I want to call out the Roosters for tanking against South Sydney last night to change their own path into week one of the finals, we all know regardless of what round it is in the competition Roosters v Souths is the biggest grudge match in rugby league history. Watching Souths tear the Roosters apart at easy last night, and to watch coach Robinson is the press conference after the game, so relaxed as if getting beaten 60-8 wasn't a big deal, confirmed my thoughts.
The Roosters were trying to change their path to win 3 Premierships in a row, they know their nemesis is the Melbourne Storm and the thought of playing them away on the Sunshine Coast next week, would result in the possibility of playing a sudden death game in week 2 of the finals. By losing last night, and hoping Parramatta beat the Tigers tonight, they would face Panthers away who they feel they have a better chance of beating, and it diverts Parramatta into the path of Melbourne who Parramatta have never beat away from home.
Ball is now in Parramatta's hands to decide which route they want to take into week 1 of the finals, anyone agree with my theory??
