The Roosters had two periods of success at Penrith, first was 1975-83, interrupted by Greg Alexander's debut. The other was a run of five straight in the noughties. Since then we've had the better of it, 7 from the last 10.
Pretty factual but we are going to win 13+
Yes we do have our work cut out. Many of the players missing have been missing for weeks and they have still been winning.
Cordner has not played this year, however, given now it is official that he has retired, they will be extremely fired up.
They’re reminding me of the Panthers 2014 team
And so the panthers should as would a full strength Roosters to Penrith in the same situation. As I said Roosters have no pressure on them.
It was some footy team if it could have been kept healthy.
I mean Verrlis, and co are coming back, obviously.
Gower actually played Hooker though, so there was something concrete on which to base the judgement. With Cleary it's entirely theoretical.
Gower was a great player, most which was spent playing half back. One of our toughest ever players pound for pound. Played a lot of games over a prolonged period time with a chronic sternum problem. As anyone will tell you playing with a serious sternum injury requires courage & guts (and pain killing injections off course).
