[Tommy Smith]

Roosters by 20.

 

[Hutty1986]

Sowie loves playing the Rorters in big games. Should be a belter

 

[roofromoz]

We'll either win by 2 or lose by 20+.

 

[Blues Riff]

I'll just be happy if the Panthers are in the game for 80 minutes. Good big game experience for the future stars.

 

[Chook]

We play to our best we will win even if Pemriff play to theirs.

Chook.

 

[Rooster Cogburn.]

Easts would have to play very poorly to lose this. If they play well the floodgates will open.

Please tell me we will get a Cogburn circa 03 meltdown if the Panthers win.

 

[Rooster Cogburn.]

This is our time.

 

[maple_69]

Thats a yes.

That was last year. NRL doesn't like teams winning back to back comps.

In other news, Napa gets 2 weeks. Back for Preliminary Final, provided Roosters win in Week 2.

Love your work Frog. :lol:

It's going to be very interesting too see what tactics Cleary has in store for the Roosters.

He isn't last years coach of the year for nothing,and this year he has gone beyond that.

Just hope he is training the team indoors,wherever that would be.

Sorry, but he isn't last year's Coach of the Year. Dunno where you got that from.

The 2013 Dally M Coach of the Year was Trent Robinson.

 

[maple_69]

Yeah I thought that odd as well. He's certainly this year's anyway.

 

[BuddPanther]

Looks like $BW ,Cordner, Moa & JWH are in for a little OT this week. Rorters bench a little thin hey fellows

Actually this statement is true whichever team wins although I didn't realise it at the time.

 

[maple_69]

Wouldn't the second game of his suspension be the prelim if they get the week off.

If they don't have to play Week 2 they don't win, so he won 't be back for the prelim.
