Said it years ago. Biggest myth of a coach with the biggest cheats. Disgraceful club. Imagine being one of their “fans”

While I love seeing Rooster and Robbo Tomato Head lose, he was pretty much right. I’m not sure about the NAS thing with him giving a push, but he said it was outlined in the offseason, so I guess they’ve tweaked the rule. I can’t see how the Manu interference was ignored though. We’ve already seen numerous penalties for way less “disrupting”. Smith put his hands in Manu’s back. That’s been a penalty for forever.

I get what you are saying mate but the storm were easily the better team. 6 line breaks to 1. The score flattered the rorters.
Teddy is up there these days with Gutho as the biggest whinger in the comp. You can see the refs have had enough by the way they talk to him.
Gus nailed it last year when he said they are an angry side. Can’t cop it when they are not leading the comp

Old bee face needs to get familiar with the new nrl, not giving the rooters everything on a silver platter (whilst still fucking up everywhere else)

Appreciate he feels the need to defend his players, but Robinson seems to say some pretty tone deaf things.

Another fraud getting exposed...
He has close to if not the best team on
paper. The problem is that he can’t coach very well and is only a good man manager. The chickens tactics this year have been terrible. Too much flair and not enough grunt. It suits the pricks.

In The Roar today:
The biggest sook in the NRL coaching fraternity
When it comes to coaches ranting and complaining after a game your mind turns to the reputations of Ricky Stuart, or maybe Des Hasler. Jason Demetriou and Todd Payten can sook it up. Even Benji Marshall had a crack at the referees this week.
But there’s one coach who now stands above all as the game’s biggest whingers, and it’s Roosters honcho Trent Robinson. It’s a shame, too, because I really like Robinson. He’s sadly degenerated into a post-game referee bashing machine.
His effort after a close loss to Melbourne was embarrassing. Robinson teed off yet again on the bunker and referee Ashley Klein, but he must have forgotten a couple of calls that went his way, particularly a missed dropped ball in the lead up to the try which tied the game.
It’s one thing to whack refs and journos to cover for your team (like Ricky Stuart does) or go super, extra hard to plant seeds for future treatment (like Des Hasler does) but Robinson is disproportionately into the refs and bunker every week now. He’s better than this.

Let me say that Robbo has given us Chooks fans 3 Premierships and a double that hasn't been seen in 30 years. Reckon he's feeling some pressure atm.......maybe no more coffee and baclava with Uncle Nick, bad sign.
BUT
Robbo has become a real whinger lately, seriously Dally M front runner. Personally I'd like to see more effort in coaching like stupid handing errors, find a potential bomber in the side (like Burton style).........just do anything that focuses on game plans, attack and defense and stop the pity party.
FMS we lost, good comeback but we lost, get over it and focus on next week. With this mentality we're gonna get smashed by St Merge on Anzac Day.

Robinson's first year as Chooks coach was 2013, Politis bought and paid for this team whilst staying within a Salary Cap of $5.15m (as if) ;
Mitch Aubusson
Boyd Cordner
Jake Friend
Aiden Guerra
Michael Jennings
Shaun Kenny-Dowall
Isaac Liu
James Maloney
Anthony Minichiello
Frank-Paul Nu'uausala
Luke O'Donnell
Mitchell Pearce
Roger Tuivasa-Sheck
Daniel Tupou
Jared Waerea-Hargreaves
Sonny Bill Williams
FMD what coach wouldn't win with that team and the players at his disposal every season since have been just as, if not more than, credentialed. Robinson's record will always be tainted by his multiple seasons of failure despite having the level of playing group that other clubs can only dream about.

To an extent that's true but ODonnell was unwanted but bought for low dollars to add experience.
Cords, Friend and Mini all made their names at the Chooks.
But Robbo to me either don't have the shed, has been there too long or maybe the game has passed him.
But not many unemployed coaches with 3 premierships looking for work.
Always thought Flanno was a good replacement..he's lifted that Merge side.
Whatever...just stop whinging Robbo.
Yeah, but of course.
They all play for less (because everyone luuuves the Rorters - true story), sign for peanuts (why do they always come in brown paper bags?), and yet somehow clear $Millions of
It's magic! A Rorters tradition, conveniently camouflaged by a concerted propaganda narrative courtesy of a very "friendly" & compliant media relationship, and NRL Salary Cap Audit team that are laughably deaf, dumb, & blind to anything wrapped in tri-colour wrapping.
See that bridge over there. I can sell it to ya real cheap.

So you reckon blokes haven't played for unders to stay at the Bronx, Drizzle or under Benny or Bellyache ?
Bronx for years had almost an Origin side.
Lomax was dealing with Parra to switch for way under. Luai is going to Tigs for huge $$$....that's how it goes.
Btw Manu turned down $1m a season to stay and not go to the warriors.
But hey there's fact and fiction.
