Jesus Christ, can Channel 9 get off Pearce's cock for 5 minutes? He had fuck all to do with that try. The kick preceding it was a dud.
Don't care what anyone says. Brenko Lee is awful. Keary and Mitchell are giving him an absolute bath.
Luke Keary has been so poor over the past month. Almost to the point where I thought Robbo might hook him in that 2nd half. Still doing a lot of good stuff but just so loose in the rest of his play. Both the Dogs second half tries can be linked directly back to him.
Really like the form our forward pack is running into though. Shame we will lose a few to origin cause we are just starting to hit our straps. Even Napa looked a million times the player he has over the opening rounds. JWH finally starting to look like the player he was pre-ACL
How's Latrell Mitchell? Roosters very fucking thin at second row/centre if he's out this week. If he's out and Matterson/Aubusson are used there you'd be using #5 and #6 choice second rowers.
you'd think they would bring skd back for this week but then again they dropped him for about 10 weeks for a dv claim even when they knew he wasn't guilty so probably not
Robbo said it was not serious, it was just a hit to the sternum and the area he got hit is just really awkward and couldn't be helped with any injection etc. So I think he will be right. I don't mind either way, with a loss very likely, I think it's a good opportunity to test out the youngbloods. Might be time to give Nat Butcher a run even if he is a bit underdone coming back from injury.
Pretty much, it's going to be a loss just hoping it's not a smashing so we can actually get a look at players. If Latrell Mitchell is ruled out it wouldn't surprise me if Johnny Tuivasa Sheck gets brought it. I'm excited to see how Tetevano goes playing some longer minutes @ lock Matterson @ 2nd row for the first time this year since really bulking up Lindsay Collins making his debut
