The bashing is getting out of hand somewhat.
Yes, they have imported players...most clubs do to some degree.
Yes, they do shampoo ads....admittedly gay as mardi Gras, but would have been a good money spinner for the players, which when you think of it, is a good reason for some players to stay perhaps for less money. Stay at a club with good name like Roosters, or go somewhere less admired by general public (dogs perhaps), perhaps sign for more, but have more issues with controversy, less marketable club due to controversy, more unrest of late...etc etc
Yes, they appear to be arrogant at times...why wouldn't they? have been a top 4 side for a few years now, they should hold themselves like winners. I can only think of two players I genuinely dislike for them, being Crocker who is an agitator and Hodges who seems to be a sook...other than that, winners.
I guess tall poppy syndrome is live and well.
Losing 2 games does not constitute a slide...
having an ageing captain is standard everywhere, not just at Roosters.
The way the cap is these days, clubs have 3 - 7 years at the top IMO...then they must rebuild...the Roosters time is coming, then we will bag off at the Bunnies or Saints or melbourne...every dog has its day...and lately, they have been mainly the Roosters'
