  • Club Weekend Results - 16-18/08/2024

    Interesting feedback on the Jersey Flegg season - The Roosters have used 46 players so far in 2024 - Must be some sort of record- A lot of injuries across the lower grades in the Men's comps

    7 Wins and 2 Losses including 3 from 3 against the Bulldogs - NSW Cup / Harvey Norman Women's Premiership and Jersey Flegg.

    The Roosters NSW Cup team have won their third successive match in dramatic circumstances at Wentworth Park.

    Trailing the Bulldogs 22-16 with just three minutes remaining, left winger Tyreece Tait scored in the corner (his 14th try in 10 Cup games this season) and half back Hugo Savala landed the sideline conversion, despite slipping over in the attempt (reminiscent of a Cameron Smith goal in 2016 against the Roosters at the SFS).

    With six seconds left on the clock Savala, from 35m out, kicked the winning field goal to give the Roosters their seventh win of the season, 23-22.

    Former Wallaby and Olympian Mark Nawaqanitawase made an impressive Roosters debut, highlighted by a 65th minute try with a 20m dash to the line where he beat four defenders.

    In the NSW Women’s Premiership, the Roosters have moved up to 8th on the ladder with a 24-20 win over the Bulldogs at Belmore.

    NRLW forward Eliza Lopamaua scored her first career hat trick in this competition, which gave the Roosters their second successive win.

    The Roosters Jersey Flegg team notched up successive wins by defeating the second placed Bulldogs 40-20 at Wentworth Park.

    A number of very narrow losses (six by six or less) has meant the team won’t play finals this year, after securing the minor premiership in both 2022 and 2023, but the season, in which the Roosters have used 46 players, has been very productive from a development standpoint.

    In the Ron Massey Cup, the Glebe Dirty Reds have tuned up for the finals with a final round 66-14 demolition of the Penrith Brothers. Glebe ran in 13 tries with both winger David Nofoaluma and lock Phoenix Steinwede scoring hat tricks.

    The finals commence next weekend with Glebe traveling to St Marys to take on the fifth placed Ryde-Eastwood Hawks in an elimination final.

    Thanks for the wrap up.

    Is the departure of Savala to the Gold Coast confirmed?

      It's been reported that Hugo was to sign with the Titans but haven't seen anything official.

      Someone on here mentioned that he wanted to be closer to family - Been at the Roosters since 2018 - Scots College Graduate - Actually a Roosters Junior - Paddington Colts

      Not sure where he would fit in at the Titans as far as NRL opportunities go.

      The Titans signed Wallabies Fly Half Carter Gordon plus have earmarked Tom Weaver as their future half. They also have Tanah Boyd on the books, plus Keiran Foran is playing on in 2025. And then there's Jayden Campbell whose been playing 5/8 and possibly AJ Brimson as well.

      A couple of other halves in their system the Titans have wraps on too in Zane Harrison and Ryder Williams

        So he's better off staying. I wouldn't say Sandon Smith is certainty to be the long term replacement for Keary.
