That is the saddest story Ive heard in a while! In fact I probably wouldnt even admit it...games go for 80 minutes.

Oh well, shoot me!! At least I was at the game. Head start to the trains. Kicking myself I didn't stay though but who would have thought we could do it with 5 mins left to score 2 tries and not coming close to doing it for 35. Up the Roosters!!!

G I didn't take you for an off to the carpark supporter...I saw people leaving with about 8 to go around me and thought "fark the boys deserve better than this". Sure they were pretty abyssmal in the second half but even if only for a second the sharks game from last year came into your mind you knew they were a chance.

I expect better from you from now on mate

LMFAO you sound like you're gonna cry bigboy.

I left with 5 to go as well. I heard the roars but I thought they were Souths tries. We were abysmal but I'll take the 2. I mean who loses when leading by 8 with 5 to go. lol

Mate it was NEVER in doubt that we'd win..lol..

It was the ultimate lol@5(c)uff$ moment though..How can they top that sheet??..

[Geohood]

Yeah I know guys I'm still kicking myself lol.. Was a surreal experience either way and one I'll remember for a long time!! ****ing still buzzing!

[Geohood]

Wish I stayed for the look on the sea of Souffs supporters faces around me.. dear oh dear!! They all left the ground shaking their head was hilarious but would of been better to see it as it happened

[Guest]

I'm just as astonished as you Geohood. IMO they never looked likely. The only word I can think of to describe our backline for most of the night is impotent. It was why I pulled the plug with a few to go. I don't usually but I certainly won't again. Go the Roosters!!

But that's just it. According to the NRL website last night, the score at 80 minutes was 20-18 to Souths so I switched it off. That's my karma for all the condescending lectures I've given my friends over the years for leaving games early, complaining when we are far behind, thinking negatively etc!! A game that will always stick out to me though was 2005 when we were down 16-0 against Canterbury at Homebush on a Friday night. We played with 12 men because Adrian Morley had been sent off (for something completely different!) and we ended up winning that game. I still have the newspaper clipping from the SMH the next day with the headlines "Revenge of the Roosters!" with a picture of Ricko and Finchy hugging each other mid air. Oh happy days are here again!

So what did we learn about leaving early boys?

I saw Luke Ricketson and Ivan Cleary leaving with 5 minutes to go.... you weren't alone
