  • Is Hutchison better than Flanagan?
    We have to get it right first game.
    What about Lam?

      We need seasoned professionals in every position.
      Saw Cordner on tv last night introducing.
      BMoz as our new left centre.
      He's a seasoned professional.
      Trent will train him in the finer points of left centre/our lethal left side.

      More of a worry for me is halfback.
      No Cronk...but we have the next best thing...Cronk coaching the halves.
      But who is the closest halfback to " a seasoned rofessional"?
      In none of our 3 recent premiership seasons have we "burst out of the blocks at full speed". Robbo makes sure the team builds during the year into playing their best footy at the end of it.

      The dragons on the other hand "burst out of the blocks at full speed" every season.

      • We are slow starters but thats because we lose players every year being so successful intern bumping up player values!

          I have never seen Tuipulotu play Have you? I see he has been a schoolboy star but has he actually played in any form of Rugby League in Australia or the NRL? He is an 18 year old kid, away from home in NZ for the first time..... do you really think he HAS THE JUMP on anyone at this stage? Please tell me more.

            In saying that there no reason to panic and rush to sign someone. They’ll just shift everyone in a spot.. or out a spot in Angus case. And then deal before the June 30 deadline.
            Maybe we don't have spare cash and that's why they let him go?

              Hutchinson is only there to fill holes.

                In 2019 we did...well except for the first game against Souths and their lucky kicks.
                Then we were on fire...won next 8 in a row.
                Bursting.
                In 2020 we need to do the same, because with no Latrell and no Cronk to rescue us in matches when the going gets tough...we can't afford to get left behind ..and get into the position of having to win 9 in a row to make the 4.
                We need to be up in the top 4 all season in 2020.

                    Some people believe supporting the Roosters
                    is a matter of life and death, I am very disappointed
                    with that attitude. I can assure you it is
                    much, much more important than that.

                      Do you reckon we have filled $1m+ already on other players?
                      ..it’ll be interesting to see

                      • I think with what we've got Brett Morris at centre is our best option, I am really disappointed for Billy Smith and the roosters, was so looking forward to seeing him have a crack . major blow

                            However Robbo has made it very clear they wont be going to the market to find a left centre....so it looks like they are going to search deep within the rookie ranks

                            Ikavalu is not the answer. While his efforts are tremendous with ball in hand his one on one defence is a nightmare.
                            Don’t be too harsh on The Sharks. They don’t have a coach.

                              nothing like 17 sweaty men to get you all fired up hey 13?

                              Not that there’s anything wrong with that.
