Roosters have a better spine as well
I really think that if cook, Inglis and maybe sambo have quiet games the roosters will win by 10+
People have been talking all year like we have scrubs up front.
JWH is almost back to career best form where he's one of the league's most dominant forces.
SST is a metre eater who always punches through the line. Isaac Liu is a Kiwis rep.
We have the Blues captain on the left edge. Zane Tetevano hits hard and is in career best form. Matterson runs good lines and is a strong defender. Both offer a lot more than Clark or Britt lol
And Victor Radley is one of the best young forwards in the game.
Our pack is imo on a par with the 2015 version which dominated the league before JWH tore his ACL.
And yet the narrative all year is that they're poor. Similarly we heard all year how Penrith have a great pack... yes, Merrin and Tamou were awesome.
It's funny how these narratives become self reinforcing when a little digging reveals them to be bullshit.
No Latrell for usJason Clarke is out.
Give us the comp now.
No Latrell for us
No Clark Kent for them
That's basically even now, right?
At least you got beat by a decent side that weekend.Watching Roosters vs Souffs 2014 prelim on Fox now, that game hurt
If we lose this I’m probably going to cry and then sext rusty

I feel like vomiting. Must be game day.
Great night - in the end. I don't think I've ever felt worse than I did at the 10 min mark of that game. Down 12-0, looking like going out in the prelim for the 3rd straight year. Then the game started to settle after the manic start, Mitch Pearce told our players to stop choking and Ben Te'o came out and belted James Maloney, giving away a penalty - and the whole team fired up and went on to score 32 unanswered points. Superb.
The atmosphere tonight is going to be next level, however. I can't see it being a close game - I think the team that keeps their heads and handles the occasion is going to run away with it.
