He does speak about that a lot if you listen to interviews and press conferences and even bringing in players.

He's like, yep, you know, Robson, I think he'll really suit the way that Roosters play their football.

And I don't know what that is, but I hope that's evolving with the game.

Well, I look at it as being quite a high-risk style.

Yeah, and he's a bit iffy with his defensive reads at times as well, I think.

Yeah, sure.

Notoriously, our completion rate's horrible comparatively.

Discipline-wise.

Yeah, but I think, again, with moving forward with the game, it's, you know, giving away willy-nilly six agains and stuff like that is very costly.

If you're making 12 tackles in a row, like, it's very tolling.

And it's not as much as, you know, give away penalty, have your breather, kick for touch, set your line and go again.

It's fourth tackle, penalty, your line's not set, then they're rolling, rolling, rolling.

So it's not as...

I guess it's a bit more against you discipline-wise if you're giving away a lot of penalties.

Yeah, for sure.

Well, I think, like you said, it says on the jersey, we play for premierships and anything less would be a failure to a degree.

But I still think Robbo keeps his job, but I think some question marks would be raised.

We've also, don't get me wrong, we've...

but we've also had some pretty horrible injury runs.

Like 2021, we had a hot, like we, against Manly in the final, we had Drew Hutchinson and Lucky Lamb in our halves, like respectfully to them.
