2024 R7 Thu - Sydney 12-18 Melbourne @ Allianz

[Chins get the wins]

No one cares

Yes you do

 

[Dragon Slayer]

With the game in the balance and Roosters attacking in great field position, Tedesco kicking on the 3rd tackle was one of the biggest WTF moments i have ever seen.

He’s just warming up for Origin.

Karen cries all the way through the press conference.
Amazingly failed to mention Teddy kicking out at Paps though.

Did he mention the clear Jennings knock on before Manu’s try?

 

[skeepe]

 

[JamesRustle]

They called him SINJIN Ellis, SINJIN

Handcock had no neck

Paul Doolan has wing sewn up. Dogs winger early 90s... face like a dog's breakfast.

 

[yobbo84]

Lol, did Wobbo mention the Jennings knock on before the Manu try? Or the Collins knock on from the kick off? Or the late hit on Hughes that went unpunished before Munster was binned? Or the obstruction penalty that cost Melbourne a try, when it was Keary who made the defensive decision to tackle the lead runner?

What a sook.

 

[Pumpkin]

I don't know what's happened to Robbo lately. We don't blame referees.

 

[Fangs]

Embarrassing again from Robbo.

Honestly Uncle Nick just get rid of him now.

 

[lockyno1]

It was literally a match of who do you want to lose least..

Hopefully they continue to play Tedesco at fullback gives every other side a chance and the comedy is off the charts

 

[Red&BlackBear]

Re: Jennings - what else should he do? Billy smith is injured so the choice is suallii centre and pauga wing or suallii wing and Jennings centre. Next week young is back so Jennings won't be there.

Tonight was a game where sam walker becomes useful. Unpredictable heads up plays to break the structure.

You play Ethan Clark-Wood or Kyron Fekitoa or you shift Sualii to center and play Harry Mckeon or Turoa Williams.

Reason is neither Manu or Sualii are going to be there next season and a 36 year old Jennings isn’t the answer either. You bring some youth and start getting experience in them. Surely one of the many experienced back rowers can help out a new center in defence or if shifting Sualii, he can help a new winger.

 

[GreenMachine121]

Yes you do

Not remotely

 

[SLRBRONCOS]

Just watched the Karen presser and the journos are weak gutted dogs for not mentioning the Teddy trip or the clear Jennings trip. Both teams on the end of garbage decisions.

Just imagine the meltdown if someone tripped Teddy and he had a history of serious leg injuries. He would have called 911 for sure.

 

[Danny-Boy]

haha Karen went off in the presser.

What a sook.

He wasn't asked about those. He also wasn't asked about a number of other decisions that went against us.

He is absolutely right in what he said about the 2nd storm try, the bunker gets it wrong... again.

 

[Valheru]

I don't know what's happened to Robbo lately. We don't blame referees.

The NRL just keeps giving him something to whinge about

That's our last 3 losses by 6 points now with a key mistake by the bunker in all 3 of them. There was the ridiculous obstruction in the Penrith game, the Radley binning in the dogs game and now the 'driver' in this game. The NRL admitted the first two were wrong and will have to do the same for this one on Monday. Meanwhile, I don't recall any such incidents in our favour.

Having said that Robbo is just answering the questions posed to him. Is he supposed to say he agrees with the decision which was clearly wrong? He laid out very eloquently what the NRL communicated as the rule in the pre-season and unless the NRL want to say that is wrong then the bunker has f**ked up a black and white ruling... again.

The next question he was asked was around the 10 minute period where we had an extra man and our failure to score. He spoke about his disappointment in our inability to build pressure and score and commended the storm defence in that period.

He ain't blaming the refs, he is answering the questions the media are asking him.

 

[horrie hastings]

That’s definitely in the hall of fame worst challenges of all time.

Almost as bad as the Roosters one the other week against the Bulldogs in the first 25 secs of the match.
