Show Preview
Round 7 of the NRL Premiership continues this ANZAC Day when the St George Illawarra Dragons take on the Sydney Roosters at the Sydney Cricket Ground. Join The Roar for live scores and commentary from 4.00pm AEST.
This traditional ANZAC Day clash is one of the highlights on the NRL calendar, and we get 2 last start winners in 2022.
Both last start winners, but neither were very convincing.
The Dragons clawed their way to a 21-16 win over the Knights last weekend at Wollongong.
At times it wasn’t pretty, and the Knights were on the wrong end of a horrendous penalty and set restart count, but the Dragons got the job done and banked an essential 2 points. Ben Hunt was instrumental in everything the Dragons did. He will need to put in a repeat performance here.
Anthony Griffin has posted an unchanged line up.
Similarly, after getting away to a poor start, the Roosters slowly overcame the Warriors 22-14 last Sunday afternoon.
It was a fair reflection of the Roosters so far this season, some good, so below expectations. Maybe Luke Keary and Sam Walker are taking time to gel, with the attack looking clunky at times. Yet they sit safely within the top 8 on 8 points.
In team changes, Paul Momirovski replaces Kevin Naiqama in the centres and Siosiua Taukeiaho takes Daniel Suluka-Fifita’s spot on the bench.
Prediction
Both teams will be up for this game so it should be good quality.
The Roosters just seem to have more star power across the park, and I think it might come to the fore this afternoon. The likes of Radley, Keary and Tedesco are due big games and that should prove enough for a Roosters win.
