Instant Reaction - Round 21 v The Storm

Thu, 24 Jul 2025 22:28:31 +1000

Tough one to watch. Is that our season over?
We came out strong, full of attacking flair and intent right from the first whistle. But as the game wore on, the energy faded — both physically and spiritually. It’s starting to feel like a pattern this season: we just can’t seem to close out the final 20 minutes. Frustrating to see, especially when we start with such promise. Let's get the win next week.

Instant Reaction - Round 20 vs Cronulla

Fri, 18 Jul 2025 20:49:52 +1000

We blame Coldplay for that performance.

It's a Long Season X Origin Victory? #016

Tue, 08 Jul 2025 16:05:23 +1000

Tough one on the weekend — no way around it. It’s a long season and wins are critical, so the loss to the Tigers stings, but it’s a minor setback, not a derailment. We regroup, reset, and go again. Big question coming out of that: where does Marky Mark fit best — centre or wing? And with Origin looming, who’s your pick to take the series? Let’s break it all down.

Instant Reaction - Round 18 v The Tigers

Sun, 06 Jul 2025 16:43:44 +1000

A very inexperienced Roosters side showed real heart, fighting hard all the way to the 80th minute. Although we spent much of the game on the back foot, the team displayed a great mix of grit and class—and nearly snatched it at the end.

Sun, 01 Jun 2025 21:00:23 +1000

Up, Up, The Roosters! - #012

Mon, 26 May 2025 21:30:32 +1000

Fri, 16 May 2025 22:44:59 +1000

What. A. Game.
Two teams, both desperate for the two points, went head-to-head in an 80-minute battle filled with magic, mistakes, passion, and thunder. In this instant reaction, we break it all down with a pretty neutral lens.
There’s a lot to celebrate—especially considering where we were just six weeks ago—but also plenty to be frustrated about. Tune in for all the highs, lows, and everything in between.

It was a tough night for Roosters fans. We were there for the first half and ripping in, scores were even. But coming into the 2nd half we couldn't really find another gear and the class of Penrith shone right through. We will bounce back for Anzac Day this week. Huge game!

The Chooks Crow in Brisbane - #007

Mon, 14 Apr 2025 20:44:08 +1000

Another famous win from the boys! Our backs were against the wall and we showed up and stuck it to one of the best in the comp! A professional win where every player played their part. We are both personally stoked to see some young talent coming through and looking promising.

We enjoyed this one and we know you will too.

Cherry, White and Blue - #004

Mon, 24 Mar 2025 22:00:38 +1100

DCE to the Chooks? Might be more real than we think. Just as we pressed record, news broke that DCE was leaving Manly....This got us thinking, he could be on his way to the Chooks?? Where would we slot him in? With the biggest headline of the year!

Interesting Podcast! Lots of other fun on the show.

Enjoy.

Instant Reaction - Round 3 v The NZ Warriors

Fri, 21 Mar 2025 21:07:29 +1100

Tough night, Roosters fans. That was an incredibly tough game—an arm wrestle from start to finish. Thought we might have snuck away with it, but it wasn’t to be. Still, plenty of promising signs for the season ahead. Next week is against the Gold Coast Glamours is a must-win!
