Show Preview
The Wests Tigers and Sydney Roosters meet in Round 2 NRL action at Campbelltown Stadium. Join The Roar for live scores and commentary from 4:05pm (AEDT).
After an impressive Round 1 hit-out against the struggling Sea Eagles, the Sydney Roosters travel to a wet Campbelltown Stadium to tackle another of the Round 1 losers.
It looks to be all systems go for the Tricolours and another semi-final appearance in 2021 seems almost assured, considering their squad depth and the statement they made on the opening weekend.
Wests were ordinary against the Raiders, with poor ball control and a lack of genuine chances created in the red zone condemning them to a 30-12 loss in the nation’s capital.
Michael Maguire will be looking for an immediate turnaround, otherwise Tigers fans may be at risk of thinking that once again, the troops at his disposal are not up to scratch when it comes to the heavyweights of the competition.
Prediction
It is hard to see anything other than a Roosters win. The wet weather is potentially a leveller.
However, the Chooks can grind with the best of them and however open or clogged the game becomes, they should have far too many weapons for a brave and committed Wests outfit.
