Rd9: Parra v Roosters GAME DAY THREAD @ BankWest Stadium 7/5/2021

Was a good win.

Roosters are tough, even with injuries had more rep players in the game that we’ve had in our team in 5 years.

We don’t lose Mahoney and I think we win that by 30. Not having Smith on the bench hurt, and and Moses said in his interview, they haven’t practiced what they’d do without Mahoney (maybe something to consider...)

Drown will get 2-3 week imo, Marata probably 3 due to priors.

Waqa back next week according to BA in presser and Nrown should be sweet

Trents face reminds me of a breed of dog but I can't think of the name of it. They are real ugly, flat faced. Can anyone help?

Would you say a munted head?

 

[hindy111]

I thought that was ET for a second

Also on the Mahoney injury it really did stuff our replacements Cartwright had to go to 5/8 instead of running at Walker.

Think a utility is a must from now on.

And he even played dummy half for a while. He was pretty bad there. Dylan did ok when he passed right to left. But his left to right service was as bad as Bryce’s.

Will Smith will likely be playing 6 so we are going to need a different utility next week. If Drown and Mahoney are both out then Matto or Cartwright will have to play 6

Thinnon troops and don't want injuries. Good that Stone is also back and after rnd 10 I think we can play Roach

yes I would.

If BA like Dunster then he should of try him at fullback in NSW cup rather then wasting 2 weeks on the bench in NRL. If he handled it then we can move Guth to halves

 

[hindy111]

yes I would.

He has a munted head.

Also don’t discount the Roosters putting in 109% into that game before struggling.....

They should've gone all in and given 110%

 

[T-Boon]

looking forward to Waqar in this unit.

unless the level 3 bubble is cancelled then our nsw cup boys can’t play as not allowed into the bubble now - so no Stone, Rankin

Our utility is injured.

I wonder if Lussick/Roache will be available if they’re not in the bubble?

not sure Smith will be back. If he isn’t just put rankin in the halves. And if reed isn’t back put lussick at hooker ( rather Roache but doubt he will be promoted).
Need to put “specialists” in the positions
And have Hayze on the bench.

I'd say he knows Dunster doesn't have the skill or work rate for fullback.
