Roosters should be kicked out of the comp if they can't win by at least 20 tbh

 

[KiWi_BoI_15]

Any chance of the Doggies gettin back some of their starters for this one? Williams and co?

 

[Timmah]

SBW will be back. I'm tipping the Roosters but would not be surprised if we somehow scored an upset - Roosters missing Tupou, Mason, Fitzgibbon, Anasta and Mini. I'd almost guarantee we'll win if Patten plays too...

 

[KiWi_BoI_15]

Roosters to win, but there is a sniff of an upset here Timmah as you said.

 

[Downie]

How many tries will the Roosters score off kicks this week?

Nothing like a trouncing to get the boys motivated for their next game, especially when they play us.

Especially with our top 6 players out.

 

[Tom Ace]

How many tries will the Roosters score off kicks this week?

And how many points will each of those tries off kicks get us?




I'll give you a hint.

The same as any other try.

 

[Timmah]

Perhaps he's referring to the fact you struggle to cross at ground level ;-)

What's the go with other fans having a shot at the chooks for scoring off kicks! I wouldn't mind the Saints being 3rd :crazy:

Jealously.

Looking forward to this game. I do smell a Dogs upset though.

we score 50% of the time 'on the ground'

 

[Downie]

I thought the stat they mentioned on Sunday was 75% of tries off the boot?

 

[BeeeeeRad]

Mason didn't have too much trouble against you blokes last time;-).

 

[Bicey_18]

No Pearce as well apparently.. I think the Dogs will get this one

 

[Geohood]

Possible players out:
Anasta
Pearce
Mason
Myles
Fitzgibbon
Tupou
O'Meley

..would make for a closer game considering the Doggies players out aren't that flash apart from Patten/SBW/Tonga.

get your hand off it I don't think our second grade side can come up to top the dogs. I am tipping them especially if Anasta and Pearce are in the SOO side

 

[ledzep]

Should be a lot more interesting now that we have no halves

Want to change that opnion now Krispe Kreme boy?
