POST GAME Round 16 - Roosters vs Broncos

[Dee]

Build the club around Haas, Carrigan and Dearden. The rest are terrible and not Bronco standard.

Also, sack the entire coaching staff, conditioning staff, the board, the salary cap person, the recruitment and retention person, the CEO, and anybody else that came in via Anthony Seibold.

Build the club up again. It's time and is needed.

No words to describe tonight but woeful, disgraceful, pathetic and embarrassing will do.

 

[vertigo]

The worst part is that I don't even feel angry or sad anymore after these results, I'm starting to think I've lost my love for the club.

When 40 point losses are normal then how else are you supposed to react.

I feel nothing, and that's ok. Don't get emotionally invested for a few more years yet.

 

[rnabokov]

How about next year, 15 years without a comp.

Haven't won a minor premiership in two decades.

This old grey mare ain't what she used to be, ain't what she used to be, ain't what she used to be.

Well, there are some positives in the negatives. A new CEO, new coach (hopefully the right one), watching Dearden develop, and the rest our young brigade move forward, and last but not least, a new FB at long last, one that doesn't stifle our attack and disappear in defence when and where we need him most

 

[Sproj]

Man listening to Robinson’s presser was so depressing, it was clear they viewed this as a training run tonight, they were looking to improve certain areas and were allowed to try a few things. Our club are the also rans of the comp.

The contribution of fullbacks to a quality attack, their involvement:

Darius Boyd

James Tedesco

 

[DigitalDaz]

There is now no doubt that there is a agenda to destroy the Broncos. The refereeing throughout this season since COVID lockdowns is bent toward losing games for Brisbane. This is indisputable.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

This club has become a local hangout for overrated, big headed hacks who couldn't give a shit about winning premierships. It's all about the money.

Can't say I have been watching the Cowboys but I think that can be said for most of QLD. It comes with the territory of being cellar dwellers. Don't worry as an experience campaigner down here I can show you the ropes of dealing with poor calls week in week out.

 

[I bleed Maroon]

Gus qustioning our retention and recruitment, yet no mention of our outs.

Milford
Haas
Glenn
Oates
TPJ
Bird
Flegler
Isaako
Coates
Lodge
Turpin

That's 11, and arguably 9-10 of those are from our starting 13.

Of those listed, I would keep the bolded. The rest can either re-apply for their job or **** off frankly.

Pretty harsh on Flegler if you're picking Coates. Both are just raw potential at the moment. Flegler is inconsistent and has a tendency to drop the ball, but Coates hasn't really threatened much except in the air (and when defending unfortunately).

Selective stats. How about team missed tackles? 37. Boyd 1. Sure, blame Boyd. All his fault his team mates missed 36 tackles. Kidding.

 

[Midean]

First time Roosters have racked up 100, and 2x 50s, on an opponent since 1935.

 

[coreyh88]

Riki has been pretty impressive. Could have a big future if we play our cards right

 

[NSW stables]

We had a decent amount of ball in attacking positions (early in the game) but again we had no plans, shapes or plays. Our attack is similar to an U/9s structure- a few forward runs, a straight backline (no changes of directions or people running lines into gaps) and then a kick.

Our defence is so soft and unorganised. It was clear in the second half that the roosters plan was to exploit our right hand side. It was not complicated, all they did was run a player at dearden and staggs, and when one of them were slow to get up from the tackle, they would play the shortside with an overlap. How do we have coaches, trainers and firstgrade players not see this? Furthermore, why dont we do these things? We get a quick play the ball, and we have a forward do a hit up!

Can't get missed tackles if you don't get a hand on 'em.

 

[Big Pete]

In case you guys missed it, Channel 9 trotted Gus out to deliver one of his pre-Origin speeches imploring Broncos fans to stick around and watch their team.

Emotional Gould's passionate plea for Broncos fans

'I hear about this Queensland spirit, stand by your mate'

Naturally Gus spent the rest of the coverage absolutely burying the club and telling the fans it's going to take years to recover from, but I don't think I've ever seen 9 resort to such desperate measures.
