amen !! they could play a sock puppet on roo and he would still be ineffective it the hawks control the footy thinking we are sure things cause they got no-one for roo is silly its more about who gets the ball first and who uses it better !! play like we did last week we are there play like we did agains WC it wont matter whos playing on Roost.byron wrote:I know it's obvious, but having someone to take on Roo is only a small part of their defensive plan. Great for us if Croad doesn't play and Roo is manned by a less suitable player and Kosi is therefore manned by someone else etc.Otiman wrote:And if he doesn't play, Roo will kick 10.Saintschampions08 wrote:Croad's overrated, he played last time and Roo kicked 6.
But the key will be the midfield pressure our guys can apply. Winning the contested footy all over the park is what's going to win us this game, not just Roo. If our contested pressure is good and the ball's coming into a reasonably open forward 50, that's how we want it to be.
Bateman, Croad in doubt for Prelim
