Roosters vs Warriors Gameday Chatter [Round 6, 2022]

 

[wizards rage]

Just keep the intensity up.

Don’t care about the score as long as we perform.

 

[J_P]

I'm not voting lol.
Edit. Actually warriors 13+ just to see what the results are...

Last year, we turned up to the SCG and let the Morris boys rip us to shreds. IIRC, we ended up getting steamrolled but we were in the game for a decent period. This year, the Roosters I think are not as intimidating as in previous years. I smell an upset if we continue to improve our performances, and we are better than the last couple of weeks.

I just have a feeling in my bones that we could get something out of this game.. I’m expecting the forwards to cancel each other out…. But I have a feeling we are due a performance from our spine… Reece Walsh perhaps might be due his breakout performance of 2022.

I don’t expect a blow out… if we turn up and win the first 20 minutes, I’m expecting we will go close.

Warriors by 2

 

[Lance155]

We will definitely win this.

 

[DallyM]

I'm backing the boys for a upset.... Go Warriors

 

[j-bob]

If they play at the intensity they have been over the last three or so weeks, I expect them to win, if they don’t win I will be less pissed off if they have given it a good shake.

It will be the bunker that beats us, that “push” in last nights game has changed the landscape a little. I expect the warriors to be hammered by the precedent and for it to be ok again after the siren.

Here's some facts I've found to keep myself amused ahead of this afternoons game vs the Sydney Roosters:

- In the period between the 20th & 50th minutes the Warriors have outscored their opposition by 58 points to 32 so far this season.
- The Warriors have beaten the Roosters 22 times which, tied with the Knights, is the most victories against any opposition club. Despite 2 less wins over the Warriors the Roosters still hold a positive points differential of 237 against us.
- Under referee Ziggy Przeklasa-Adamski the Warriors have won 3 of their last 4 games compared to the Roosters winning 2 from their previous 5 under him.
- At the Sydney Cricket Ground the Roosters have won 19 of their last 24 games.
- The Warriors have conceded less penalties than their opposition in each of their last 3 matches (a combined 17-25) but the 6 Agains have favoured the opposition (12-3).

What's on the menu tonight? Has to be Rooster.

Let's go!

With so many of our Key forwards missing, I don't see how we lay a platform for this game.

Last week Lodge and Murchie were huge in the middle.

The only times we beat the roosters we ran over them.

I don't like saying this, but I expect the makeshift pack will get folded hitting the ball up, and held down flat on their backs for too long in bad feild position to do anything positive.

On paper before the injuries we were a punchers chance of a win, and pretty good odds of at least competing.

Now it feels like we have destabilized one edge and stripped the guts out of the engine.

Still....hopefully all our men play the bloody game of their lives and the Roosters have to fight hard till the end to beat us.

I'm OK with losing the next two games, it is expected, so being realistic you might as well say today is about improvement.....if we compete it's an improvement.

I don't buy into tge Roosters playing poorly. Many recent seasons they start out Shakey.

But most top teams find their MOJO vs us, they smash us, get played into form, and go on a run.

We've only had 3 six agains across our last 3 games?! Christ, some teams get that many in about 30 seconds.

 

[janfin]

The sign is already up.Just keep that ball rolling upwards Boys .Kia .Kaha Just keep believing like I do Bring on kick off

You're right. We conceded 3 last week in the space of 52 seconds!

 

[Toookey]

No slow starts today - 4 out of 5 games this year we’ve been behind the 8 ball, either 12-0 or 12-6 down after 20 minutes.

The reality is if we want to give the competition even a light shake up, this is a game we have to win.
We’re going to have to beat some top 8 teams, it’s early in the season and Roosters haven’t been playing great so I hope this is one we give a red hot crack

 

[Cces]

I think we're heavy underdogs & rightly so. A win is not out of the question though if we complete our sets at 85% & our spine produce some magic or if Radley/JWH get sent off early

In blackpool at the parents this weekend, will listen for the yelling from over the hill.

What's the deal with our bench today? Why are we carrying both Nikorima and Otukolo?

We've lost Lodge and have seemingly brought in another hooker to replace him...am I missing something?

Problem is we have very few props available with the amount of injuries and suspensions atm, unfortunately.

As far as experienced NRL forwards go, the cupboard is completely bare bro.

They're just throwing in guys who have had some games and hoping they make some tackles and give us some Dummy half runs to counter Lodges absence.

It could work if we get the Lions share of ball.

Out of it though hey.

Kearney used to play two hookers at once for NZ and that was very effective, but TL could hit hard like Jazz so.....

 

[Lance155]

You're right. We conceded 3 last week in the space of 52 seconds!

Yep and despite what people on here say we deserved all 3!
