2018 R1 Sat - Wests Tigers 10-8 Roosters @ ANZ

[wibble]

Our forward pack is f**king trash, led by the slowest hooker in the game Friend.

Tigers played well, although it’s not like we tested them.

f**king woeful game really.

Worst part though had to be that commentary team. I don’t know who that main caller is but I’m assuming the actual caller got sick and they just grabbed the least pissed bloke at the Horse and Jockey on parramatta road

Lol.

The commentary grated at first, though I didn't notice much towards the end.

They were the "weak" point (for a team that was better than most others, with the obvious exception of the Storm) last year, and certainly the Roosters forwards need to step up on that effort. But they are capable of it.

Does the falcon recipient get a try assist for that?

 

[Vic Mackey]

You guys won on the back of a shit pass to the head... lol

Planned move

 

[Bazal]

Sensational response. Was the winning try not a poor pass to the head?

As opposed to the scintillating moments of brilliance that were the hallmark of the match prior to that....

You’re used to running riot over our pack, just wait til you play the Dogs and normality will resume

No.

He gets the lead story in Mario Fenech's latest segment.

Also, a 'Thats Gold!' from Markus Harrigon.

Relocate the Roosters to Perth.

I look forward to the comedic gold when we watch him eating chilli later in the season live on air

Yeah, Dragons are probably the only team so far that can say they played close enough to their best to be happy (maybe Knights).

Cheers mate, roosters fans very gracious and congratulatory at the ground

Would be more concerned about the ineptness of the Chooks for the other 79mins, rather than concentrating on that.

Time to drop the flour!

To be fair the pass was intended for Thompson and Tupou was already committed. Was likely to be the same result but I hear ya.

True, the structure was good (or bad, from Roosters view regarding Tupou).

But the execution was poor and the bounce went their way anyway. All close games have moments of good and bad luck that can decide them, it's not like the Roosters were uniquely and outrageously unfortunate, but they could easily have won.

But I'm not trying to take away from the Tigers defensive efforts, they were excellent.

Yep you make your own luck and tigers stuck in there and deserved it

I said we would start shit... not a shock to me.
