SQUAD FOR ANZAC DAY v DRAGONS

[bondi.boy]

There was a time, when Cooper, Gasnier, Merrin, Young jnr etc were playing that we 'never' won these ANZAC Day games.
We've slowly clawed back to near even.
It'd be good to win another one.

[bondi.boy]

Impossible they are humans.
Are you & Mrs BB attending the game?

Hmmm, maybe change 'no' to 'very few'.
Let 'no tries outside our wingers' bit stand though.
We're not going to this game, not fully vaccinated yet.
Even fully vaccinated, one can still contract Covid 19.
NZ has just paused the travel bubble with Aust...think because of people who left quarantine in Sydney and could have covid and have travelled all over.
Get our secod jab in Jun.
Hopefully many of our population will be vaccinated by July.
There are 3 home games after that...July etc.
We'll be attending them.
We attended every ANZAC Day game at the SFS in the 30 years it was standing.

Blue Jumper for 100 year anniversary of the RAAF - Formed March 1921



So what have souffs got to do with the RAAF ? What's the connection - I don't see why they wear a light blue jersey????.
Is there an RAAF base in Redfern , or is there an airstrip there?

Mascot.
Light blue jersey and red and green socks.
Not sure who their fashion guru is.
Anyway, lots of set restarts flew in their
favour after half time and they emerged victorious.

Maubs will be delivering the trophy at the game, representing the Roosters.

Yeah was just about to post this. Looks like that Tapuhu guy is gonna debut tomorrow which is really exciting.

[Big Dog]

Even if he was ready I don't think a 17 year old centre is going to really change things. I am looking forward to seeing him when it is time though.

Prolly around Origin time against one of the bottom teams.

SST out. Taupuhu drops out with him, JWH starting with Baker onto bench

[zac]

it's a good team and much better than expected a week ago

[Spirit of 66]

So who kicks? Teddy? Walker? Hutch? Jarred?

Thanks TG. Makes the game just that bit more challenging in the middle for the Roosters. As to who kicks, you'd have to think it would be Tedesco if the last few weeks is any guide.

That Riff team song has to be worst around -something about mighty Panfers - mmm I recall they had another song though the Riff - something like -lets all hear it now for Penriff they know how to play the game etc.

I got to know all the League team songs by the listening to the late great Frank Hyde on 2SM.

Best NRL team song - Here Comes the Roosters- Sydney Roosters

Best AFL team song - Oh were from Tigerland - Richmond Football Club

The great Frank Hyde. “If it’s long enough and high enough and it’s straight between the posts”. Loved listening to him.

Guessing. Let's hope we play well enough that it doesn't come down to who gets the most conversions...
