“Irrelevant”: The Roosters coach’s whining has “lost the plot”
Trent Robinson, the coach of the Sydney Roosters, has transformed from a feared genius to a whinger as his talented squad falls short of expectations.
The majority of the unfavorable preconceptions that have around the Roosters are accurate.
But none of their quirks—the Roosters have turned like whingers—are as damaging as their most recent one, which is their love of organic wraps, tiny caps, and avoiding salary caps.
Everybody recalls the era when “Roosters Footy” was all about exemplifying the best aspects of the game.
Things like snatching Souths’ finest players, chasing perfection nonstop, and competing for premierships, to mention a few.

However, these days, “Roosters Footy” only exists to self-puncture their own hype and assign the blame to three geeks traveling in a caravan.
Yes, the Chooks head coach is largely responsible for this. Although Trent Robinson is a modern-day NRL colossus, his habit of criticizing officials is making the Bondi boys look like bitter losers who are unable to rise above the game’s inevitabilities, such as Ashley Klein and the bouncing ball.
Fair enough, Robinson’s confusion over the disrupter rule after Thursday night’s loss to the Storm was justified, but only because nobody, including the refs, understands the rule. If he keeps focusing on minute details rather than his team’s inability to record a line break, he runs the risk of being remembered less as a triple premiership coach and more like Des Hasler and Ricky Stuart, men who spend most Mondays passing kidney stones on the phone to the ref’s boss.
