As exciting as SBW is... The biggest thing I'm looking forward to from the kiwis is watching Shaun Johnson and Kieran Foran develop as a halves pairing.

They looked really promoting in the Anzac test... This is going to be an extended chance to see two of the best young halves in the NRL go together.

I agree with you it will be great, but i hope Shaun realises he needs to prove himself and not hyde for most of the game, because we have all been patience waiting for him to prove himself. Kieran well that is a different story how he didn't get the picked for the player of the year. He was the man this year!!!

Sonny Bill world's best player lol. Hyperbole at it's best

He has more Premierships than Thurston, Inglis, Smith or Slater in about half the seasons lol

His influence in leading the mighty Roosters from 13th last season to a crushing minor Premiership and Grand Final victory in 2013 make him the worlds best.

Is Sonny. Is God.

Maybe next time he can actually tackle Inglis instead of being completely owned.

Lol!!

SBW was MotM in that game. He ripped Souffs a new one as we won the Minor Premiership.

SBW is also 2013 GF winner ... leading the way for his team throughout the finals series.

Wtf did Inglis do besides disappear in the last 3 games of the season?

Soooo much fail.

So does Matt Ballin, Brent Kite, Steve Matai, the Stewarts and Watmough.

Roosters also got a new coach and six new players this year plus several promising debutants.

Anyone else sick of idiotic Roosters fans?

Something that needs to be considered is the promotion this whole affair does for Money Bill, who'll be playing Yawnion next year.

While it's all well and good to say it'll be great for the world cup having him there and all this publicity is great, it's also showboating RU's player for next year as well.

If you don't like hearing Roosters fans love SBW, just wait until he abandons them and see their reaction change in a hurry.

Lol fail. Again.

Stay or go, SBW has cemented his status as a Roosters legend forever. Nothing can change that.

It was always a 1-year deal and we'll see after that. He came, he saw, he kicked ass ... and won us a Premiership.

Goodluck to him from hear on in, whether he stays or goes.

Roosters legend forever.

Well, love him or hate him, SBW knows how to get people talking about him. Ten pages and counting on this forum alone.

Sonny is a revelation in rugby league it is his roots

His appearance with the cup winning Blacks was just another experience in his prodigal journey back to the worlds toughest competition in Australia.

That he played for my team this season meant I could see him play each week & talk to him occasionally down at the beach. Never mind the bull$hit, he is a special athlete with strong mentality & a dedication to his preparation that goes beyond the norm.

He will bring a focus to the Kiwis the same way he did for the roosters & it will rub off & engender confidence in the team synergy. The roosters pack ruled in 2013, kept more teams to nil in defence than any other for the past 30 years or so.

They intimidated the Souths/Burgess pack, they owned Jeremy Smith, which is why he cant make it, a trail of broken bodies is testament to how tough they were, simply they DOMINATED....

Most of the Roosters pack will contribute successfully to the Kiwi pack which will give our promising halves combo & our spine what it takes to kick some ar$e in this competition:p
