  1. I notice only ex Roosters playing on the same day as the mighty Back to Back Premiers and defending World Club Champions the Sydney Roosters do battle in a real game for a real trophy against a real Champion Opponent.

  2. I notice a game of nothingness against a team filled with white.boys, Curran, Elliot, Watson Graham, Wighton, Thompson, Roberts,

  3. No wonder they do not want the National Anthem played because half their whit.bot team would sing our national song. Not a good look foe Cody and Liartrell. The instigators of division.

  5. I will be boycotting this game on the grounds that the players won’t be singing the National Anthem of this great country.

    If everyone did as I am doing, this meaningless ra.ci.s.t match would not be held.

    2 can play the boycott game.

  8. If there boycotting the anthem for the reason they are, shouldn’t they boycott the game of rugby league as it eriginated in England… Pretty sure it wasn’t played by there ancestors prior to white man’s arrival…..

  9. Seriously enough of the white boy black fella talk, this is getting bloody ridiculous. Everyday it’s the same $hit talk from the same f u ck ing losers on this once decent site. Talk footy or take a walk you mongos

  10. Zero tackle admins please monitor your site.
    You don’t do anything against the constant rabbits and rooster rubbish talk fine…. people can have stupid annoying opinions…
    but this is now just racist talk coming from some people.
    Is Maori heritage vs Indigenous heritage
    No need to mention people’s skin colour or anything else.
    As for the nation anthem talk that’s more political and race does have a big part in that but as far as this game is concerned there should be a no Torrance on racist chat

  11. “If there boycotting the anthem for the reason they are, shouldn’t they boycott the game of rugby league as it eriginated in England… Pretty sure it wasn’t played by there ancestors prior to white man’s arrival…..”

    It wasn’t being played in AUSTRALIA IN 1788 EITHER ……..

  14. My point is, the hypocrisy that is shown…. Boycott playing the game of rugby league if they feel that strong in what they believe….

  15. Not one indigenous player represented from the roosters. Say no more.
    Welcome home Latrell where you can share your indigenous pride with you other Souths brothers.

  16. This game will be as boring as a reserve grade trial match. Don’t waste 90 minutes of your life away. The only interesting part will be watching them all squirm while the anthem is played.

  18. So it’s no more NRL All Stars it’s just Indigenous and Maori now ?
    Where’s the SJW PC Gender Alphabet Group ? This game is racist blah blah blah…..

  21. Hey 21, you dog.
    The Chooks are on the other side of the world, playing for a trophy to put in their trophy cabinet.
    Do Souffs have one? Whereabouts is that?

  22. swa9amuff1n… well said. Over the years, and still now to a degree, ZeroTackle have censored and even banned contributors for far less than what they are allowing to get through by some on here. This was a great site where you could get some pretty good info on the game and have a chat with others who enjoy it, often with a bit of fun. Now it is clogged up by the Rabbitohs/Roosters garbage and now racist commentary.

    On the game, there is nothing racist about having 2 teams representing their heritage. If this game is racist as some suggest, so is every international game. On the anthem thing, I don’t think it needs to be played in this game Not because of the boycott threats, but because it isn’t an Aus v NZ game, the anthem should be for internationals. I’ll be watching the game, not because I am looking forward to it as a game, but because I miss my footy.

  23. Eels47 – don’t torture yourself. Watch an entertaining and quality game of rugby league called the world club challenge. Its on the same weekend as that other useless exhibition thing so you can get your footy fix. And to top it off you’ll also get to hear 2 great national anthems both sung with pride and without any political rubbish to overshadow it.

  25. Can’t agree more Eels47, redv13 and swa9amuff1n. We can talk about footy and have different views without the nonsense that goes on here. Moderator wouldn’t get a job with me.

  26. Laurie Daley said Andrew Fifita is in 50/50. guessing Benji , CNK, Fisher-Harris, Tapine & Tohu Harris all had offseason surgery? Full strength including the roosters boys the Maori’s would beat Queensland state of origin side with ease.

    Dane Gagai scored the 1st try in last years match… then felt quilty & leaked the next 2 or 3 through poor defensive reads. I read he didn’t want to play this year because he couldn’t decide what team to play for .. we wouldn’t have picked you anyway buddy!

  29. Hey Zilzie I think you got a Point, maybe we could call you Onezie now.

    Perhaps the Soufths fan Brennan Lane got Ferguson wrong for sure but he sure got the other four correct with a strike rate of 80% for a Soufths fan on a Rooster subject. I think he deserves some applause. Don’t you agree Onezie?

    Unless of coarse Brendan was talking about he won his first Premiership at the Roosters. Or he played his first rep game for Australia from the Roosters. Or he has played more Nrl games at the Roosters than any other team. But his debut was at Cronulla.

    Interesting point why he chased the big dollars sacrificing another Rooster premiership. Is because he is a cousin of big mouth Mundine who tells all his clients to chase money.

  30. Well Adamhoward I could be wrong, it happens frequently, but so far as I’m aware Adam Elliott has only ever played first grade for my team Canterbury Bankstown. That would give Brennan 60% which I guess is still a pass.

  31. Look at the big mouth Parra fan Kev being a typical Parra bragging nit/wit. They have rivalled Soufths as a massive transit.lounge club. Purchasing three or four premiership winning ex-Roosters and now the clown thinks he can stoke up his BBQ for this years grand final assuming Parra will be certainties.

    For those that don’t know Kev the sook, he has not watched a grand final since Parra got rolled in the 2009 big dance. He packs his toys up and goes running home once Parra are eliminated.

  32. Looks like your right Twozie, thought it was Brendan Elliot, glad I did not confuse the coach, otherwise I might of called him after the actor Elliot Gould, or is that Phil. Onya Twozie.

    “Looks like your right Twozie, thought it was Brendan Elliot……”
    Keep at it dopey, your bound to get 1 right if you keep at it Bwahhhaahahahahhah

    “I have it on good authority that Latrell 100% will not don the green and red christmas elf Souths Pole jersey in 2020 or any year for that matter. 100% guarentee this is absolutely a fact.”
    Where does it end with this fool?

    “Hope St Hellens smashes the Sydney City Chickens.”

    Kev, it’s the sydney roosters.
    Sydney city chickens was 3 names back.

  36. Thoughts on John Farnhams the Voice for our new national anthem it’s a banger of a song and everyone loves it better than some outdated boring piece of music from 1878 that we adapted a century later for our anthem

  37. This Anthem would be perfect for all Australians and we can all keep our Flag colours also of Red White and Blue.

    Easts know how to play the game, they play it hard and fair
    Easts know how to win the game, they win more than their share
    They’re great to see in action, these boys who show the way
    Put the Roosters on the field, they’ll show you how to play

    Here come the Roosters, the best we’ve ever seen
    The red, white and bluesters, the Eastern Suburbs team
    “Easts to win” shout the cry that everybody knows
    If you play this football game beware the Roosters crow

    They’re great to see in action, these boys who show the way
    Put the Roosters on the field, they’ll show you how to play
    Here come the Roosters, the best we’ve ever seen
    The red, white and bluesters, the Eastern Suburbs team.

  38. This would could be considered also.

    Roosters your the greatest
    your the very best
    when they see those colors

    going all the way

    Hey hey hey hey hey
    Rooster rooster man
    and so on……………………………hope that helps

  39. I reckon land down under by men at work or even Waltzing Matilda would be good anthem tunes. Even if the lyrics need to be rewritten.

  40. Sorry Brennan.lane too long winded and boring, and not a Skid.Mark just $hit.

    I reckon Ropeables on the right track land down under would be another cracker.

    Please not waltzing Matilda though RR pretty sure that was in the 70s plebiscite for our national anthem, another outdated song. It’d be awesome of Australia to buck the trend of “Traditional” since 84 national anthem and go with an Australian power ballad.

  41. SkidMarks..
    It is true that the Nuggets Import Club does represent the whole country . As that clubs players come from all across the country. Though nobody would want to sing that crap .
    It’s a bit ridiculous that you’re always having a go at South’s for buying players, as one of your sign ins or another. When your Nuggets buy all of their premierships & have to import almost all of their players..
    I don’t care if the indigenous population don’t wish to sing the current national anthem. If it helps to bring all of the population of the country closer, change the anthem for a more appropriate & inclusive one. In any case , the current anthem was only adopted in 1984 . It’s not like we’ve had it for a very long time.
    Just on the choice of Andrew Fifita. When it’s time to play for his country , he’s Tongan. Not a proud indigenous Australian. When it’s time for the Koori knockout & All Stars Game , he’s a proud Koori man. Surely he shouldn’t be chosen for the All Stars game or Koori knockout competition, if he’s all about Tonga?
