Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Warriors

[TinglyChaff]

Wasn’t 50

So we can still win the premiership

[Mr Whippet]

Ref killed us. The woeful call of no try then string of penalties etc was just too much

Yes very depressing.

[player 1]

I can't take that score as a meaningful result.

17-9 penalty/6 again count (evened up by ref a bit at end too).

Definite roosters try disallowed. Second probable try disallowed by bunker against on field decision. Definite knock on no try allowed to NZ.

Every time NZ knocked on in attack they received a penalty.

Rugba League Vlandys style is not the same as Rugby League.

We won the last 2 real comps 2018/2019.

When roosters lose it's great for ratings, I get it, but that was just beyond any semblance of a fair contest.

I really hope the appallingly biased/corrupt officiating is drawn attention to by Robinson.

Worrying signs when exactly the same issues that doomed us last year show up exactly the same in the first week of the new season.

And by the usual suspects.

Nothing has changed with this team in years, always forcing stupid passes, always giving away stupid penalties, always arm grabbing in defence, always playing rushed footy. How did Robinson go from the Bondi Wall mentality to this shit? He still sets the team up like it's covid era Vlandysball

But is anyone really surprised? It's the same team as last year except for a geriatric witches hat defender wearing the 6 jersey and Reece Robson: same team, same style of play, same results.

We killed ourselves like we do every year you can't put out a piss weak performance like that and blame the ref.

Tbh loosing toia a day out and then leniu in the warm up sucks
This is the risky thing with only having 3 front rowers we lost Leniu and had to bring Foketi in who played nsw cup and only had 2 front rowers
we hardly used Foketi maybe he should have been in the 19 over rodwell ?
sucks for talau

I just want to see Chez use a shoulder in a tackle. I’ve never seen so much jersey grabbing. That was a troubling debut.

The hired Cheika to coach the forwards so the piss poor defenses is no surprise.

[ARD]

Positives; Sammy looked good. Billy missed one late but was strong, played phyiscal. Wong had impact off the pine, I’d like to see him on an edge. Teddy had his moments, Whyte dominate carries.

also like the passion/ frustration from Walker and Teddy. They cared, that matters to fans.

[Chook2]

**** me that was a hard watch
we played roosters footy conceding way to many penalaties and errors, I have never seen a team have the ball and give away so many penalaties
and when we had the ball we had no patience with no look flicks etc

but fark that ref and video ref killed us we lost every 50 call and seemed to have 2 tries disallowed

seems another year same old roosters footy
DCE was shit house
walker had good moments but needs to control himself
Angus and Collins for senior players had bad moments

only players who could hold their heads up tonight were
3. Billy smith
2. Teddy
1. Whyte

let’s hope toia and Spencer are not far off
That gives a shit feeling for the weekend

I'm a Robbo supporter but I really dislike how cute he gets with some of his signings and bringing in a rugby union coach to be an NRL forwards coach is just another one of those "I'm smarter than everyone else" signings that none of the top coaches would ever make.

Can we not give that gig to Jared, Boyd, anyone who is making a name for themselves in the lower grades or at other clubs? I loathe the Dogs but Gus goes out and raids Penrith who are the best of the best and we go and look to unsigned Union coaches

all the new rules were put into full effect on us, but I also hope Robbo brings up Walkers two 1st tackle kicks, and for what reason DCE didn’t manage the game, which seems to be the reason he was signed for.

[kakaruk]

One of the most biased referring displays i have seen teddy lost his cool with this clown and I don’t blame him a bit

[ARD]

We conceded a penalty in our first defensive set of the season. It set the tone for a frustrating night and an all too familiar feeling.

[mattyh]

Disappointing, not much to say , i watch melbourne, penrith now , we are as talented as those teams, but we look a disorganised rabble, is it poor coaching ? Im starting to wonder
