2019 R3 Fri - Eels 18-32 Roosters @ ANZ

I want Parra to win , but I think the dogs and riff gifted us those wins and not getting excited about our chances yet .

Based on previous years history with same fixture it will be roosters 20+

The roosters aren't fit yet and are nowhere near the team they will be in 5 months time. Robinson's MO is to get your fair share of wins in the first half of the season (6-8 out of 12) and then put the foot down thereafter and I don't see that changing this year.

On paper they should still beat Parra but who knows. I expect a tight one.

Cooper Cronk ruled out of the match.

Parra on a high and improving each week. As I expected Fergo has made a huge difference. Without him, they’d be lucky to have won last week.

Dylan Brown looks better every week too and the other kid Salmon looked good in his limited time last weekend.

Roosters are a very, very good team; we have potential, but are not there yet.

I think the Roosters will win, but I honestly think we will push them.

And at this stage of the season, honestly - I'd be happy with that.

Tempted to tip Eels

The salary yarmulke vs the salary sombrero.

Gee I wonder.

These Matt Nable narrated fluff pieces before every game are the worst thing that's ever happened to rugby league

 

[t-ba]

These pre game intros are nausea inducing.

Worse than Super League.

Matt Nable has m.... zzzzzz...

 

[Bazal]

Brad Takairangi is the worst centre in the world.

Latrell 1
Refs 0

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

I picked Latrell in my SuperCoach because I wasn’t to hve something to “smile about” when the smug merkin scores. That went well

Come on mate, that's not fair.

There has to be some kind of Brad Takairangi adjustment to the scoring system. At least a 25% discount

 

[Tommy Smith]

Sutton really hates us.

 

[wibble]

That tackle would get you binned in Super League

 

[Bazal]

Ugh I hate getting loads of early penalties cos the square ups are inevitable

Nice stuff from young Brown

 

[t-ba]

Forward pass there lol
