Conversion sucessful, 28-16.

Roosters come in at half time at 28-16.
An interesting half of football. Despite the Titans dominating early, it was the Roosters for the rest of the match. We have had excellent go forward, and are clearly dominating.
Roosters by 20 imo.

Mat Rogers in for the Titans, and scores a soft try, much like one the Roosters scored before.
Game starting to even up.

Game evenly poised at the moment. Josh Graham was the try scorer.
Goal to Mat Rogers from the sideline to even it up.
C'MON ROOSTERS!!!

Titans possible try here.
I don't think he got it down though.

The very next play Jeffery is in, and the Titans lead 32-28.
Conversion unsucessful, and the score remains 32-28 in the Titans favour.
C'MON YOU ROOSTERS!!!

Roosters have been so ****ing pathetic. If we play like this for the rest of the season we'll comfortably miss the 8.

Riley Brown the hero 
Love how Matty Johns raved for ages about the "shock" move of Preston to the halves. Only won a Dally M and a Premiership there...

Firstly, what a thriller!!!
Secondly, the Roosters sould have won that, but well done Gold Coast, you deserved it and wanted it more than we did. Congratulations to Mat Rogers in particular. And the best thing (for the Titans) was they did it without the likes of Scott Prince, Mark Minichiello and many other big name players, who I can't recall at the moment.
Thirdly, the refereeing in that went on in that match was worse than dire. If all the calls had of gone correctly, Roosters would have had a massive chance to win. In the last 15 seconds, a Titan clearly knocked it on and the Referee re-set the tackle count.
Fourthly, in the last set that the Titans had, the Roosters should have tried to put some hits on and knock the ball free.
Fifthly, the defence from both teams was deplorable. Until the 65th minute, when the Titans really started to lift in defence, both teams were letting in tries left right and centre. I am really disappointed with our (the Roosters) efforts, and we should have played better than that.
Lastly, Shannon Walker silenced his critics. He played a solid game, and was involved in the last try saving tackle. And what about Jeffery (or whoever it was) who pretty much caught the game when he caught the bomb from Anasta.

I would've been ashamed if we won that, we were a complete joke in defence. Ball-watched everytime someone ran at the line, what a joke. Winning games like that glosses over poor performances whereas now the players who performed sub-par will get deservedly lambasted.

Can nay blame the ref when you get that try given when the fela puts it down well short of the line in the first half.
No quality side with a lead like the Bondi Bulldogs had should ever have lost. They were soft, and demo-ed for all of us why they cannot win the comp.

What about Newcatle beating the Ruff? Makes Parra's form last week look outstanding, doesn't it?

My God! I'm 0-2 after tonights' effort. You just know it's going to be a bad tipping week when you get nothing on Friday night.
What makes it worse is I was quite confident this week.

Yeah, in the same boat here.
Honestly couldn't foresee the injury destroyed Titans beating the competition leaders away from home.
Supports my theory that if you put money on every single outsider in the NRL each week you'll have made some money by the end of the season.

I was just coming in here to write the same thing. I had dreams of getting all of them this week.

Haha. Same. This is really the first week of the competition that I was confident of getting at least 6. My only doubt was the Panthers/Knights (which proved to be true). Every other week there's been at least 2 or 3 games I thought could go either way.

Exact same here. I tipped both games wrong and I too was quietly confident that I would get over 5. 0 from 2 atm.

I only saw bits and pieces of the Knights v Panthers game, but it seemed like every time I looked at the screen in the pub Kurt Gidley was doing something very good. I didn't realise how good he was until last night.

Atleast there is one thing that you can always tip right in the NRL. The Sharks to choke at the back end of season. TBF to Sharks we were just gun tonight.

****ing Parramatta. Heartless dolts not even trying. I'm trying to raise my son and daughter as supporters,and they turn this **** out every week.
Season over. Sack Hagan - I always say never trust a man who has no chin - look at Michael Vaughan. No doubt Hagan's in the sheds now wrapping the boys over the wrist with a warm lettuce leaf, such is his disgust at their performance.
****s.
