2 attacking efforts in 40mins, one offload in 80mins, yeh your not predictable at all lol

We weren't in a position to be anything other than predictable and then there was a lazy defender and bang... long range try.

Our defence never got lazy.

I didnt say you were lazy, I said you were predictable and null and void of attacking ideas.

The Roosters won 3* in 7 years.

Nothing lasts forever.

In the 80's the eels won 4 and the dogs won 4
In the late 80's early 90's the Raiders won 3 in 6 years
In the 90's the Broncos won 4 plus won in 2000 also (5 in 11 years)
Between 2007 and 2012 (before being stripped of two of them) the storm won 3 in 6 years

This decade is one of the better ones in the game's history in terms of variety of premiers:

1990's: 8 different premiers (7 if you don't include 1997 when the comp was split in two)
2010's & 2000's: 7 different premiers (6 in the 2000's if you want to remove the Storm premierships)
1930's & 1940's: 6 different premiers

I agree the Roosters weren't particularly dominant, in that the only won 2 genuine premierships in a decade.

Are you counting '13 or' 19 as non-genuine? Both were referee assisted, only nobody cared that Manly lost because it would have been 3 premierships in 6 years.

So what were the most memorable moments of the decade?

Cowboys GF win
Sharks turning the porch light off
Storm caught cheating the cap
NSW breaking the QLD streak
Roosters back to back
Cummins 6 again, jk lol
The peptide scandal
The off season from hell

Personally..
1 - Dragons shake the gorilla of their back 2010 (unashamed bias here)
2 - Newtown Jets resurgence and title win 2019. Although not an actual moment - Henson Park games (I've been to a few) are the best pure footy experience bar none. '
3 - Tonga - Rugby League World Cup. Spine-chilling for emotion and atmosphere.
4 - Souths Premiership drought-breaker - and particularly the bloke swinging his Big Ben outside the Woolpack on Channel 9 news.
5 - Dally M 2018 - Roger Tuivasa-Scheck win with the Haka from his NZ brothers in the crowd. Again - spine chilling stuff

Best GF's
For Quality of football - Roosters Vs Sea Eagles
For Tense Finishes - Cowboys vs Broncos
For Pure Emotion - Dragons/Rabbitohs/Sharks Wins
