Official Match Day Thread: Roosters v Panthers

[The Marshall]

lol this rabble will struggle to play finals this year.

They won’t play finals this year and the retention approach of signing has beens and losing young talent will mean we won’t play finals for a few years. Nothing to even look forward to

[DP1990]

can we actually drop players from the team that arent playing well

You mean drop the entire ****ing squad ?


Sure ... whynot !

[Rocky Rhodes]

Look on the bright side....their looks to be a genuine challenger to Souffs this yr.

Gotta be happy with that....surely.

Sorry to say, we are a shadow of our side in 2018/19.... a shadow..

[Swamptrout]

Knights & Dragons have better for / against than us. Let that sink in

[Kokoras]

They aren’t trying. Purposely running dead.
There is obviously a massive cancer in the club. I don’t know if it’s the coach or players but something is very wrong.

This year reminds me of 2016 when Pearce stuffed up, similar to Crichton and everything goes to crap.
Need a major cleanout and give some of the young players a go.
Our season is gone.

[Monaco's Fan Club]

If I was Collins I would leave the club tomorrow .. I feel really sorry for him ..

[Inflictor]

That last try was tools down by Smith. Didn't even attempt to tackle Luai.

[SupermanSupportsEasts4Eva]

And that ladies and gentlemen explains why we drink

[Boondi]

With the amount of missed tackles from the Roosters, maybe the Dragons taking Ryles is doing us a favour. Our defence isn’t a shadow of what it was when Fitz was our defensive coach.

[ARD]

This hurts.

Feels like a lot more pain coming too.

[RoosterFanNZ]

You mean drop the entire ****ing squad ?


Sure ... whynot !

honestly I wouldnt mind it.

but you can already see the same players will keep playing in the same position.

cant believe im going to say it but I would prefer drew starting in the halves than manu playing 6

[Dr. Voodoo Man]

After tonight, they might bring one in.

If this was a fight the corner would have thrown in the towel.

[ism22]

What's there to watch in the second half? Like last week... the game's completely one sided and we're offering nothing.

Goodnight Robbo.

[rooster till i die]

Our frailties laid bare against a confident, well drilled team.

We are a shadow of the real Roosters at the moment. I hope the Coach is honest in his post match assessment no weasel words, or deflecting reality.

Feel sorry for a few guys like Rads, doing his best.

We're also lacking that power in the physical battle, have to even question our training with strength and conditioning.

100% correct. Difficult to turn it around. From week 1 against the Dolphins, the performances have been poor!

[The Marshall]

I get the critics and the bagging of the coach, but a lot of those posters have been saying how good our roster is. It's not that good at all when you scratch the surface.

Exactly it’s hollowed out for years because to much cash is tied up in has beens and we only get players like lodge on subsidised deals. The sooner we realise we are miles away from a premiership and start to rebuild a squad that actually suits the new style and not one that’s trying to play like 2019 the better. But no let’s resign Jared and drop Walker.
