Live Match Discussion Round 22: Brisbane vs Sydney

Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Tupou takes the roosters try scoring record! Congrats!

Whirlybird - 2.4yr

As expected, props shouldn’t be allowed to challenge haha

2
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Can the chooks mount a comeback?! Will the refs try saving tackle win the game for the roosters?!

2
No1 - 2.4yr

Another top call from Whirlybird!

I'm gonna make one of these games soon! Maybe even tonight!

No1 - 2.4yr

Lemme guess: The Chooks had enough ball and in attacking areas, but just didn't look like scoring.

They've had no zip or creativity all year, and make whoever they are playing look like defensive specialists.

Meanwhile on the defensive side, it's usually 1 set, 1 try lol. Roosters can't defend 2 sets in a row.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Yep! They controlled the field position in the first half, they were monstering the broncos pack and starting their own sets on their 30-40m line every time.

2
No1 - 2.4yr

Sigh. It's so predictable, I feel like Nostradamus!

2
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

2 vs 12, the roosters will be looking to push for a finals spot being only 2 points behind 8th.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Herbie really turning into one of the best centres in the game, devastated that we let him go.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Geez I hate that from the refs - call six again for the roosters only for them to drop the ball literally 2 seconds later, and they don’t go back and give them a penalty. That’s not how 6 again should work. Roosters for dudded there.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Cracker of a try for Mam! That pickup at pace was just mwah chefs kiss

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

A shocker on each side of the field from Walsh haha

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

JWH doing JWH things.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

If I’m the broncos I’m running at JWH a lot for the next few mins, you just know he’s gonna keep giving away penalties.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Butcher failed the HIA, not good for the roosters. Roosters now getting stupid and doing a cannonball.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Roosters controlling the field position well so far, despite the score line.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Nice kick return by Mariner. Got a few good backups on the wings in Mariner and Arthurs, hope we can keep Mariner as well.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Penalty count is getting a bit out of control at 6-1, but most of them were pretty blatant so can’t really be too mad.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Hmm this is likely a shepherd.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Interesting that the ref now mentions that a six again was given so if it’s a no try it’s a penalty to the roosters, yet before when they got 6 again and then instantly dropped it there’s no penalty.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

As much as I think Walters is an absolute plodder who is our weakest link, he’s picked up his game the last few weeks in attack at least.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Not sure why the referee took the broncos back 15m to the try line in D then…..

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Carrigan!!!! First try!!!!

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

The Little General V2 has really turned up the second half of this season. He’s steering the team around amazingly well. Easily one of the best signings we’ve ever made. If he stays uninjured we will give this premiership a real crack.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Ugh here comes the right on half time try for the roosters haha

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

What is this referee even doing? He called time off with 3 seconds still on the shot clock and 1 second left on the clock. The broncos have 40 seconds to take the dropout, it should have just run the clock out.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Well I am in for a half time treat. I have some flat Pepsi and some plain woolworths water crackers. I know, I am somewhat of a party animal.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Great challenge Capes! Love my Ipswich Jets boys!

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Almost an absolute beauty of a try!

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

These refs are useless, I swear.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Liking what I’ve seen of Willison so far.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Geez he was quick to call this offside. Looks fine to me.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Prop challenges rarely end well haha

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

That’s a shocker of a video ref decision.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Capes would never do such a mean thing.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Another terrible refereeing display where the broncos have got the benefit.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Well that’s complete bullshit. Smoothy was under the sticks untouched without question had the ref not gotten in the way.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Ugh I hate these rubbish crusher tackle penalties.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Oh I forgot our previous bludger hooker the turnip was on the roosters team.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

What a pickup from the bootlaces by Walsh.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Absolutely centimetre perfect kick by smoothy. That was a Cameron smith kick.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Rugby Australia have got to be looking for the get out clauses in Suaaliis contract, he’s an absolute passenger.

1
No1 - 2.4yr

Done little all year there. Chuck him back on the wing?

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Honestly if I'm the roosters I'm cutting him. Let him go to rugby early if they'll take him. He's not going to be at the club for much longer, and as you say he has done little all season.

2
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Mammmmmmmmmmmmm

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

And that’s all she wrote! Good performance, still definitely room for improvement.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Could be sitting down for 10. I don’t think he should, but wouldn’t surprise me.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Well that comeback did not go as planned.

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Now now staggs, don’t mush the cheese. He’s a good bloke

1
Whirlybird - 2.4yr

Hoping for a better game than last week from the broncos. Their handling was atrocious against the bunnies, really need to fix that to go deep in the finals.
