NRL - Finals Week 1

[tommy]

I'd love to see a journo quote JDs finals record comments back to him post game haha.

Still a long way to go. But yeah truth be told I'd love for Sharks or Manly to wipe the floor with them too.

im sure a small part of the roosters wish they saved this performance for the grand final.

be interesting to see if they can replicate it in semi final or even the second half of this game.

because they have been untouchable and even storm would struggle against this 40 minute performance.

I think they'll win next week but the Storm will wipe them off the park in week 3 anyway.

i would love to punch slater he’s a smug prick

 

[Renegade]

Souths are being touched in inappropriate places by the roosters

 

[Galah]

Is Lockyer out of the smith,jt,Cronk,slater. The only non dickhead? Or is just because they like to take stabs at the broncs why they grind me the wrong way?

Can you please show on this doll where the bad men touched you?

 

[CaptainHook]

Super impressive from the Roosters.

High quality Rugby League.

Feel a bit for Souths. Probably hard to beat the same team twice in two weeks.

Go out there and save face and come back strong next week.

They had Storm down 18-0 in the grand final. If they're on, Storm are the only team that can even go close but 1-17 the Roosters are just straight up better.

Their 1-7 is fucking ridiculous.

I think Wayne has developed a nasty habit of turning into quiet brooding old man when things are clearly not going his way. His body language in the sheds there at HT was not good.

 

[Broncos Maestro]

Roberts getting towelled up. Not quite fixed

His defense has always been suspect - makes fecking Shibasaki look like a god-damn defensive powerhouse!

 

[Jedhead]

I remember ducking behind the couch as a kid when Dr Who came on. I've got that same feeling if we have to play Rorters in this seasons finals.

I kinda feel like he never recovered from the 2015 gf loss either. The focus is always on the players though.

The Roosters attack is so damn hard to defend so, trite it might sound, the only way to beat them is to have an attack that's as slick as theirs. On that score, Souths are totally outclassed - great roster, but the attacking coach is a problem

Shiba is though he just can’t catch

We now stop the game for 5 minutes because a player has a fucking blood nose.
