Deep Review: Roosters Defeat the Rebuilding Titans

The Roosters secured a 28-12 victory over the rebuilding Titans in a game that, while not a blowout, showcased their growing discipline and composure. The hosts praised the Roosters’ clinical execution, particularly their improved completion rate since the Manly game, which has laid a foundation for a top-eight finish. However, the real story emerged from the Titans’ performance: despite the loss, their spine—featuring young talents like Zane Harrison, Oli Pascoe, and Jadon Campbell—looked promising and may signal the start of a genuine rebuild. The panel debated whether the Titans should have burned their current squad to rebuild from scratch, with strong endorsements for Pascoe and Harrison as future leaders. Meanwhile, the Roosters’ resurgence was attributed to the Reece Robinson-Tedesco partnership and Victor Adley’s intangible leadership, with standout performances from Angus Crichton and Cody Ramsey’s remarkable comeback from obscurity. A controversial try by Robert Toyer sparked debate over recent rule changes, with critics calling the interpretation of 'touch' on the forearm overly lenient. The episode closes with a nod to the Neds app, where listeners can follow the hosts’ betting picks each week.
