Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Sea Eagles

[milanja]

Great start to the season by the boys. We looked fitter, stronger, faster all round.

How good was Bmoz? And Teddy the man.

Want to watch replay later though...always miss stuff at the game.

what was the crowd figure out there furry?

[Jacks Fur Coat]

15 grand odd....apparently

[Headless Chook]

he was not impressive, unless you watched a different game to me

I thought he did his job, particularly considering he went from 5/8th, to hooker and then back to half back. His defence was solid, his kicking game was sound as well.

Exceeded my expectations they did today. Manly are pretty ordinary but with all the noticeable fatigue so far, the Roosters did well to go for 80 minutes.

We've made a call on the goalkicking and have to manage it.

Yeah thought similar. I'd like to see him back himself and take the line on a bit more. But when you are scoring 40 pts plus you just need to feed the runners. Im guessing he is doing what Robbo wants.

Dudes dont think anyone gets a shock that goal kicking would be a biggie.
Just me man but I've kinda always thinking a bit too much faith in junior Lam. as a walk in start...that's me but.
Fantastic win but Manly were at $11 so no massive....but still great putting that win in the books.

Figure the goal kicking and season looks sweet.

Which bookie had Manly @ $11?

What is JWH actually charged with?

maybe i watched a different game to everyone else, we had plenty of good performers , a little rust. but lam was either a) absent or b) out of sync , a super impressive kicking game is more then what we were looking for. but maybe it is me. thought he was bog average.

What is JWH actually charged with?

having a beard. being jwh. a shaved head. being a bully. having a tattoo. tackling too hard. looking mean. hurting manly players. hurting manly fans feelings. saying bad words.

i think he got charged with all that before he came on. the list gets worse from there.

[mattyh]

Miss a few weeks or months depending on the severity of the dislocation. - Lussick for Friend but who for Keighran ? plus JWH may be missing next game

that is disappointing. he may offer something, looks a big body for a half, obviously has some skill. i presume he tackles well and despite the miss had the most natural action of our goal kickers.

breathing

Maybe at halftime.

They were at $3.50 at kickoff

I didn’t really notice him either, that also means he mustn’t have made any mistakes.

he doesn’t play smart football al the time, and you should never give away a penalty in possession, but to be put on report, there has to be a charge, striking possibly?
