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

Another top call from Whirlybird!
I'm gonna make one of these games soon! Maybe even tonight!
😘
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.
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.
Sigh. It's so predictable, I feel like Nostradamus!
Tupou takes the roosters try scoring record! Congrats!
As expected, props shouldn’t be allowed to challenge haha
JWH doing JWH things.
Butcher failed the HIA, not good for the roosters. Roosters now getting stupid and doing a cannonball.
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.
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.
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.
Nice kick return by Mariner. Got a few good backups on the wings in Mariner and Arthurs, hope we can keep Mariner as well.
Hmm this is likely a shepherd.
Ugh here comes the right on half time try for the roosters haha
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.
Carrigan!!!! First try!!!!
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.
Not sure why the referee took the broncos back 15m to the try line in D then…..
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.
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.
Great challenge Capes! Love my Ipswich Jets boys!
These refs are useless, I swear.
Almost an absolute beauty of a try!
Geez he was quick to call this offside. Looks fine to me.
Liking what I’ve seen of Willison so far.
That’s a shocker of a video ref decision.
Prop challenges rarely end well haha
Capes would never do such a mean thing.
2 vs 12, the roosters will be looking to push for a finals spot being only 2 points behind 8th.
Another terrible refereeing display where the broncos have got the benefit.
Ugh I hate these rubbish crusher tackle penalties.
Oh I forgot our previous bludger hooker the turnip was on the roosters team.
Well that comeback did not go as planned.
Now now staggs, don’t mush the cheese. He’s a good bloke
What a pickup from the bootlaces by Walsh.
Absolutely centimetre perfect kick by smoothy. That was a Cameron smith kick.
Rugby Australia have got to be looking for the get out clauses in Suaaliis contract, he’s an absolute passenger.
Done little all year there. Chuck him back on the wing?
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.
Mammmmmmmmmmmmm
And that’s all she wrote! Good performance, still definitely room for improvement.
Well that’s complete bullshit. Smoothy was under the sticks untouched without question had the ref not gotten in the way.
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.
Herbie really turning into one of the best centres in the game, devastated that we let him go.
Roosters controlling the field position well so far, despite the score line.
Cracker of a try for Mam! That pickup at pace was just mwah chefs kiss
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.
A shocker on each side of the field from Walsh haha
