'14 // R3 // Fri // Broncos 26-30 Roosters // Suncorp

[Big Pete]

It isn't semantics, it's apples and oranges. You're comparing an incident to where the play was stopped to when it wasn't.

Yes, it hurt us not only once but twice as the referees used one of our drop outs to put Evans on report when really he should have been penalised earlier but those type of incidents happen every game.

 

[tomdl]

Semantics, point is the drop out was delayed more than a minute for a pot hole while the roosters were supposed to be under pressure with only 30sec to collect themselves.

This, the on field referee has the discretion in this situation. He should be telling them to play the f**k on and realise what the defending team was trying to achieve.

 

[insert.pause]

No he wasn't, he was a couple of metres behind the play by the time the Roosters played the ball.

If anything, Broncos fans should be a bit peeved about Aubusson making contact with Hoffman's outside shoulder on SKD's try, not the fact that Thaiday was knocked out in back play.

he was knocked out in the tackle, ergo before the ball was played and he was still unconscious and entangled with the man playing the ball, ergo he was in front of the play.

promising sign for the maroons bench with Gillett's start to the season

 

[Tommy Smith]

Well we could barely have played worse.

No ball, a massive penalty count against and yet we still win.

A good sign I guess.

Promising signs for Brissy for 2015 with Milford on board. How good is Parker? If I could add one player foe the Roosters itd be Inglis ... but then it'd be Parker lol

 

[Snappy]

Corey Parker is like a fine wine.... Just gets better with age

 

[Jason Maher]

What is he now? 56?

 

[Tommy Smith]

Older than that.

He's absolutely brilliant. What a football player.

 

[Chook]

The worst part of that game was listening to the commentary team of Hadley, Lewis, Lockyer and Sterling, geesus christ could they be any more biased towards the Broncos? I thought Wally was going to rush onto the field and give Gillet a blow job at one stage. I'll be watching the replay's on mute.

A very scrappy win, way too many points leaked from us. Those last tackle running tries should not happen. Anyway two points is two points.

And lol @ souffs lost so perfect start to the weekend.

Chook.

 

[Southern Rooster]

Not many sides would have beaten Brisbane up there last night. Was a good win under the circumstances for the Roosters. But a lot of work to do between now and Manly next week. Defensively they have leaked points this year that last year they would not have. Hopefully that improves but it is good to see them scoring points to win games. But Robbo would not be pleased.

Whinging redneck donkeys fans, love it

 

[Horrie Is God]

I want to know what happened to the 6000 people who bought tickets to the game, but didn't lob..

The weather was perfect, free public transport, etc..

It was mental..would've pushed the crowd over 40 000 too..

Anyways it was nice to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat..

Shows the character in the group..

Go those Roosters..

 

[Jason Maher]

I remember when Corey Parker was a fat, bald bench prop.

Best moment -
JWH puts on a good hit that's deemed high by the ref ( nothing in it imo ) and turns to walk away, Third Man comes screamin' in all huffy and tough, JWH, very casually it must be said, turns to face him and Third Man wilts like a little puppy. Beautiful.
Great win to the Rorters. Good effort by the Broncs but not enough.

 

[Chook]

10 f**king penalties for the Roosters and not one sin bin. Unbelievable.

Give it up dude. You had Shayne "I hate the Roosters" Hayne in your corner. He overlooked two forward passes from Thiaday and another penalty in the 64th minute when Third Man Sam tackled Pearce. Apart from Hunt he was MOM for you guys.

Chook.

 

[WaznTheGreat]

How good would the Roosters be if they didn't have Shaun Kenny Derp and Anthony Ploddichello in there side

 

[WaznTheGreat]

Dale Copley was one of the worst players in the NRL last few years,he seems like a non dope this season,someone must have taught him how to play

 

[RWB]

How good would the Roosters be if they didn't have Shaun Kenny Derp and Anthony Ploddichello in there side

Haha yeh I chuckled when the Broncos players were urging the ref to send off Mini, he was one of their best on Friday night.
