If these teams play their best, this will be the game of the round. I'd say the current two best attacking teams in the comp. The difference is the Roosters are in the top 2 best defensive teams in the comp, while the Warriors are in the bottom 2 or 3. If the Warriors play their best, Roosters by 6. If they don't, Roosters by 18

will JWH be back?

Yeah but you're forgetting our defensive effort against Parra plus the Warriors have a good record against us. Not looking forward to this game but I'll say us by 2.

JWH will be back against Manly, Rnd 16?

 

[Evil_Mush]

Hard game to pick, with three wins on the trot for the first time since Jul'11 (including beating Manly for the first time since Mar'09 & putting 50 on an opponent for the first time since Jul'07) I'd like to think we've got a new lease on life since the Penrith humiliation.

I'll say Warriors by 3, Roosters field goal lead in dying minutes overcome by a last gasp try in the corner to big Manu to win it.

Why can't we be playing the eels this weekend - roosters is a tough one and I think we can pencil it in for a loss to the Warriors. weird time slot too

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Cordner suspended what a joke. Sheep molesters to win

Sorry but we have that pleasure. Guaranteed eels victory according to the most astute ( f**ked up) mind on here, Parraeels2010.

 

[adamkungl]

If both teams carry their form Warriors by 6. If Roosters play half decent Roosters by 20

 

[jamaman]

Warriors by 6 v Chooks without JWH

 

[MrAnonymous]

Half your team kiwis you nazi.

 

[hitman82]

Mateo vs the Muslim should be a good battle. Hard to pick a winner.

Chooks by 10..

I wasn't making a joke... He is a muslim?
It will be a good match up.

Roosters should get up easily here but the Warriors are starting to get a bit of a run on.

 

[Rebel]

This is a really important game. if we can get up here, we might actually, unbelievably be a chance at the top 8. A miracle all things considered.

The refs tend to favour the Roosters when we play them so that's a bit worrying considering we are away. Going to be very close.

Pffft.....we might have been lucky ('very') to win 2 penalty counts this season, had JWH suspended forever and now Boyd Cordner gone...Warriors game to win, no excuses.

 

[Valheru]

This really could go either way. The roosters will want to tick over another win with a tough clash the following Friday against the Dogs with our origin players missing. We are also missing our starting props and possibly Cordner pending tonight’s judiciary.

On the flip side the Warriors are on a high after 3 straight wins and full of confidence. Having said that win streaks in the NRL are hard to come by and normally only top teams surpass 3 straight wins and I don’t think the Warriors are a top team.

The key for the roosters is to get that defence back on track and if that happens the win will follow.
