ROOSTERS SQUAD v SHARKS
Round 7 - Friday 14th April @ 6:00pm
PointsBet Stadium, Sydney
The less said about last week the better.
The Sharks have been leaking points, but their attack is going OK. They have lost both their home games so far this year. Dale Finucane (suspended) and Toby Rudolf (foot) are both out, which is a big loss for them. We should be able to dominate the ruck and our backs will capitalise on that. I'm predicting a double for Toups.
The Roosters have won their past seven games against the Sharks, and we haven't lost at Shark Park since 2016. Let's hope we can continue the streak.
Teddy back and Manu at centre are great for us, as is Lodge's return on the bench. That sends Hutch back to the bench, in place of Turpin. Not happy .
Early Friday night games don't usually overly enthuse me, but I'll be pumped for this one. I'm expecting a bounce-back this week - I reckon we've got this one.
GO EASTS !!
