Cant believe his career is over. It seems like only yesterday he started. Great man for the sport.

Yep, no matter the club, state or national allegiance, JT is universally loved.

There is a huge gap to fill now

Yeah, and not just with JT. Apparently there's 4000 NRL games, 180 Origins and 200 Tests worth of experience across all the players leaving us this season which is the most ever.

Storm v Rabbits. What a game!

What a disappointing game by the broncos.
In saying that I believe we over achieved this year in regards to injuries, young players coming through and a lack of a real game manager.
Attitude, mental weakness, leadership and defence are the things which hurt us also this year which must be addressed.

Yep, pretty uninspiring. Even though were we up after 10 minutes or whatever, you could see the Dragons had come to play and were way more fired up than the Broncos. Blew us off the park with ferocious tackling and powerful running.

Yeah, they were running hot and cold most of the season. Honestly, the player I'm quite disappointed in is Milford. He really needs to work on his ball security. Not sure if you guys noticed but he juggled so many balls. Then he has to rush his pass/kick. Needs to lift his game big time.

It was also frustrating watching Ben Hunt find space with long kicks time after time while our kickers booted every ball straight to a Dragon.

The young forward pack is quite encouraging. Just need to get consistent.

I agree
Also guys were like Oates, TPJ were clearly playing injured in that game.

Yep
Apparently Oates and Bennett had a pact to stir the press about his playing position next year.
What are the thoughts about the introduction of the WRL ?
Personally I am in favour of a separate comp of people who could still tear my head off. Some of these ..gal's... can sure play
Cheers .. and enjoy the semi's men

Interesting indeed. Plus Cronk's injury and Friend possibly being in report.
The roosters can't afford to make the same errors they did tonight against the Storm. Storm will punish them.
