'13 | 2nd PF | Sat | Roosters 40-14 Knights | Allianz

[Doomednow]

Both times the Knights have made a big line break the Rorters have stripped the ball to stop the momentum. There's a rule that needs adjustment.

 

[juanfarkall]

The pace of the game took an obvious toll on the Knights in the first half. They were dead on their feet in the last 10.

Rabs was struggling from the moment the ball was kicked off.

If Nein was fair dinkum about League they would f**k Rabs and Gould off.

 

[Alpha]

Hey look, the siren went off early. NRL pulling out all the stops!

Clutching at straws

Take off your tin foil hat and stop being a twat

 

[Diesel]

This will be a blow out in the second half...Chooks will carve them up.

Ha we all thought that about Manly last night

 

[kia ora storm]

I hope you catch AIDS your posting on this thread is disgraceful you stupid merkin

Settle down kiddo...

 

[Tommy Smith]

Amazing defence by the Knights.

We've raped them for 40min and it's only an 8 point gap.

And that includes an appalling forward pass.

Shame for Bedsy. One of the game's greats deserves better. But alas sport shows sympathy to no-one.

 

[Jono078]

I thought that was a professional foul and he should have been binned.

 

[Parramatta1947]

Then we see Ray Warren losing his marbles on the penalty for the strip, bloke could barely find his voice when $BW threw a pass that Eli Manning would be extremely proud of.

So true!

 

[perverse]

The Roosters are very good at knowing when to break the rules. I think we're shot here. We're brave... but I don't think we have it in us. It'll take an almighty halftime speech by Bennett to get us up for this.

I'm proud of us, though. Our defence under immense pressure has been outstanding, particularly our scramble. I think we'll keep showing up for each other, but the Roosters are in too much of a rhythm now and we're running out of energy.

 

[Raiders_Premiers]

The speed of this game is unreal.

 

[Sir Biffo]

I watch from overseas on livestream, the NRLS official broadcaster for those who live in countries with no agreement, and we get all the commentary team in between commercials, Joey has just let off about 400 f**kin hells while they prepare for the halftime segments ... I think he's a bit emotional

 

[Alderley Rooster]

Hargreaves just got a massive spray from a Newcastle fan about Buderus.

Oh no! Hope he can handle it!

 

[STORM.99/07]

Hargreaves just got a massive spray from a Newcastle fan about Buderus.

don`t think he will be too fussed about it.

 

[Blake]

Hargreaves just got a massive spray from a Newcastle fan about Buderus.

Yeah caught that also. The guy must have said something pretty offensive because they walked a bit further up the tunnel then motioned to turn around but kept walking.

 

[MacDougall]

I think Newcastle will win this. The intensity and speed of this game is going to take it's toll on the Roosters bigger guys and the Knights outside men are causing problems already because of it. Newcastle to get home on the back of the spirit of Buderus and the crowd for me.

 

[_Johnsy]

Refs ensuring Roosters progress to next week

 

[Raider_69]

Knights HAVE to first to score. I dont think this Roosters side is going to concede 3 tries in a half when they've got a commanding lead.

Lets be honest, forward pass aside, the roosters have been clearly the better side so far. All of it to do for the knights

 

[blaza88z]

For stripping the ball. Are you blind?

it was 1 on 1 when the ball was stripped

 

[Parramatta1947]

Well, if this continues, Manly will be premiers next week. Roosters needed all the help from officials and they got it

 

[Iafeta]

So true!

It'd be interesting if say someone pulled him up for barely commenting, and then fapping furiously in favour of, $BW's quarter back pass on the Dead Set Legends. What would happen is the caller would, as happens most Saturday, get half way through their sentence, promptly be muted while Ray furiously rejects that he's a blind old coot whose last good year of commentary was 1996 with a diatribe of nonsense relating not to the call that was made.
