Chooks stun THEMSELVES after containing entire Dragons set inside 10m line, scoring ridiculous try
The Roosters won 60-18 with this incredible sequence capping off the performance.
They occupied the bottom two spots on the ladder in 2018, but Manly and Parramatta both mounted incredible charges to the finals this season.
While they both saw their seasons come to a close with semi-final losses on the weekend, both Des Hasler and Brad Arthur will be immensely proud of the turnarounds they orchestrated for their clubs in 2019.
The question on Sea Eagles and Eels fans lips, however, will be whether they can back those stunning seasons up next year.
We had Roar NRL expert Tim Gore on the Game of Codes podcast to look at what both clubs need to do to take the next step in 2020, as well as who’s more likely to get back to the semis in 2020.
Listen to the debate:

Parramatta also looked to be in strife last season when they completely fell off the wagon following a top four appearance the previous season.
If a week is a long time in football, a year is even longer.
