[OVP]

Roosters by the same amount of times Funch kicks the ball straight down the opposition fullback's throat.

I'm still laughing at his last minute ball to Mitch Pearce in the last game :lol:

 

[Non Terminator]

Roosters by 16.
I reckon we'll have a decent lead sometime, but hopefully we'll manage to continue on with it.
I just wanna see both teams get out there and give it the best effort either team has done for the season. Jack's name will fire them both up I'm sure.

 

[Babyface O'reilly]

Deserves to be a great game......most definitely.

However, Moimoi and Riddell are now both out. One is a big loss, the other can get his bags packed for England early.

If Roosters don't win this one by plenty they might as well give up.

Yeah, Moimoi's a big loss but remember, the weaker your team is, the worse we play so you never know. I gather you won't miss piggy Colonel?

 

[Cockadoodledoo]

Mark O'Meley out tomorrow, no word on possible replacement but I suspect Shane Shackleton.

 

[Geohood]

Whats up with O'Meley? Ah well at least he'd be fresh for Melbourne.... or is it serious?

 

[Non Terminator]

Meanwhile, Sydney Roosters have been hit with a blow after prop Mark O'Meley was a late withdrawal.
O'Meley yesterday fell victim to a chronic Achilles tendon problem and will be replaced by either Lopini or Mickey Paea.
Shane Shackleton joins the bench.

Disappointing to hear.

 

[BeeeeeRad]

That's not good news, I hope it isn't going to keep him out of the finals that would really f**k us up bad. This will really test our front row depth... No O'Meley, Myles or Nuuasala - Paea boys should step up nicely 'Pini had a blinder in the second half last week hopefuly it carries over.

 

[Rovelli]

Eels must win to keep their season alive.

another sh*t TV game coming up
Raiders v Panthers would have been a better choice for 9

 

[Chook Norris]

Phil GOuld today mentioned that Eels seem to win every penalty count and the Roosters seem to lose all of them... interesting...

i sense an upset :x

As I write it's raining. Given that we're sh1t when it's wet, you may be right.

[gong_eagle]

LOL @ the undisciplined chooks
Penalties to parra 6 - 0

 

[Mr Saab]

Could be a massive loss for the chooks

 

[gong_eagle]

Parra back in front
Try to Joe Galuvao
22 - 18

 

[Gaba]

Could be a massive loss for the chooks

Would it be a surprise though , they lost to a depleted goldcoast, struggled against a depleted cowboys teams

 

[Mr Saab]

Wouldnt suprise me. I dont think Freddy will be eating blue berry muffins and drinking apple juice in the coaches box anymore

 

[Rovelli]

Mateo is a difference-maker.
