In the fair dinkum dept though if a player hits another high or head slams and is put on report but the player hit goes off for HIA, then why isn't the offender placed in the sin bin?

It's hard on the ref to make a call straight away unless it's pretty obvious a sin bin or send off.

I still think they should have 6 on the bench these days.

Yes but they review it for HIA...surely they are reviewing it for foul play hence why they have placed them on report

He is such a flog, would never be the Roosters fault, no doubt Uncle Nick is firing in a letter of dispute.
Next Robbo will be asking for Kikau to be cited for daring to run into Tedesco causing the HIA.


I was expecting him to have a whinge about the knee that took Walker out...

You think he would have learned after the whinge he has in LA

The big question from here, is will the R&R team actually manage to agree on conditions to get his signature on a contract.
We have a few merkins off contract next year but the only one who would be on much more than minimum salary would be Simonsson. We have a few kids who should be ready for the top 30 (e.g. Tuivati, Guymer, Arthur, Penisini and AMS) plus Moretti who has already played first grade. These are guys we should be able to get for minimum salary. We can replace the following current top 30 members:

Asi
Cini
Harper
Makatoa
Ogden
Simonsson
Taumoepenu

But these guys do need to be replaced in the top 30. Besides Simonsson, how much would the others be on? Was there enough demand for them to be on much more than the minimum? Maybe an extra $30k-$50k for the likes of Makatoa (top 17 when he re-signed), Harper (56 NRL games) and Ogden (45 NRL games). Asi, Cini and Taumoepenu would be on minimum salary. The club obviously has the cap space for Lomax next year. Maybe we are well under this year. Momoisea and Rodwell won't have freed up much. Have we convinced Dunster not to take up his mutual option?

Robbo has the advantage of serious players on the board , if the Roosters didn’t have behind the scenes backing they would be the Titans.
