Sydney Roosters - Contenders or Pretenders?

[NF_47]

Alright, we have a few discussion threads on various teams in the competition, saw this article and thought we needed one for the Roosters. Where does everyone see the Roosters finishing? Do you think Carney should be allowed to play? What does everyone see as their best lineup with the current situation? Discuss here.

Carney-less Roosters can still go all the way: Smith

SMH

Talk about being optimistic!

Smith is basically saying Carney won't be back this season, wouldn't be a bad thing for him or the club. I can't see them finishing anywhere higher than 9th to be honest, just think they're making up the numbers!

For the remainder of the year, I think this will be their strongest line up:

1. Minichello
2. Linnett
3. Carney
4. Kenny Dowall
5. Perrett
6. Anasta (C)
7. Pearce
8. Ryles
9. Freind
10. Kennedy
11. Aubbuson
12. Symonds
13. Myles (VC)

14. Riddell
15. Hargreaves
16. Nu'uasaula
17. Masoe

Pretty much the same side as yours NF_47. I think they'll finish maybe 10th or 11th.

To make the top 8 for sure but won't do much from there. 5th-8th.

I think they will struggle for the next month or so but will find there straps after that an finish about 9th

 

[BIG DOG]

Pretenders.

 

[The yeller]

they wont make the 8, if they need pearce to be the playmaker


he goes missing in every pressure game, the roosters needed him to stand up
