THE TEAM NEWS
CANTERBURY BULLDOGS
- Canterbury Bulldogs blew a heap of good field position as their inability to turn territory into points cost them with them falling short in their clash with South Sydney Rabbitohs.
- The Doggies will need to be more clinical here as they take on Sydney Roosters but they have resisted the option to make changes to their spine while Josh Addo-Carr is out through concussion.
Starting 13: 1. Blake Taaffe 2. Blake Wilson 3. Jacob Kiraz 4. Stephen Crichton 5. Connor Tracey 6. Matt Burton 7. Drew Hutchison 8. Max King 9. Reed Mahoney 10. Samuel Hughes 11. Viliame Kikau 12. Josh Curran 13. Jaeman Salmon Bench: 14. Kurt Mann 15. Harrison Edwards 16. Liam Knight 17. Kitione Kautoga Reserves: 19. Bronson Xerri 20. Toby Sexton 21. Bailey Hayward 22. Chris Patolo 23. Poasa Faamausili
SYDNEY ROOSTERS
- Sydney Roosters were outplayed by reigning premiers Penrith Panthers last week as they failed in their quest to secure back-to-back wins for the first time this season.
- They will aim to bounce back here and will be boosted by the return of Lindsay Collins who was a huge miss through the middle of the park last week.
Starting 13: 1. James Tedesco 2. Daniel Tupou 3. Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii 4. Joseph Manu 5. Dominic Young 6. Luke Keary 7. Sam Walker 8. Jared Waerea-Hargreaves 9. Brandon Smith 10. Lindsay Collins 11. Nat Butcher 12. Angus Crichton 13. Victor Radley Bench: 14. Connor Watson 15. Naufahu Whyte 16. Sitili Tupouniua 17. Terrell May Reserves: 18. Michael Jennings 19. Egan Butcher 20. Fetalaiga Pauga 21. Zach Dockar-Clay 22. Siua Wong
THE PREDICTION
Canterbury Bulldogs had no issue getting up the field last week but failed to capitalise on numerous chances and succumbed to a disappointing loss to South Sydney Rabbitohs as a result. That leaves them with just one win from four games so far this season and while Sydney Roosters have also lacked consistency, the Tricolours should prove to be too good in this encounter.
TIP: SYDNEY ROOSTERS -8
