You would think so . But that is not how our dickhead coach thinks . He would be thinking if we can get away with Mathews at centre and not have to use Milne at all that's a win .

JDB @ 1/2 now WM in the centres. Wow

I agree... Wow. I kinda got half the reason not to let Hutch start, I didn't agree with it, but I understood it. This one leaves me perplexed. Taane Milne is a specialist right centre who has been playing well in the NSW Cup against men. There is no reason for him to be protected. All this shows is a glaring lack of confidence in a young man which is not the message that should be sent.
Mary has been banging on how we have much greater depth this year, well show some faith in it and don't put in short term stop gaps cause you think you are protecting a green player.

On the other hand Robinson names a rookie five eighth to make his debut, showing full confidence in his juniors..

Not necessarily. Mathews on for the early exchanges. Then into the forwards. Perhaps.

So the logic is you aren't good enough to start as a centre but we will shift the bloke that started in your spot to second row when the forwards get tired and then give you a run in the centres at some point.

This is the logic that has stuffed our club well and truly.

Playing with the same determination and now a bit of confidence in one another. That's all I can ask for. The scoreline is inconsequential.

Ok so far so good.
18-0 now to go on with it in the 2nd half......not like last week boys.

The Mathews/Milne experiment well at the moment a stroke of genius. Milne has come on and made some bone jarring tackles which has shaken up the Roosters outside backs......more please.

Lafai having by far his best game.....some really good tackles. Everyone doin their job.

C'mon boys let's keep it going in the 2nd half.

H/T 18-0. The opportunity is there to pile on some points and improve that F&A.

I know you can only play the team in front of you, but how crap are Easts?

Agree. I really hope we don't go conservative in the 2nd half. Put the foot down and pile on some points.

Another Roosters try...

They'd go alright playing NFL with passes like that one.

It took us 63min to spin the ball out the backline and we looked dangerous..
Why don't we do this more often.. Milne hasn't touched the ball!! Seriously inept attack
