Roosters wont set the world on fire but wont be the worst either. 7th to 10th imo. Finished the season off ok last year when they had nothing to play for. Think the Doggies are likely to finish lower than the chooks doggiesbro!

Can't see them making the 8, they look pretty unthreatening. Will be surprised if they average more than 17 points a game.

Does doggiesturd really need to comment the same thing after every prediction? Obviously cares more about big brother than his own loser team.

Less off field crap plus a bit more experience in the young guys should see us improve a bit. Anywhere between 11th-9th will be a good season. Anything less than 12th will be poor. We recovered to 11th last season after booting Myles and Carney.

Can't see us making the 8 unfortunately. Team is way too inexperienced and lacks creativity in the spine.

The forward pack is strong and has very good depth, the backline not so much there's only 3 positions that are really up to NRL standard. Mini is past it, Anasta has a lot to prove and the left side combo of wing and centre will be made up of two unknowns.

The predictions of a spoon are misguided imo, I can't see us getting dominated with such a good pack, good dummy half and halfback. These are the core basics of any good Rugby League side and we're certainly ahead of others.

Glamour club. 16th. Anasta to lift a second wooden spoon the merkin. Add another 20 years to the next premiership.

It's okay though they're nice guys.

I've honestly got them Last.

Not that I think there horrendous. They will win some games and be competative. I just can't find a side I think will finish below them. Just don't see too much strike power or quality across the park. Plus the fact that there a side that often bottoms out and has the odd awful year.

There always a club prone to implosion, however this year I think simply there squad is mediocre.

16th.

15th with the Dogs in 16th. . . . ok, I'm not really serious, I just wonder if DoggiesHoe can actually read further than the first six words without formulating another attack on how bad the Roosters are.

It's only his insistance that the Dogs are going to do well that makes me doubt that he's angling for a job sucking Phil Rothfields c**k.


We have our good points and our bad points. Good points. Our team is young and enthusiastic and will play for each other. Our forward pack is extremely mobile, talented and under rated. We wont suffer much around Rep football time. Our hooker is improving at a rate of knots. SKD and Perrett can be a great combination in attack. Our halves have a very good kicking game.

Bad points. We lack experience. We're error prone. Our halves are percentage players and lack creativity at times (not good when you're error prone). We have no depth in our wide backs. Our forward pack sometimes lacks power and can get dominated.


Where we end up will hinge on how we fare with injuries (and how some other clubs do to be honest), keeping the penalty count low (we give away far too many silly penalties), ball security and finding some young talent to come into our backline. Also our defence needs to kick up a notch. Our halves can gain good field position if we get through our sets (big if) and if our defence kicks in we will gain alot of good field position. This will help cover for our lack of speed.

Anywhere from 9th to 14th in all honesty. We're building towards something, but we're not there yet.

They have some very promising young forwards imo and possibly a bit more strike out wide now if Moga can make the step up.

I think they may just fall short of the 8, or just scrape in.

I reckon they'll be far better in 2013, though.

The Roosters will be first club to sack thier coach in 2012. I can't see them rise beyond 15th on the 2012 ladder.
