Game Day: Chooks v Manly [Round 1, 2021]

[Kalvin]

Should be passing to Walker!

Yes agree I think we will look a lot better when that happens (if that ever happens)

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Can't blame foz... sick of passing to Parker tbf!

No help from anyone and really dce has got nothing. Has he even done 1 good thing all game? He has given them 3 seven tackle sets. Dropped it twice and kills our momentum with dumb passes and kicks

 

[Rusty Cage]

Not watching the game, but checked the stats and it says Croker hasn’t had a run all game. Does this seem abysmally true or an outrageous mistake?

 

[Simonmyers11]

Surely this is a good time to bring on Shuster for some spark but has not even been picked in the 17. Dez selections this weekend have been diabolical

 

[Tragic Eagle]

Disappointed with DCE’s kicking game. Crocker would not make any other NRL side at 9 or 6. Parker and Garrick awful and not first grade material and a Sirro should be nick named the vice. Very disappointed and sad we are spoon contenders.

 

[madmax]

So what was the point of dropping Schuster & leaving Funa on the bench if not play him? I’m at a loss with the selection today!

 

[Jerry1]

That’s enough - I’m off to put a steak on the bbq

 

[Bring back the.... Biff?]

Foran has shown us why he needs to be 14..he would be great off the bench..schuster should be 6 but des with his dinosaur thinking and ways is being left behind by this fast changing game and we have to suffer

Dce needs to be dropped Foran to 7 and Schuster to 6. Time for dce to become a hooker he can tackle is fit and can pass

 

[Simonmyers11]

Its his passing game that is even worse, no idea. Some very avg performances this game so far.

 

[HoldenV8]

Yep, penalty is what I thought that should have been. Knock on from Tupou and Tedesco was offside.

And right on cue, Jake loses it.

 

[manlyfan76]

That’s enough - I’m off to put a steak on the bbq

I'm off to put my head in an oven.

 

[The Royal Soup]

We are a ****ing joke

can’t even do the basics like gold onto the ball

under 7s have more discipline that this farce of a team

 

[madmax]

Fvcken Jake.....useless! Not worth $200k!

 

[Av8r]

Not one official at our club would make the roosters management team.

I made my thoughts very clear in another thread and it is being laid bare today for all to see.

Insipid performance by a majority of the players, actually 14 of the 16 used and reflective of our administration and back office personnel.

They need to fix this up quick smart.

I agree totally

 

[Eagles4Life]

Garrick deserves to be dropped for the next game.

Yes he does. He should never have been picked. He should never be picked again. The same applies for Parker. Walker isn't a fullback and never will be. He is a centre and should be picked as a centre each week. Schuster HAS to come into the 17 somehow. So does Harper. Harper as fullback and Schuster on the bench. Personally, I think Schuster should start....perhaps in Suli's centre spot. Sironen benched for Davey. Ola'kata replaces Boyle. The rest we have to live with ....... but they all need to step up.

 

[Yaz Eagle]

Garrick needs to go. Next week should be Funa at wing and Walker at centre, with Harper to full back.

Put Schuster in the bench. Saab is where we should be focussing our attack on - speed, height and jump.

Forwards bring Cust in place of Croker and Davey to start.

You could see the Roosters changed their attack from Saab’s side to Garrick after their first couple of sets.

 

[AndWeDon'tCare]

Schuster is already on the bus.

The roosters bus.

This is not a silly comment.

Take note those that matter and it is VERY REAL the threat.

 

[Simonmyers11]

Dce needs to be dropped Foran to 7 and Schuster to 6. Time for dce to become a hooker he can tackle is fit and can pass

Foran is struggling as well. Beaten by Teddy for a few tries and gave them one on a platter. The whole team needs so much work. Very worrying

 

[joeboy]

I thought the off season would evaporate the contempt I have for some of our players, but Parker, croker snd Garrick can get the **** out of the club.

And des, what is des even doing?

I’d like to hear what all the apologists for the club have to say after watching this debacle of a performance

Doesn’t look like we will win many games this year. Average players and a coach who can’t coach anymore

 

[Terry Zarsoff]

No help from anyone and really dce has got nothing. Has he even done 1 good thing all game? He has given them 3 seven tackle sets. Dropped it twice and kills our momentum with dumb passes and kicks

He needs to get back into the SuperCoach contest.

Just kidding. I am not watching the second half.
