The Roosters V Wigan game may draw a decent crowd as I know of some people that have bought there tickets for this game a month ago.

Its on a Saturday night and has had airplay from channel 9.

Good luck to the Roosters! The Wigan side were big winners in a trial game in NZ last week. Should be worth watching!

The Wigan side won't get near. Too many influential players were lost in the off season and their defence has been shocking in the game and a half they have played against decent opposition this year so far.

Aren't they expecting around 25k for it though?

Also, why have the CS and the WCC just 3 hours apart? I'd have gone to both if there was a chance of getting to Allianz from Wollongong by train in an hour.

Souffs and Easts to get up in the CS/WCC.

Anyone know what crowd Easts are likely to pull?

Just tried to buy tickets for the WCC and it looks like the upper eastern stand is now open.

This usually indicates a crowd of at least 30K (if stadium members show up).

Big shame Keary will miss half the season, he was looking ready for a big season, but I expect Walker will make the five eight jumper his own

All shit aside it's a real shame to see keary go down. He does look to have a lot of talent and is a much more rounded half then Reynolds. For souths to go that one step further keary could have been the one to give their attack a bit of unpredictability.

Interested to see walker at 5/8, I'd only ever seen him at center in the 20s and first grade and hadn't seen much in his game to show he had ball playing ability. Electric running game is his real asset.

Hearing Walker has a hamstring injury and is out, if so does Sutton go to 5/8 and someone to lock?

Walker never played center in 20s, he played five eight. God you make up some shit :lol:

He may have played 90% of his career in the 20s at 5/8. In the few I saw he played center, one against the tigers and the other in the origin 20s.

Maybe you should actually read what I say before going off early, save that for your mrs
