I wonder if Robbo’s had the same “too many times” conversation with the player who has been charged with hip drops more than any other player in history?

Would be a bit awkward you’d imagine since he coaches him.
He had the conversation with him, on Sunday and he doesn't coach Elliot Whitehead.

Doesn't this charge now tie Whitehead with Lindsay Collins for most charges? Either way, is it too many times for Lindsay as well? Or are those ok? Robbo didn't have much to say when Lindsay buckled Tom Eisenhuth's knee with a much worse tackle. Said it "wasn't for him to talk about".

Hypocritic sludge.

No, it puts him one in front

I don't know if Robbo has spoken to Lindsay or not, I would put money on it that he has. That will stay behind closed doors just like Whitehead's would of had he a) not approached the roosters immediately after the game and b) not sooked to the media about it.

he literally waited over smith who’d dove on a loose ball and refused to put a hand on him to make him held, then launched onto his legs as he got to his feet.

Afterwards he proceeded to sook to the press that Robbo hurt his feelings by not letting him into the dressing room after the game as though anyone owes him a chance to clear his conscience.

Enjoy praying for a draw between the knights and dolphins champ

The only thing that happened was he lost balance and that caused him to fall on his legs accidentally.

"Clear his conscience"? That's hilarious. He was just trying to be a decent person.

Re your last point, champ, there is no need to pray. I didn't expect us to make the 8 this year. Just beating your soulless "club" was worth the overall incompetence.

I’m still not convinced he’s a great coach tbh. Unlimited cap and resources and all he does is whinge. Coaches would kill for the type of advantages that club has.
He got lucky that Uncle Nick got Cooper Cronk to join the Club. Cooper was Captain Coach for those two Premierships. When Cooper retired we all know he his record against Top 4 teams has been absolutely abysmal.

He is not the Super Coach that some in the media make him out to be.

He is also one of the biggest hypocrites in the NRL. His side has been responsible for some of the most appalling on field incidents this season. And it’s always nothing to see here.

When the shoe is on the other foot he cry’s like a baby.

he was covering over him waiting for him to get up. You can see he was initially hoping to rip the ball out then once that wasn’t on the table he just waited til smith got up and jumped on
This is some of the most cooked shit you'll read on this forum
Danish has Whitehead looming behind Smith ready to him with his finisher like its a f**king WWE match

Roosters fans are in absolute shambles here, concocting fan fiction to justify their big soppy sook of a coach.
Easts fans use to have pride. Look at how far they've fallen.

He wasn't trying to hurt him, it was an awkward situation as Smith dived on a loose ball and braced himself expecting someone to jump on to him or at least touch him.

Instead he just stood over him, presumably wafting until he moved to try and strip the ball or take him to the sideline. The ref handled it very poorly and said nothing for what seemed like a long time until he then said play on and quickly after surrender.

In that situation, Smith shouldn't be expected to get up and play on and if the defender chooses not to touch him then the ref should just call surrender and have him play the ball.

For some of us Robinson appeared to be a good guy with a good heart and healthy view of the game up to about three years or four ago. Now he just comes across a whinging hypocrite. Last weekend all he did was consolidate a view many of us have moved to where he is a spiteful and malicious asshole. How times have changed.

This narrative always gets a good run complete with 2013 never getting a mention for some reason nor the fact that almost half his work comes prior to Cooper Cronk. The facts are below

2013 - 1st (premiers)
2014 - 1st (PF)
2015 - 1st (PF)
2016 - 15th
2017 - 2nd (PF)
2018 - 1st (premiers)
2019 - 2nd (premiers)
2020 - 4th (SF)
2021 - 5th (SF)
2022 - 6th (EF)
2023 - 7th (SF)
2024 - Top 4 (TBD)

So that all equals

- 11 finals appearances
- 8 top 4 finishes
- 4 MP
- 3 GFs
- 3 premierships
- 14-10 in finals games

Elite by anyone's definition. You can keep hating if you want but we will gladly keep him

Bellamy in the same timeframe. It's the best comparison as he has a) coached the whole time b) been at the one club and c) had the services of cooper Cronk for 5 of those seasons

2013 - 3rd (SF)
2014 - 6th (EF)
2015 - 4th (PF)
2016 - 1st (GF)
2017 - 1st (premiers)
2018 - 2nd (GF)
2019 - 1st (PF)
2020 - 2nd (premiers)
2021 - 1st (PF)
2022 - 5th (EF)
2023 - 3rd (PF)
2024 - 1st (TBD)

- 12 finals appearances
- 10 top 4 finishes
- 5 MP
- 4 GF
- 2 Premierships
- 14-12 in finals games

Maybe whitehead shouldn’t have had a grand cry to the media in the first place if he didn’t want to be called out for being a grub

He made a subdued comment and told the truth. The crying came from Robinson and clowns on here.

And maybe Sobbo have should elected not to comment about repeat offenders as it relates to foul play and careless actions when he's publicly defended guys like JWH, Victor Radley if he didn't want to get called out for being a big sook and a hypocritic

And maybe you could get your f**king head out of the Sobbo's colon and sort it the f**k out, mate. This is pathetic behaviour from your fanbase and coach. You're suppose to be a competition heavy weight. This the kind of shit we'd expect from some down and out spoon team.

A lot of maybe's for us all to reflect on as we head towards finals footy
