08 :: R13 Sun :: Sea Eagles 42 Roosters NIL @ Brookvale

[Sood]

yeh, but they seem to be unlucky with it most of time

 

[Apey]

Dayamn, thought this would be a close one.. :crazy:

 

[Garts]

Have a look at the two teams side by side and then tell me why we can't win.

Seems there are 42 reason why you can not win.

 

[c_eagle]

Even without our origin forwards we'll still beat them.

Manly are overrated. The Roosters and Melbourne are much better than them.

Manly will be favourites but something tells me that even without most of our forward pack we'll still be too good for Manly. I reckon we'd flog them with our full strength team!

I've been waiting all week for this! Bumpity bump!

 

[wittyfan]

David Williams would be okay with a shave and a haircut.

Heathy needs a shave too.

Well done mate, June Premiers, take a bow.

 

[Harold Bishop]

I reckon if Mick Bani played we would have got another 3 tries. Deadset NBQ bombed a thousand chances.

 

[Timmah]

:lol: Roosters, Manly, Sharks are all far too inconsistent tbh. Melbourne and Brisbane are probably still both the two teams looking strongest IMO, Dragons Tigers & perhaps Gold Coast are going to be the ones to challenge.

Beats being April Premiers like the rorters. :lol:

Pfft. I know there' a long way to go. Sorry for being happy about a victory, I didn't know that October was the only time you're allowed to celebrate.

Sore losers, ffs.

How are we inconsistent? We always turn up in defense, our forwards are always strong. Sometimes we aren't very good at scoring but that happens on our best days too. We absolutely demolished Brisbane in Brisbane, even Lockyer can't save them.

 

[cupid]

LOL no matter what we do everyone hates us!

 

[Timmah]

Nothing to do with hate... they're just not as good as teams like Melbourne. It's an opinion to which people are entitled, that's all.

 

[Monk]

imo roosters ar not massivly inconsistant...
our origin stars were out and without that extra bit of grunt Manly just steamrolled us...
Manly Fwd Pack > Roosters Fwd pack without origin stars > Eels Fwd Pack

You beat a team without its 4 best forwards that had probably 30% of the ball and made well over a hundred extra tackles. Any team would get beat and beaten well with those stats

 

[Beavers Headgear]

And part of the reason Manly had that extra ball was from a top kicking game and energetic, tough defence that created some errors

I won't be jumping up and down saying how great Manly were, because the Roosters were obviously down on some firepower up front, but the credit is due for the way they played their footy

I know the Roosters will be a tougher proposition next time we meet them, but i also know that Manly will be a better side with King, Cuthbertson, both Stewarts and Bani playing a full part

So are you calling The Survivor an idiot?

Exactly, people are quick to forget we have some of our best players out.
King was our form prop before he got injured.
Cuthbo has been on fire and got a few Dally M points.
Stewart is obviously close to our best player, and our main attacking weapon.
Bani - well i reckon we would have got a couple of more tries if he played. NBQ had a shocker.

You didn't get much ball today because Manly played so well. If our kicking wasn't so good you guys wouldn't have had so many line dropouts. You were missing 5 of your best today, but the team the rooster ran out with today should not have been beaten so badly. Also don't forget we were missing B. Stewart, Cuthbertson, King, Bani, and G. Stewart went off injured for the majority of the match.
