If Cronk joins the Roosters, the 2018 competition is over before it starts

[T-Boon]

Cronk is the new Noel Goldthorpe.

 

[Silent Knight]

This wouldn't have happened if Remi Casty was still at the Roosters. Casty would never surrender up the middle.

 

[Vic Mackey]

No

 

[Pommy]

Roosters need to find the French Cronk.

 

[gUt]

Just look at this team:

James Tedesco

Daniel Tupou, Latrell Mitchell, Joseph Manu/Michael Gordon, Blake Ferguson,

Luke Keary
Cooper Cronk

Isaac Liu
Boyd Cordner, S.S. Taukeiaho,
Jared Wharea-Hargreaves, Jake Friend, Dylan Napa

Interchange: Zane Tetevano, Lindsay Collins, Mitch Aubusson, Ryan Matterson,

They’ll struggle to make the 8 imo

surely they make the 8..

 

[Willie Ray]

I couldn't believe how flimsy their forward defence was. Serious question, is Jake Friend carrying an injury?

When Ryan Matterson is probably your form forward in a Starting pack that has 4 internationals and a qld rep in it something is going wrong

 

[JJ]

Remember when they said, "how will Cronk go without Smith"? as though he was Shane Perry!

How disrespectful.

Turns out Cronk is doing just fine. The Storm on the other hand...

hmmm...

 

[_snafu_]

Friend was throwing Mitch Rein quality passes like there was no tomorrow.

 

[hineyrulz]

Friend looks like a poor mans Matt Keating ATM.

 

[Generalzod]

Rosenfeld so much power from the Roosters lol, I think the Roosters are missing Barba

 

[Clifferd]

surely they make the 8..

When their “enforcers” Napa and JWH hide all game I can’t see it happening

Ffs you can have an origin studded backline but you can’t win games without forwards. The price to pay when you go all out on a halfback and fullback

 

[Albert Rosenfeld]

The Roosters are a champion side on paper which has not yet clicked on field every game. Give them time.

Brown paper?

 

[Tommy Smith]

hmmm...

Had a below average game behind a beaten pack but he's probably been one of our two best players this year in an inconsistent side.

He's been in our top 3 in every win.

 

[Life's Good]

Brown paper?

Wet brown paper would be more appropriate for their middle defence.

 

[txta2]

Yet they come out all tough last week against Cronulla. They normally leave the soft games for the Sharks.
Surprised people are only realising how terrible their forward pack is ,as it has been for years now.

A brain injury maybe.
Unfortunately he's been carrying it since birth
