New team the Hospital Roosters will be playing this weekend

  • Suallii oiut concussion
  • Manu out hamstring
  • Billy Smith out broken jaw
  • Toia out ACL in training

The backline is Tedesco and anyone who can stand upright

Damn, I hate seeing teams get wrecked like this come finals time. Storm likely in the same situation too at least - surely the head clash boys will be out with concussions, Coates with his ankle (?), papy with his points at everything, and I think bald beardface did something too?

Whoever wins is in line for a hiding against the panthers anyway :(

The Roosters and Storm should merge and see if they can make one decent team between them to take on the Panthers...

Hughes out for Storm too.

If I was the coaches, I'd wrap everyone in bubble wrap, avoid all training and skip the warm ups.

If there's one guy that can win a game by himself, it's probably Munster. Grant has also torn the Roosters to shreds.

Hoping that doesn't happen tonight.

Roosters pack could be good. Makeshift backline out wide might be errrr, porous?

Nelson starting. If the Roosters can get a roll on him, that's a big advantage.

First 20 minutes might decide the match. Who am I kidding? lol. It often does...

Nothing to lose, everything to cock-a-doodle-doo 🐓

Storm vs Italian football team. Hard to tell who flops or is more dirty lol

Or has more trophies taken away for cheating

No knock on?

Then penalty, score.

gg. I get who's meant to win now.

No nelson, gives Roosters an advantage...

My god I’d be dirty if I was the roosters right now. Grant makes an obvious knock on literally directly in front of the ref, a metre away, then the storm go the length and score.

10-6, meh.

It's theoretically possible

Undefeated Queensland Origin Legend Corey Allan playing well for the roosters. Looking a bit thicc haha

I’m not confident that the storm will win this tbh. I can just see them falling off and probably getting someone binned.

Collins you mf man!

Walker nails it!

That’s crushing for the roosters.

They were lucky the ref didn’t penalise them for the high clear high shot on grant so I guess it just got them in another way.

Warbrick gotta be up there for rookie of the year. Has had a great season, really like him.

Prolly fair enough Storm win. Hope you all don't mind me barracking or rooting for anyone else but for you.

I wrote off the Roosters in May, and at one point thought they could challenge for the wooden spoon, so to make it this far was a bit of a surprise. But if you can't make top four, you have very little chance of winning.

Bandwagon Broncos!
