Glad we're back. Since there's no 6 page forum on how bad we were thought I might get it started. For all those that are going to say we won missed the point. I know I'm gonna get destroyed for this, but that game was pathetic and uninspired. I love Robbo but is team selections have been horrendous since the Keary injury. We need to ring the changes simple as that.

Happy to get any win given our current injury situation.
Most alarming thing from the game was JMoz's defense and how often he was exposed by anyone with speed/footwork. -
Dunno what’s going on with JMoz….Injury, retirement looming…Originally posted by fletch View Post

Listening to Robbo’s post game press conference and how happy he was with the patience the players showed during the game and the way they closed it out at the end is enough to label this a big win!
He said over the last few weeks the players had a habit of trying to score off every play, whereas last week they toughed it out and played patient footy which will leave us in good stead moving forward..
Good win in my opinion!

Correct me if I’m wrong but JMoz is a left centre he was moved to the right and Smith defended on the left maybe that’s the issue? It’s not just him Sitili/Walker are just horrendous Jmoz was moved over to help Walker but the issue starts with Sitili he so easily beaten he needs to go back to the bench and come in 15 min bursts either side of half time Nat Butcher should be starting on the right he had another massive game.Comment

I think his brother’s injury and forced retirement may have had something to do with it. They’re identical twins after all .Originally posted by Serenader View Post

for me the team needs to be something along the lnes of this for next week.
1. teddy (self explanatory)
2. tups (enough said)
3. billy smith (for me a little overhyped by the pen, but had a good game and jmoz has been poor last few weeks)
4. manu (i would like to see him utilised in the same way turbo did for origin. roaming almost like a second fullback.)
5. iku (gets a pass by default, still strong in attack and does the hard runs, just unsafe under high ball)
6. keighran (just give this man a shot)
7. walker (worried everytime he is tackled but he has shown that he is the future half for us)
8. jwh (oh captain my captain)
9. verrills (his forward passes are infuriating but he's still quality)
10. baker (likes to get his hands on the ball. future forward. origin potential)
11. crichton (the reason we won on the weekend, game changed moment he came on)
12. sitili (for me hes best utilised as a bench plaer to come on and run at tired legs but still a very strong player.)
13. rads (self-explanatory)
14. hutchison (begone lam)
15. nat butcher (a very solid bench player)
16. liu (a very consistent player)
17. egan (needs to put on a few kilos but has potential)Comment

Thought the side showed promise and beginning last week against the Dogs, look much more cohesive. Got off to a poor start but didn't wilt and in the last 20, with NQ coming to get 'em, they kept commendable composure and played with confidence. All that with Tedesco absent. Hutch is looking much more confident. Radley, Jarred and Gus inspiring. Fitz said it was the best win of the year and it's hard to disagree.Comment

Jmoz hasn’t been the same since Brett got injured, may be a twin thing idk but he looks to have mentally checked out and just going through the motions.My Roosters Channel - youtube.com/IRoostermanI

Twins, especially identical ones, are always weirdly interconnected mentally. I use to work with identical twins, both of them as gay as Christmas but one was the nicest guy you could ever meet and the other was a complete prick.Originally posted by IRoosterManI View Post
There's a reason Joseph Mengele used to conduct experiments on twins.Comment

How good was Ika.
Since I know that the Chooks are not on the level of the top 4 sides I always feel that they could lose to who ever they are playing. so to win on Saturday was pleasing for me.
Smith, Manu, Hutch & Lam at dummy half all played good.
I would love to find that thread on Goal Kicking & read those posters posts saying goal kicking is not that important. Thats another thing just like you cant win the comp without 2 crack halve you cant win the comp with 3rd & 4th string goal kickers.Comment

Iku certainly knows how to find the tryline. I'm a fan of both Iku and Hutch. Excellent depth players.Originally posted by Mickie Lane View PostComment
