I was in the Army, now I’m a copper.

NIce - Where you stationed? I have a few mates in the blues.

Nice, appreciate the work.

I tried for the army but couldn't get past the hearing test.

I wouldn't be surprised if he was like me. A bit of an outcast because you're socially awkward. It's fine being around people for short periods of time but anything ling term turns pretty bad.

He coaches junior teams but could be that with adults. Bottom line without team harmony the team struggles so he is best of going

Merrylands - which ain’t so Merry! Hahaha, I’m actually about to go back to the Army full time (for 12months) and help out with some training. Nice to get a break from shift work.

The NRL site has named Bill Kikau as our most improved player this year.....I would have gone for Fisher-Harris myself.

Fish was already good (still improved this year) but had injuries last year.

Kikau has done what Blake did in 2016 and became awesome after playing not so good.

Kikau never a had chance last year. Was very poorly used

Without a doubt. Was a shame to watch. Glad he's got the opportunity now.

JFH was just as good in 2016. This is Kikau's breakout year

My old stomping ground!

I'd think you'd be very familiar with some of the more, alternative, residents that used to disturb my evenings on the west side of Granville.

Tough job I'm sure.

Chin up, you have plenty of friends on here!

Really high intensity game today between Roosters and the Bulldogs. The Dogs are not going to be a walk over next week.

Are you kidding?

That game was trash. The attack from both teams was nowhere near first grade standard. Roosters just kept making mistakes anf giving away penalties.

Bulldogs had well and truly over 50 tackles in the red zone and couldn't score. All the possession. Field position and a 13 on 12 advantage for 20 minutes yet couldn't score a single point.

Roosters won ugly, just like we had to do against Parra in Round 5

Once again a game at ANZ is garbage. That place is hell

Would have to be the worst ground in Australia for crowd experience.

I didn't think the game was trash. It was the least penalty affected game of the year (at least it felt that way), so a lot of flowing football was played.

With the weight of possession that the Bulldogs had, against many defences they would have scored simply out of the fatigue of the defence, or a one on one miss. They were also able to generate a few repeat sets to keep building pressure.

The fact that they lost also means they will be more likely to turn up against us next week.

They are definitely a side that is improving. I expect next weeks game to be close.

100%. Seats too far away, outside is like ghost town (unless a major event is on). Not a fast surface too so game standard drops.

11 penalties tonight... Errors 27 so that was what made the game poor
