[Round 22, 2021] Broncos vs Roosters

[theshed]

29 game career:

4 wins - 25 losses

He has now gone a whole season as a starting halfback without winning a game, wowsers.

Hard to bag a guy’s win record when the majority of losses happened at our club. It’s like laughing at your ex girlfriend because all of her boyfriends have been losers.

Carrigan is like 13 wins - 36 losses
Cobbo is 0 / 3.

No bronco from the last 2 years has a favourable record.

You can however, laugh at the cowboys for being infected by our loserness.

Lucky for him he'll still only turn 21 next year, so when the Cows drop him he'll still be young enough to develop his game in QLD Cup.
I'll put Dearden on the same boat as Flegler. Both are still very young, but if they don't show improvement next year I'll probably join the wagon.

Flegler has shown a hell of a lot more than Dearden. Flegler has at least shown he can be a pretty handy first grader.. Dearden has shown if he has an absolute blinder, he could be a below average first grader and sneak away with 100 games before going to England and also being mediocre there.

I don't care about the club, the record is atrocious. I mean, has this ever happened before? Will it ever happen again?

More to the point, going to the Cows, they were actually competitive and winning, he got there and they haven't won since. This is some seriously amazing stuff. It is unheard of, surely.

Brayden Williame has seen some success this year but he started his career 4 wins 29 losses

He continued the trend last year losing all 5 games he appeared in for the dragons (total: 4 wins 34 losses).

This season he’s managed to add 7 more wins to his tally bringing his total record up to a respectable: 11 wins from 46 games.

From memory he held the record for most NRL games without a win, with his first win coming after something like 16 games (no idea the actual number).

not quite on the same level but I remember Nathan Merritt played 200 odd games before he played a finals game. imagine playing 10 seasons worth and not playing a single finals game, not even getting bundled out in week 1? that's a fucking grind right there.

Brooks is on a similar streak I think.

Chris Sandow 2008 - 2015: 159 games no finals (and never will).

Luke Brooks 2013 - Present: 162 games no finals

 

[Sproj]

And for poor Brooks, there would have been a lot of broken hope in there too as the Tigers almost always finish 9th.

 

[Allo]

Oh no @Porthoz you just hate to see this.

He’s taken the early guilty plea btw. Out for three weeks

No stress Roosters fans.

They’ll simply apply, and the NRL will approve, for them to sign Fifita on a short term loan deal from the Titans.

[Jedhead]

Have they moved Isaako into the centres?

[theshed]

Almost, Kev. Almost.

 

[Alex Wingnut]

Cobbo Training at centre too, I think they have plan for next year and I'm Liking it.

 

[McHunt]

TEAM LIST TUESDAY

Changes: half, wing, centre

Dubbed: Kelly, Coates, Cobbo
Snubbed: Croft, Isaako, Arthars

 

[Sproj]

What has Isaako done wrong on the wing?

So something like this?

1. Niu
2. Coates
3. Cobbo
4. Farnworth
5. Oates
6. Gamble
7. Kelly
8. Haas
9. Levi
10. Kennedy
11. Glenn
12. Riki
13. Hetherington

14. Paix (if fit) / Croft
15. Robati
16. Willison
17. Bullemor

Well, at least the youth are all getting a run I suppose and I wonder what this means for Isaako moving forward.
