Dream Roosters team

[Lambretta]

OK - the rules are -

No salary cap

Must either be a current or former Roosters player and still be playing in the NRL today (not Super League)
You can include if they were at the club and played U21's, reserve grade or first grade btw.

Name your 1 through 17

Here's my effort

1. Mini
2. Graham
3. Hodges
4. SKD
5. Perrett
6. Carney
7. Pearce
8. Hannant
9. Friend
10. Shillington
11. Maubs
12. Myles
13. Anasta

14. JWH
15. Guerra
16. Tupou
17. Tamou

FMD that would be an excellent team, but I reckon others can top it.

It was kinda depressing last night seeing 3 of the Australian front row be Roosters discards.

That said, I really don't like Hannant or Pillow. f**k em. Thankfully Pillow has not once ever put in a decent game against us.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

Pillow is a dud. Hannant was sad to see go. Not sure why Tamou was let go?

Times were good when Bernie was steering the ship.

I'd go with TT's line up. Surprised to see Tupou's name come up. I seem to remember him being lazy and inconsistent.

 

[Tonearm Terrorwrist]

I'm amazed as well. Tupou was MIA most nights and peaked circa 2005. I'm actually surprised people wouldn't want Crocker, a hard bastard who would do everything Myles did but better.

Wouldn't take Pillow and Tupou back even if they agreed to play for free.

Agree with this. Used to be a big fan of Friend but he is awful in attack.

I'd go with TT's line up. Surprised to see Tupou's name come up. I seem to remember him being lazy and inconsistent.

Tupou is a bench player
Give him 30 minutes per game at the back end of each half and he can be effective

Maybe I should have gone for Crocker

We'll put that down as an oversight. Just don't do it again.
