Yay, Curtis Scott is back.

In a parallel universe it’s Curtis that suffered an acl, shoulder sublux, lisfranc, broken ankle, multiple shoulder surgeries and fractured face.

what a miserable twat, with Sydney traffic, it probably takes the roosters just as long to get to Campbelltown.

its at the SCG...

anyway Ricky's justified grievance has been rewarded as the nrl has thrown Canberra a bone and allowed them to fly up to Sydney tomorrow. It may be a chewed up bone found in the garbage but better than nothing.

How much time will that save them?

It will probably be 2.5-3 hours door to door to get there given they land in Bankstown and navigate traffic from there.

Which no one is allowed to do at the moment?

We had to fly in and out to Townsville last Thursday. Flight was delayed... injuries at warm up etc.

We had to do the same the Thursday prior to Suncorp.

These are exceptional times.

Shit happens

Tomorrow will mark the first time in 19 days that Ricky's Raiders have had to leave Canberra.

He is being a sook.

Roosters had a longer turnaround turnaround between games though. Delayed flights is something you can't plan for, this is something that could have been arranged much better.

And I'm sure Ricky would run around every golf course in Australia nude to swap fixture schedules with the roosters

Doubtful.

We had a game delayed until Monday which meant we got a 5 day turn around for the parra game whilst they got 8 days. That was then followed up by back to back 6 day turn arounds.

As i said, shit happens

Can’t blame Ricky but if you whinge, you kinda give the team an excuse to lose.

compared to living on a bus?
Roosters have pretty much had all their tough games sandwiched by the competition dregs.

Roosters had their Canterbury game delayed leaving them only a four day turn around against the competition leaders, Parra. The NRL rejected Easts‘ request to delay that game. Obviously TV scheduling made it difficult but the club quickly moved on. Can’t blame Ricky but if you whinge, you kinda give the team an excuse to lose.

the bulldogs game was basically their captain's run for the parra game.

Ricky is simply doing the best for his club. If he says nothing they will continue to get shafted

So you have gone from travel to turn arounds and now to the layout of the draw.

The roosters really shouldn't play the bottom teams.

This will be a blood bath.
The roosters on another level to this injury and form riddled Raiders.

I do enjoy how much Stuart still rustles jimmies though, people dont even take the time to consider what's he's annoyed about and whether it's legitmate. They're just frothing at the mouth to get angry about him. It's great.
I look forward to being that lunatic too when the Stuart-Raiders era ends.
