Chooks at Plodders Discussion...

main question mark over the Roosters for me is how much monday's win took out of them, esp given the short turnaround.

fcuking eels appear to be floating on air, just like this time last year

Roosters on a 4 game winning streak (Raiders (A), Bunnies (H), Dogs (A) and Broncos (A). Offense clicking, defense not so much.

Refs appear to have some sort of unrepentant hate towards them.

Monday night victor hoo-doo in full effect (Winning team has gone 5-9 SU the following round). Chooks are 0-2 so far this season after playing on Monday night, getting smashed by two NRL powerhouse's i.e. the Knights (Round 10) and Sharks (Round 13), obviously they weren't in the form they are now.

Pearce gets the green light from the team doctor to return after nursing a nasty left clitoral strain last week. Myles back aswell, I think. Hargreaves and Symonds out. Leilua and Conn questionable.

Eels on a 3 game winning streak (Cowboys (H), Panthers (A) and Bulldogs (A). Offense clicking, defense not so much.

The Hayne train has been upgraded to the Hayne plane and he even has a post-try celebration to prove it. Sydney football media is in a frenzy. It appears the Plods are about to make like deja-vu and go on the post-season run mirroring last year's heroics.

The guys in the funky electric pink shirts love them some Hayne.

Believe the Plods line-up is as per program.

Roosters hadn't beat anyone of note until Monday night, when Brisbane put on a stinker.

Eels haven't beat anyone of note either.

Eels couldn't score for the last hour odd against the Dogs.

Neither team is as good as the media would like you to think.

Short turnaround must favour the Eels.

Pearce coming back may be more of a hinderence than a help, as Canasta / Carney looked to revel in his strained clitoris-imposed absence.

This looks like OVER for me...........

Roosters defence isnt that good, these guys try and outscore everyone.........

Are Parra that good......They beat Cowboys....That is a team that had to go 90 mins to beat a Knights team that was down 40 nil at half time the week before........

This Cows team the week before led 16-0 at one stage against the Tigs and was lucky not to lose 70-16........That game i seriously cannot remember watching a team and thinking they are a chance to score off every set no matter where they started it off

Then last night with the score 16 all with 5 mins to go, they let Michael the flash Gordon get the ball 50 out from dummy half and score untouched under the sticks........i would NOT look at that game - Parra v Cows as any form guide........

The game against the Panthers was impressive, they were behind and were forced to throw the ball around in which they thrive.....That was a good win......

Against the Dogs, well, that first 20 mins was a familiar sight, they simply embarresed themselves with that defence rather than anything Parra did.......That was bad..........Do you think if the dogs defended with the energy and intesnity they did last night Parra would have scored like that - NO FUCKING WAY, Although, the dogs were finishing very very strongly that game........Because Hannant grazed Haynes penis with that supposed charge down attempt, the refs got jelous that it was there hand stroking Haynes penis so they penalised him and that was the game.......

This game smells over for me......i couldnt back the roosters here
