont get injured.
          Robbo should have been sacked in Round 6 though.

            Call me crazy but I’m confident enough to tell everybody now that on the 30/10/17 I put 8k at 4.50 on the Roosters to win the minor premiership.

            Can you imagine how I felt earlier this year when we had our rocky start to the season lol.

            Full credit to Robbo and our great club..

                    I said it last year but it was a very weak comp last year, we really weren't a top 2 side had it been any other season.

                    We are a much better footy side this year, we'd probably slap last years side by a couple of tries IMO.

                      Didn't win the MP last year and we still blew it...

                      Finals are always a bit of a lottery. We are in a good position.

                          We've been building very well this season haven't we. Took us a while but the team is looking very strong and full of confidence. I'm feeling good too!

                            They are a lottery. A lot worse when we have tickets on ourselves too. But we are certainly a much better side than last year. Credit to Robbo too for admitting that it wasn't the players fault that we stuttered early and the coaches needed to change. They did and it has worked a treat. Now the best team to watch in the league, even if I am slightly biased.

                              When did he admit that it wasn’t the players fault?

                                Yeah, we're a better team this year and the Storm are a worse team. We might be favourites, but we're not odds-on favourites and the only teams who I can't see winning it are the Dragons, the Broncos/Tigers and probably the Warriors.
                                Lot of work to do.
