You ain't seen nothing yet.
That was the message from the buoyant Roosters after they flew back into Sydney on Tuesday following their remarkable win over Brisbane – a fourth straight victory that has last year's wooden spooners in the nosebleed section of the table after 20 rounds.
The Roosters led the Broncos by 22 points before being run down by a stunning points blitz that saw the hosts pull ahead by two with eight minutes remaining.
Centre Shaun Kenny-Dowall's fourth try – equalling a club record for most tries by an individual – proved the clincher in an absorbing contest.
"It shows that no matter what the situation, we can still win games," skipper Braith Anasta told Sportal.
"When they were scoring all their points there were a lot of blank looks and emptiness but when they scored that last try to go ahead everyone said 'let's go, this is it, let's try and win this game'."
"Unfortunately it took three or four tries to do that but at least we did do it."
"I wanted to congratulate the boys because it was a big win and a good effort under the circumstances but I also wanted to say let's not getting carried away with it."
"We probably shouldn't have been in that position and that will keep us on our toes."
Anasta admitted the Roosters have over-achieved in going from last to third in the space of 12 months.
But having resurrected their fortunes so spectacularly, they are hungry for more.
"We've exceeded everyone's expectations including probably our own," Anasta conceded.
"But in saying that, where we sit right now we're very confident."
"We believe we deserve to be there and definitely have a chance of winning the premiership."
Todd Carney, who scored a try and created four others to destroy the Broncos, ignored the Roosters' 2009 campaign when he decided to reignite his career at Bondi this year.
Coach Brian Smith, brought in from Newcastle, promised change and has delivered in stunning fashion.
"I knew from watching them play and playing against them, they were always competitive and tough," Carney said.
"That was one of the reasons I came here. Smithy sat us down and (told us) his expectations and that he wanted us to rise to his and we're doing it."
"We've got a long way to go and we don't want to get too complacent but hopefully we continue to get better."
The Roosters run into another red-hot side on Saturday when they confront the Jarryd Hayne-inspired Eels at Parramatta Stadium.
The blue and golds have won three straight to rekindle memories of their stunning run to last year's grand final.
"It's going to be a tough game – they're in form, we're in form," Anasta said.
"Both teams will be up for it."
