We always lose this game....

St Merge by 7

 

[Horrie Is God]

It's definitely a bogey game for us,but i reckon we'll win it this year..

We look like a serious footy side so far..

 

[bellyache]

This is "a" moment of truth for 2013 Easts coming off a 38-0 win, then a week off and 11 players in rep teams over the weekend. Emotions are high after great individual and team performances, no Roosters players in rep round had a bad game win or lose. If Robbo can get them to regroup as a team and focus on the standards he's put in place, the machine will hit another gear and the belief amongst the players will be consolidated. Plenty of Footy left in 2013 for all teams, a win this weekend against a team that has won 3 in a row will lay the foundation for the playing group to believe in the standards Robbo's put in place.

Sick to death of the Merge winning this fixture, we are way overdue for a win, Chookies by 12.

We're kidding ourselves if we can't beat that side.

 

[grandorient]

Sorry guys, the bogey will continue.

As long as it's a good close contest and no one is injured. I won't wish you guys good luck, but a good game, with the result not influenced by poor ref decisions.

GO

Not such a bad side really, but the Roosters side looks pretty OK to me and will certainly go well, in my opinion.

Looking forward to some of the forward clashes.

GO

[Sir Les Patterson]

I have a pathological hatred of these merkins going back to the days of Stone, Starkey and Reddy. Gasnier stealing Minis phone to hook up with some chicks with d!cks and the sh!t that went down last year almost had me institutionalised ..............

The Dragqueens have been playin some tough footy the last few weeks and they always fire up for this one so im praying to god we fire up and squirt our own hot sauce all over the red v rag.

Lets go Chooko's

Nice post bellyachlian, you summed it up perfectly.

Lets go Chooko's

 

[Big man]

This is a must win game, if you can't beat an average Dragons outfit then all your effort up to this point will be in vain.

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Have a great game today guys. Love to be there but I'm unfortunately stuck in Perth but luckily the game is being shown on Gem. Nein actually came through for once.

 

[grandorient]

Congrats guys, well played.

You were far too good for us today and although the refs made some dreadful decisions both ways, they certainly didn't influence the result.

Good luck for the rest of the year. Keep going and you will definitely be top 4 contenders.

GO
