I like your sign better

I’m going to rd 25 on the Goldy, was gonna take a wooden spoon painted blue and grey and wear it round my neck if we are spoon bound but I think my creative talents might be better put to use making a set of knee pads.......

97% completion rate from the Cowboys and also the refs trying to get JT a fairytale finish in his last ever game at the SFS , this was an interesting game, Roosters the better side for 2/3rds of the match but no penalties in the second half and the Roosters letting the Cowboys off load so much in the second half it almost come back to haunt them. Joey Manu was brilliant for the Roosters tonight.

I like your optimism but what makes you think it will work if you do it again?

There’s only one NQ player I’d ‘do it again’ for.......

It was won in the first half, when the Roosters were allowed to wrestle and the Cows weren't. The ball passed into Feldt and going over the sideline being called played at was a critical call as it turned out. There were a few others as well. I don't think the Roosters have any right to whinge about the refs.

The Cows did show how the Roosters can be troubled, if anyone has a forward pack good enough and can hang onto the ball.

I’d still like to see a replay for the penalty on the apparent ‘escort’ or was it ‘taking out the kicker’ in the first half.......

I stand corrected, we did get one penalty in the 2nd half, that happened in the first minute. I do agree that the Roosters can be troubled, even though we ran over the top of Manly and Saints the soft tries we let in against both of those sides was a bit worrying. South's next week will be a big test, Damien Cook punched holes through the Roosters earlier in the year, we are a better team now than the one that faced South's back then but I fear Cook could do the same thing again and I don't want to give that grub Burgess any latitude.

Mate the penalty count was 10 - 8 in our favour

Hardly uneven

Where did I say it was uneven ? just mentioned we didn’t receive any in the 2nd half until I watched the replay this morning and I did notice we received the very first penalty of the 2nd half.
