NRL 2018 | Sydney Roosters v South Sydney Rabbitohs | Full Match Replay | Round 6

okay stay [Applause] back and Latrell Mitchell gets us underway R is with first touch the ball back to Walker and away it goes on the outside to Burgess who's put down of the tackle now right on the 20 M line first touch with number 10 George his brother of course is the number eight Thomas Burgess John Sutton to play the ball just inside the 30 cook away to Clark on the outside it went there flicked out the back now by Angus Kon so they're throwing the ball about in the first set here a beer short of halfway Clark again oh he went to throw a dummy he had the front row of Burgess on his shoulder but took the tackle cook again dummy half to Thomas Burgess now Georgia number 10 it's a good set of six really they're 35 out they'll come back and go to the air now high kick from Reynolds now ree Robinson took it well he's over on that left wing and they had plenty of practice in the warmup doing exactly that to either the Roberts and oresco this time it's a fullback that's a 10 met line you can see Ferguson from the right wing doing a bit of work after the ball was taken by his left Winger friend as Peter mentioned Jason Park celebrating game 150 a late inclusion now they've lost the ball here the roosters in there first set six that's not a good start it's put down by Jared Maria [Applause] hagri early touch there going AR straight for big man and whilst he's a wonderful play to bring into your r on side I've always believed that the roosters are a much better side with takayu in their 17 Young vek comes in with some heat on him tonight is gaves acknowledges for his teammates I'll put you under pressure that young BL Tak AO was out on the eve of the game with a twisted left knee and that's why R har grief comes in so South Sydney with a great attacking platform here from 30 out they're going to kick early The Tackle count engas is steaming through arford he got there but Ferguson got there in front of him he may have just been in front of the kicker too but they don't need to go back because there's no Tri score yeah he got a little check-in running too The Roosters realized in the last minute what was on there but nice tactics from the rabbito a little bit of creativity something something a bit [Applause] different it was a great Ploy obviously better if Greg engas had have been able to lead the Chase and score but that immediately does the rest of this game is tell the rooster's defense that don't get up too quick on us but we'll do it again we kick before the first tackle we'll kick it anytime if need be and cheing penalty puts the Roosters on the attack 10 right Dylan Nappa with it now two or three short of halfway and about 15 in from touch on this Western broadcast side of alian Stadium again Ferguson coming from the right wing up over the halfway friend again hard g into the defense solid stuff cook there Clark underneath outside the 30 oh c a forward pass surely wow here we've said it time and time again this pass back on the inside is always difficult if you don't turn your whole body but the last halfback you'd expect to do it wrong is cooperon he's been doing it for so long but even the good one see just a little lack of concentration and he shakes his head you've really got to get your body turned otherwise it looks forward all the time two sets of six two mistakes effectively waria harre and now cooperon two of the more experienced players in the side coughing up possession effectively now Mor was putting the ball into the scrum and that's Richie Kenna now with the ball outside the 30 bright with a pouette taken by FR up to the 40 cordner there as well cook Clark first receiver oh into the defense and solid stuff as well from ISAC Le hard in the tackle and a reg going to be friend underneath that it is just C the game for ball the Burgess that's [Applause] Thomas Cook clar re short ball Tron taken by the defense Kiri over the top fifth tackle they've been solid so far the rabitos all Clark shocking pass went out for him got the ball back away to walk he's going to have to throw the ball oh he tackle changer oh he got them he's got them last tackle penalty last tackle penalty for inside the 10 Marks here shot well that is a big call shot and they're going to take the kick at goal so we'll come back after this break and he pinged about three of The Roosters on the last tackle and they take a shot at goal here it is Peter yeah but have a look at this R where the receiver gets it he's 12 M it's a very solid 10 for sure 11 or 12 it is here's Reynolds kicks and straight between the uprights as a result 2-0 the Ravid lead the roosters drawing First Blood Brad fitler down on the tou line on conditions hello Bradley uh good evening Ray it's a beautiful night down here at Alan Stadium it's about 26° the Ry grass is coming through Ray it's a little bit slippery I expect it to get slippery as the night goes on there's a bit of a breeze and that's behind the roosters stay back down by 2 N that Ry grass will get wet Mitchell again with that stab kick that go straight back and taken by Walker given back to Burgess immediately and the big fellow George brings it back Awards the 20 cook Looks To Go Blind Side Ling out there with Sutton but Ferguson's equal to the task with d Nappa and friend again cook D play on straight through cook he's up over halfway he's got support the ball back the clarkk he Sprints away hasn't got the pace back to cook they gather him in Robinson Tri saer 11 M out great stuff by the rabbit o Reynolds on the outside the dummy thrown but not four and four sudden he's got them again inside the 10 not quick it come through the hands but they get the penalty great work from Damen C he played every minute so far this season for South Sydney probably go the duration again tonight and Jason Clark did a good job to be there he knew he didn't have the pace and could the pressure on Burg just takes it forward that's George he'll play the ball back now still going George in 10 Thomas in cook out the back walker spins around back the other way he'll give the ball back away to s s with a little step and a dance he's put down 8 lers out Maria hre's around the legs they go Blindside cook sharp away to englas engas is just about there he's lost the ball Greg has put it down close to the goal line away short well he's very quick quick out of dummy half Damen cook you take your eyes off him he's gone just brushes through some flimsy defense here he gives it to Jason Clark Jason Clark should have given it straight back cook might have been able to run the distance but just a few slow meters kept him out and here's English reaching out for the line but the ball knocked from his grasp you know I watched cook for I think St George in lower grades then for Canterbury and he's done a very very good job he's never been that quick when he was playing with canb but obviously he's worked on that aspect of his game and now he's one of the quickest Dy halfs in the game well he's taken a while to Sanda spot in the top gr but he's certainly done that to sou Sydney and mentioned last week that's shown by the fact that Rob Farah can't get a run in the 17 playing in the feed of Club Manu is playing the ball back friends on acting half they really need to settle down here the roosters do get through a set of six as George makes a tackle ver dmy throw like cner it's up and plays it back friend Maria hardre that's the 40 that's a halfway he's over it cook [Music] there FR with a kick now it's gone deep and it'll be handled well by Alex Johnson he's first touch the I can Rec and he's put down immediately a good tackle by Boyd cordner [Applause] Kenna and a dummy half Winger from the right hand side o good defense there Ki K again gag I the half that's a lovely run there it's been a really good start from both the Burgess Brothers tonight Tom and Geor and hard to handle gives the kicker time on the back of a strong run defense couldn't get up quickly on Reynolds re Robinson confronted by red and Glen line he does well to make it 23 out from his own Clark and cook made the tackle Peters Ferguson now goes for surge up center field 2-n penalty goal to Adam Reynolds sees the rabbito over the roosters Ryan Madison jump out 12 was put down just short of halfway friend and Leo got the ball away on the outside they're inside the half the South Sydney half now it was Nappa the ball back away to KI got a ball on the inside to coiner but there's good defense there from Clark and Burgess and there's a stab kick down field and little that inter prising just into touch to pack a scrum about 15 M out make it 12 M out from the RAV those line it'll be there loose their feet yeah powerful start by the rabbito forwards whether or not they got word late that the roosters had lost one of their front rowers and they figure well if we can get into this starting lot there might be much coming from the bench but the big Burgess boys certainly got into their work early and are bending The Roosters back with every run now this scrums about to pack down only tlra mobile customers can stream the NRL data free on Australia's best mobile network download the NRL official app now like the first 11 minutes of this game exemplified by the fact of South Sydney last tackle down the other end they wouldn't have been kicking for touch Cur realized at his side got plenty of possession they've done some tackling they needed a bre Robert Jennings plays the ball back oh Dylan n on John sat referee gesticulated it was across the chest too high englas with it now couple seasons ago Dylan NAA made it a onean war against this South C pack and he's missed that tackle and fgis has gone through he has still going he's got Tesco stood up he's dragged down from behind by friend it's Thomas he plays the ball back they go The Blind Side they get it out wide o Eng he trapped it with his foot he's kicked into the in goal area taken on the full it will be an opal restart now hang on offside him they weren't back on the goal line he's saying the kick had come from Robert Jennings by the way just a replay we had to look just before that break in play or the break by the rabbito and it was a I'm pretty sure it was a shoulder that we saw earlier from Dylan Napper I don't think there was an arm involved in the tackle but it matters not because look at bures go and to this go friend made a tri saing tackle and you can see here that they're all offside Mar the wing of Ferguson and the referee played an advantage none went to South Sydney so app they take the tap Reynolds Walker Burgess cook oh walking to the other Burgess that's Thomas after George had taken it previously back the other way cook gives it some width the ball ball comes on the outside he calls him on the inside Johnson he's run out of room he suum to the tackle he's into touch oh he put a fingernail on the touch line and the touch jge she put a flag straight in the air Casey [Applause] Badger scr clock on well they've been under plenty of pressure The [Applause] Roosters he's pretty much tackled you think gee I think that's a pretty tough call I think he wasn't told to play the ball when he had it on the ground and yeah well before that and the elbow just touched the touch line and good work by Casey Badger she saw that but it's not her call it's the referee's call one of the two referees there's The Possession you know it's it's not a bad score when you've had 36% of the ball compared to the Other M 64% they spent some time down here they sou Sydney and couple occasions haven't got right through to the end of their set as M Ferguson again comes in off his wing done that brilliantly so far this season Ferguson the tough Mets he's been doing a great job taking some pressure off the forwards inside his own half friend Dylan Nappa Five Short off halfway the Burgess boys accommodating they're going to kick from outside the 40 now goes back to Jennings he takes it on the bounce 12 out from his own line now Ferguson's there big strong Philip Jennings and he's taken in the tackle just inside his own 30 K Walker went to acting half and got the ball away to engas under those bodies Greg gets up and plays it Damen cook gag eyes from The Far Side from the right center to just about left Center cook the G so there's plenty of people looking for work CL at first receiver 13 to2 the Miss tackles and there's o Sutton's almost through he is that's another Miss tackle and there's another two missed tackles in the one run by John Sutton fifth tackle Reen's going to run at last tackle Kon oh they've knocked the ball on change over yeah guy was under pressure Latrell Mitchell was all over him and they come up with the ball 15 out from the Own Line Phil G well the rabitos are just tearing them apart in the middle of the field that's about the third or fourth clean lineb straight through the middle of the roosters forwards Ki went to acting half there after a half Break by Mitchell his R back there now look at the meters game double almost for the rabitos over the roosters ah now here we see the pendulum swinging the other way for inside the tless appealing to the referee but the penalties 10 short of halfway and about 12 in from touch western side of the field yeah I know we've had a number of 10 m penalties tonight but these referees are consistently 11 12 M sometimes more in the play they're keeping a huge 10 tonight which is why the rivos have been so effective hitting the advantage line the way they are after three or four tackles the defense can't cope it's it's a huge 10 that they're keeping and they're also keeping it very strictly they've had this enormous weight of possession but they only lead by 2-0 6436 it was just seconds ago yeah they need to make sure defensively they got here is strong tackle on Madison it would hurt them if they they ConEd points after having all of that possession well this is the best in fact this is the only opportunity they've had coming to 80 minute mark C Leu he's put [Music] down friend she a quick off the line there pal on here it's gone from Tesco they go back for it picked it up back on the inside they come Robinson he's inside the [Applause] 20 at the back Ki har gaves the 10 m line just in front of him friend left car it now that's rebounded it's on the ground that was knocked on but a knock on a few yeah this is all legs gag guy has the ball you knock it forward out of his hands so we have a scrum to South Sydney okay rabid you heard it there in the background from the referee went through it technically off the legs and then knocked out of the hands forward off the roosters Bradley fitler can you just tell me if we've dueo down there there's a little clouds coming up in this surface and yes I was talk I was talking to the Grands coer earlier and it's been quite busy at aliance and it's only going to get busier they got 11 games over the next week or so including the great anac clash between the roosters and the dragons coming up they got soccer over the next couple of days and the Roy is coming through gassy that's why you see that je point the Jew's coming through it's not the je point it's just a Ry grass holding the water don't you chuckle Ray when he was talking about Ry grass earli you said yes that'll get wet as though you were some Authority on it as well you've just jumped on the I'm thinking about doing a gardening show actually you mention here's the ball with sou Sydney I know what Ry BR is I got no idea what R grass is I don't think Freddy knows either but I tell you what he's convincing they saw it through the winter gives you the green gives you a bit of substance underneath your foot thank you B inside there's another line break straight through they go they've got him by the strides and bring him down 32 M out they will play the ball back now the number 17 is on the field TOA they've kicked straight to Reese Robinson so Junior TOA has only been on for seconds and makes a break well South Sydney are pouring through the roosters forward so easily they should learn that when they get down the other end of the field near the Trine when they get down into the Trine they try to go wide what got you down there gets you over the line if they keep finding space through the middle like this it only stands the reason that if get close to the tril line that's the way to keep playing well Junior talo must say how long's this been going on he's been on for seconds and through tackles he goes well he dragged Ryan Madison for about 10 m and Madison did very well to hang on I think they could to get the ball to Greg englas out wide when they get in the attacking Zone I i' contemplate throwing him in behind the forwards when they get in the attacking Zone just every now and then they don't need to go wide they're just pouring through them in the middle that was a play the ball penalty by the way not a penalty as Mar harri goes forward now over that 40 Jake friender tried it Leu ISAC Leu goes to the 30 center field there's a penalty away from him wouldn't get over the top you can't go back over him mate you can't go back over him you got to move away from him Daman cook it a little Dipsy Doodle and with a half pike and they're going to take a shot at goal so they'll level up we think at two all back with more shortly so there you are right in front of the post and 30 m out latrel Mitchell has the ball placed uh they needed to break both sets of uh it's it is a warm night it's been a very warm day in Sydney 3536 in the western suburbs well both teams are confident he's going kick it except that congregate in the middle left foot strikes it uprights straight between them so as a result the score is two all two all the score Brad fitler's downstairs it's a bit of a shame actually the penalties at the moment of 4 to three all the fans turned up banging for blood tonight the oldest rivalry in rugby league and all we've seen so far is a lot of penalties right when Damen cook gave away that penalty as he's walking back he gave bit of a r smile R everywhere out there R bread Ry grass Ry Smiles stay back don't tumble for the spelling of Ry smile w y as Ben Elias one said TR [Applause] Robinson in from the wing looking for a bit of work here Ferguson has been most effective from the right wing made the tackle there Junior [Applause] toer ISAC Leu with it Jake Fen at acting half Rees Qui he bounced away from him but cook was there to tidy up to all strong run by cord that's a good tackle I reckon it's Cen around the legs good tackle there's the kick from 41 M out taken well by Ken the Winger brings the ball back towards the 20 so the arm wrestle continues coming up to the 24 minute Mark of the first half 16 remaining with there abouts back in half [Music] Jennings the other Winger so Mark Nicholas off of South Sydney opened up last week b as they go wide this time cryon trying to find support on the outside last tackle against s he had gag ey two man out screaming for it as the kick comes Ferguson will take it on his chest and then runs towards the touch line and he's into touch oh that's an unforgivable error by a vastly experienced player he had two options go inside beat them on the outside he took the worst possible option well that's just an incredible error makes the big catch when he catches it he's a good 15 m in from touch he didn't even have to go to his right he's right on the numbers there and he goes to his right why they get him from the inside there too big and strong these days you can't get to the ground well Jennings and Nicholls were there once they get you going sideways you're in trouble this is a great opportunity for South City they have had a few mind you cook was there Clark Reynolds away on the outside they're put down D Kon he's only about 12 out he's still wrestling before he's grabed by friend he'll play quickly cook again Reynolds the big 17 junor TOA 6 M out cook to acting half dummies ball out the back then away it came ktie Walker Reynolds gets it out wide comes onto the chest the Winger comes back on the inside but there's plenty of numbers there for Kenna Richie Kenna brought down that's gagy with a knee strap the dummy half Reynolds cook second receiver out the back walker inside ball back away Sutton BR beat one tackle Jared Warrior hard GES cook again comes on the outside for jagle oh Walker's going to go close oh no he steps straight into friend a meter out plays it back again last tackle Reynolds little chip into the in goal area it's there by the wing the ball here the South sitting the outside on dead but WEA would have got taking the chance dangerous plays in that last set of six with the inside ball to John Sutton as well oh I think they've just got to kick the front go around the side when you can go around [Applause] oh another lucky to get back to halfway first tackle 48 now s bounces away from the defense but they he tried to throw it at the back of dragg down at six to [Applause] go Walker he'll greater Advantage is a penal do here Cooks having a discuss in the lungs play Up Tempo acting half he's called him to play on he says they from the pack down roosters Ali answers the coach of the RO yeah and this is why football days you can get around points on other days it's not on you've got to have a repertoire app with support dummy and go through them and unfort fortunately once they get into attacking dangerous when they've gone straight ahead it might click shortly shortly so the RO is game with it 20 before a double change for for the cordinate takes a well it might have been Peter exactly right he was called and that's just a lot of Defense yeah anyway some breaking news here Matt Gillette he's been playing for he'll be out for up to 3 months he could but for it hasn't been aggravated during it could be a lot worse for Nick that's miraculous at round one and the injury I had a fractured neck and I God knows what he's been through what part of the neck is's fractured it's painful if it's in your neck n made half a by Cody Walker short of halfway where about in The Roosters got it back away got the ball back away to Kon looks like cook looking for a straight and put down 25 there's the when he took off [Applause] before no touches we just got to scrum tackle let's have a little twist and then again at the and that took priority back and he got up and played the ball so it's one little tough fell he'll be fit by the roosters Kiri to work it Nichols will be to metic name oh he St through to Desco gathers him [Applause] in break the roosters first back down the time they go [Applause] [Applause] unbelievable what are we going to look at can we please just killed the moment I don't think there's any doubt on either but it's great work from Tesco to take advantage through the that's that's score screamer a couple of weeks ago well the TR both legs over ball Mitch what a finish but let's go back to when he gets the ball and when he gets the ball I'm thinking okay they TR w not it's a half chance at best here's and from this in the short side Harvey Norman replay out of the way I'll knock you ball down I'm thinking what's he going to do here and he didn't didn't hesitate he said I'll do it well the and now look p and there but across that camp Peter I didn't think we needed to go had to go stocky here and still couldn't put to keep to get the legs up in the air both the sideline that's how he do it all he can do it all and they do lead Now by [Applause] Co [Applause] [Applause] and first tackle after the and converted from the T shaking their heads door on Mitchell have just been watching want to pass the ball going to run that's what he did he learned from from s Sydney it's been lacking that on the fullback Victor ry's inside got Victor rley match nobody he doesn't get actually backed out of it Walker got the ball and 45 M out there minutes of the first this young fellow he's inside the 10 he's now Walker ball away to an unmarked win three quarter and Robert Jennings scores eight points for six with a kick they c h they want to have a look okay Joe I'm going a tackle four I got to try please reveal any obstruction he's such a clever player Cody Walker when they have looked dangerous down this end of the field it's generally doing what he's had the football in his hands Damen cook his his ankles okay he's just sprinted 30 mes run around down there ball back to Cody w thrs a dummy now the outside Defender there I think it's Manu is it he just commits himself completely he's not even looking at the football he's only got eyes for one man Greg engas remains as a support player it's a defensive decision by The Roosters Defender to go into Greg engas it's absolutely a defensive decision and by being totally blinket and the ball is grounded by Robert Jennings we have a decision he doesn't even know Cody Walker slipped through on his inside and created an overlap why would be looking at that for an obstruction anyway it's a try the green light takes it with the kick to come from Reynolds on the touch line and let's have a look at this in its entirety so the ball came out the back cook scares away brilliant Pace we saw all the markers in disarray and the smart dummy halfs do that and he's got the huge addition of speed to that Manu on the outside he's only caring englas and that made it much easier for Cody Walker Sutton played a really good role in that as well Johnny Sutton yeah nice little runaround play and kti Walker dummies digged into the line that's how they're making all their breaks just show and go go through the line I know they've scored in the corner but someone finally dug into the line before looking to to pass the ball that's a night H nice hit back from the rabbit o and Reynolds will try and convert quickly to Brad fitler on the touch line yeah Cooks a one looking dangerous you saw that ball come out from Mark Nichols I don't I don't know actually how the ball came out but there was four Defenders and once again just cooked just headed off up field he is lightning through there he he'd have every coach panicking it was either knocked out the back or came loose but it was effectively just a dummy half run even though it wasn't played and he just scurried away here's the kick now from Reynolds to lock them up at eight a piece strikes it heading towards the upright it is there what a kick we've seen two magnificent conver one LR Mitchell one Adam Reynolds yeah well if the goal toast were a meter wide there around the black dot that still would have gone over that went right over the black dot good work Cody Walker and S little run around now dummy and dig into them that's it through and stripped him on the outside nice play he's dangerous cook and Cody Walker they're the ones that that make you nervous and you saw in that try as well cooperon backing back and he can do that when no sides are Keen to try and exploit that if they can get at cooperon in a situation like that the fact that he went back but Manu went forward that opened up the hole a little bit wider for Walker he doesn't need much so George bures go back and play George got the ball from Walker now they'll come to The Blind Side Johnny Sutton push towards Touch won't go into it Ferguson did his level best and a little bit of a push and a shove from each of them they separate thankfully cook inside ball back to Big George George is held just short of the 30 inside the final 50 seconds of the first half at 8 all Nicholls Reynolds Oh quick hands away Johnston and gagy half through the tackle they got him by one leg he got up and win again gagy flick the ball out the back as he fell and they push away from Defenders before the tackle is affected now on Junior TOA from acting half cook he's car away straight through a game cook he flick the ball out the back they might score back to Cody Walker the pass was questionable 21 M out from the goal line took again last tackle they go to the air Reynolds he kicks across field for the Winger he goes High takes it beautifully flicked it out the back it's knocked on knocked on and yes change over well it's a long time and here a little bit of a disagreement out on the edge L MIT with Richie Kenna I can't remember an NL game in for a long time where a team has been split so many times straight up through the middle of the field it's extraordinary and still at 8 all at half time despite all those the scoreboards ridiculous given what we've seen well it'll be an interesting halftime in both in both dressing R so the roosters it's easy I mean your team we shouldn't be in the game but our defense has kept us in it it's eight all we shouldn't be there it's a great score line now we can come home over the second half and get a few things right for South Sydney you've just got to reconfirm what we're doing is really good when we get close to the line let's just not try to go around them too much try to dig into them and dig through them and be patient we're the better side we've just got to be the better Side by full time so England gets the game underway for the second half K straight away they got on the attack now Zane Tano brings the ball back to the 10 m line but there's a quartet of Defenders there from Rabbid o Ki again Robinson as he did along with Ferguson trying to take some pressure off the forwards he's got them for inside the 10 so that's a nice start for the Roosters on the third tackle they get the penalty and they race and take the punt into Touch free kick to follow after the penalty Victor Bradley is the dummy half and goes there now that's a good strong Run come W courner Bradley shocking passman straight past K mcon look like Madison picking up on the half [Music] volley back the other way to cron inside the 40 Ki all the ball went back around the corner straight to D gag guy dearo dearo dear just what you don't need I think was young butcher just looking to be a touch to adventurous there a Pally given away in the first set of six from South Sydney the ball thrown away by The Roosters their first set that butcher came into the game late of course T AO was ruled out just on the Eve with the start Maria hares comes into the starting line up that young legs on the bench now Sutton unlading the ball half break here made again making breaks up the center in the first half J too now they went to kick they run it cook out to Reynolds he'll go to the air now re Robinson attacks the ball he's lost it it's gone into the inal area tadesco will try and bring it oh he's lost it he's lost it they may have scored a try here through Adam eventually what about this I've got it play on at the moment yeah what about this what will he rule yeah Jared I'm back to tackle one I have a try now it'll all come down to I think it's all knock around the ball and then the South City knocker backwards prior to the grounding yeah that's the first man that tries to ground it bounce bounces it but does he bounce it backwards right side sou kick Chas is cleared as being ons side and makes a mle this R Robinson well there was no need to jump and he jumps he fumbles it ball is knocked back by roosters he's nailed to [Applause] disco now with the football on the tackle his leg hurts cuz he's gone over backwards and the ball's now gone out of his brass it hits the sou Sydney player gagy yep I don't believe he's playing at the ball at this stage it just hits him now he tries to get [Applause] it so it's all good up to this stage yeah it comes off his head what are we looking at here they want to see whether the ball was knocked on comes off the Winger forward into yeah he's not playing with the ball he's making a tackle the ball comes out and hits gagy on the shoulder now it'll hit him on the head there's a falcon try that in why are we going back who's got the video stop playing with the video just roll it Forward worse than my kids stop playing with the video can we just go through take the off them no one's knocked on here why are we looking at this well they're trying to find a knock on from Richie Kenna that's what they're trying to find out that's what there's no knock on there I agree with you yeah well let it play on hits him in the shoulder hits him in the head now he Carri by James Tesco it's tedesca that knocks it away I thought Gago tried to ground it and it's tadesco that'll get his hand to it and knocks it away so who gets it now does it bounce up for kryon does it bounces up for kryon he says what's this it's a football the ball is not grounded by James Tesco we have a live ball at this point Kon gets it and say what I do with it now he scores a try that's what he does put it down he does and the ball is grounded by Angus Kon we have a decision and after the forensic investigation we finally have a try isn't it hard to score a tri with it 128 kick to cam from the Ws a touch line honestly we'll be looking for fingerprints soon d d well I what a bizarre try I I can't understand why they kept looking as to whether Kenna had touch the ball because it was evident I think they everyone after the first third fourth fifth and sixth replay they didn't Brad fit downstairs well the great thing there for a s fan is when James Tesco got tackled in goal there were three s plays but no other roosters players they obviously thought they assumed that he was going to take the ball to ground Adam Reynolds puts up the bomb I got to say Ru Robinson's been having a great day under the high ball up until then and Tesco must have just winced when he went back over his knees and cden just scores a try like he was laying an egg there still three South players and no roosters there well there were three roosters that could have been there they were just walking watching the play yeah when we see James Tes go down go down like that you immediately fear that could be a real concern but it looks like he's up and at okay we know the problems he's CH with injury Reynolds from out wide he's bringing it back but not far enough it remains 128 the [Applause] [Music] [Applause] rabitos uh Tom keeper can you let me know it's not on the screen at the moment stop got to White you got to White whoa take it back so we had a little false start here the referee wasn't happy as Latrell Mitchell sent the ball towards the Paddington end so he's called it back so back we come with live action and we TR Mitchell to restart play after the try which is eventually scored stay back by Young C and Angus C [Applause] there's that kick that 5 me out they takeen burges surges on what George burges is in jump at number 10 he's been very very good as was his twin brother in the first Stander two John Sutton he's been heavily involved John Sutton if he stays healthy he seed and become the first sney played around 300 first grade games think of the great sne he players over the years and he becomes top of the [Applause] tree been a great great server of the club John Sutton over all that time it's quite amazing that they don't have somebody who' already wed up the Triple [Applause] Century anyway here's cook from dummy half Nichols goes at the line brought down to the Tackle by Victor Bradley fifth tackle the kick now comes from the six Cody Walker oh they tucked it out of the air through England try try try unbelievable stuff back to back they go the r and both from kicks first one James tadesco or re Robinson puts down this one I think James Tesco actually pulls out he decides not to jump and that gave a a clear shot for Greg englas beautifully placed on the Harvey Norman replay just watch to Desco he shapes to jump shap to jump and then no and Greg englas comes over the top and away he goes got one last week gets another one this week he's had a terrible time the champion player Greg engas injured in the first game last year he's had some personal issues he's F his way back into this comeback getting a little better every week that will give him enormous confidence to leap for that ball and then struggle to the try line to put it down look at the look on his face that's the old smile haven't seen it in a while good on him he just intimidated the others out of it he he wanted the football and others didn't contest it well that's the old Greg English the old Greg English just goes and gets it done he doesn't matter who's in his way and it's been a really long road back for him very difficult not just the injury but the psychology of it all and you know he's not a young man anymore he's getting towards the back end of his career but that'll give him the world of confidence to do that and this is the score we probably were expecting given the we the possession they had in the first 40 minutes of rapidz but it was 8 all and now all of a sudden it goes to 168 Reynolds 12 in from touch Eastern side hits it sweetly it is straight over the black dot 88 [Applause] [Music] [Applause] just [Applause] white and from the restart again Latrell Mitchell and a g verg dja vu all over again as they once [Music] said he made forward progress right [Applause] exactly well the score line now reflects the game so that's where the score should have been at half time by my Reckoning see if the roosters can fight back but South Sydney certainly have a head of steam up now it's Mark Nichols with it cook Reynolds with it but set upon by those Defenders cordner and Ki Kon hold again in The Tackle by cordner vior Radley there as well there's a high kick from Reynolds are they let it bounce again but this time it bounces for T BL Ferguson who brings it back towards the 40 yeah that was a Mis kick there from Adam Reynolds he didn't hit it the way he intended sometimes they're very dangerous it actually came down in no man's land Roost his Defenders or back three they thought he was going to kick it further than he did they get football in reasonable position here third tackle in the opposing half to plays it short ball away but they're awake to that and they gather in Madison on the edge of the field on that right hand side back the other way Maria High Greaves into the defense struggling free popped it out the back beautifully came back away Radley Radley goes inside the 20 bur just got in big Georgie got him plays it back rley again fifth tackle CR out the back and goes now oh big tackle on Ki he flicked it back away picked up by Latrell Mitchell he goes across field he's chased away from Nicholls he's still going he's 10 out he got the ball back away they'll near have to kick the South City defense converges change over no no no no sign up not here well that fifth tackle took so long Joseph Manu forgot it was fifth tackle he couldn't remember that long that was still play on it was extraordinarily long because of the weaving run of L Mitchell now that offl by Jared H funny enough is the first offload by rooster forward tonight by any player tonight he's yet another one by the rabbitz to cook rabitos that's their 13th offload The Roosters one Junior TOA that was Kon by the way that offloaded to cook nine short of halfway he's having a good game says Co Burgess he's unloaded in the tackle Zane Tano cook again Dam's through gone straight through again cook broke a tackle then lost it forward it's set from behind I think out of the way by support player but it would have been the Winger well he was gone someone grabbed him by the shorts there might have been the young fell Victor rley he just gets a hand out and holds on with one hand on the back of the jersey look at that otherwise cook was gone one hand on the Jersey the right hand comes free and the left hand hangs on for dear life to the back of the shirt just a reminder coming up VB Friday Night Football Dragon Shar wi Stadium live and free 7:30 tomorrow night and Sunday football manly West tigers at Lotto land Brook B live and free from 3:00 in the [Music] afternoon here's Tesco Breaking Free of tackles eventually put down just short of the [Applause] halfway we' only had about 10 and half minutes of this second half scoreb there for mackers a straight through they go to Desco he threw the dummy oh he had support on the inside he shouldn't let the ball go that way Bradley under the posts Victor Bradley oh there was a hit of a Shepherd there but the referee said play on his cordner got in the way Joseph Manu I think it is yes it was no it wasn't it was KY my apologies here's Cron tavano and T is put down 10 [Applause] out inside kick back away but oh what's he doing back there mark Nichols he's back on the goal line r got the three quarter yeah he's been watching videos he read that one beautifully de takes it Forward they were at Close Quarters Tesco and Radley through the mdle he tried to position his [Music] [Applause] man in retrospect he should have St it yeah he who hesitates laughs laughs something like that what of Ni mixed metaphors here's the high kick oh the crowd with a sense of ooing and aring as Tesco took it Jason Clark back out there goes up B slowly Ki back to Ferguson took the couple of Liberties there fusing was allowed latitude to play the ball well Off the Mark penalty leg pull too long I think let him go well they just taken Victor rley off and his dummy half work there was as sharp as I've seen the roosters all night he put tesca away he was there to back up but he's been immediately replaced by Jake fr who comes back out gordner thought the ball was going to a player on the inside of him and reached out to take it there's those meters going what about that 1154 to 790 rabid over the roosters that's Tano out wide three Defenders there the other burges is back I can't wait to see Cook's numbers at the end of this game because he will play the 8 is King C on the outside that's butcher yeah mat butcher in number eight oh he almost lost the ball friend from Ria har gaves Johnson there with cook and Burgess that's Thomas short ball away butcher put down good tackle again kryon they're only a meter out there's the post out the back they go to the air again from Kon Ferguson will go high the ball's knocked backwards play on I think and it's come back back away to the second row of Madison they're going to have a long look at this one okay M I'm back to tackle on a tackle six I have a try it's been a real Target this season far kick sometimes catching it on the full and throwing it back or just knocking it back he's on side be a man offside to the right of coopa cron but the two outside chases are well and truly fine but he might be the TR scorer might be too he's on he's off side's right side kick chase is on side wow well he is the tri scorer yeah it's just a matter of whether that's gone forward it all it's not Ferguson it's actually Manu gets up with an arm yeah man Manu for sure but that's gone back You' think that's backwards another Falcon about a backwards one don't forget he has said try [Applause] yeah looked a bit worse from that angle well you don't know whether it's going forward off the South City play Then deflected yeah I think it may have gone forward off the after you play the the pack by back by Joseph Manu we're playing on to this point okay will'll be a try well I I really thought this man was offside it's interesting Gus cuz we had at the end of of looking at him he actually takes a step backward I don't know if it made any difference or not but as the ball was kicked he actually did step back now I don't know whether that put him on side but I think he realized that he was in danger and the ball is grounded by Ryan Madison we have a decision well we got a try to the roosters and they needed that one they really needed it gra fitler he still as right Ryan Madison knew what he was doing he stepped back behind the kicker which put him on side there he goes he moves back behind the kicker he actually scored a try nearly exactly the same last week last week it was fergo that threw the ball inside to Ryan Madison against krala was Joseph M this week that's another kickoff a try they don't seem to have many other answers of roosters here's Latrell Mitchell to make it 1814 to South Sydney very important kick from adjacent of the [Applause] post and he guides it towards the uplight it is a goal it is 18 points to 14 the rabitos [Applause] [Applause] white the kick and the restart to come [Music] from englas goes out wide Ki Oh What A collision there hares and the center came reeling out of it D gagy for South Sydney he's all right here's the man that made the Run friend we've had three tries in this second half in 14 minutes ball from [Applause] bombs Corner this is a solid set a six so far fourth tackle short of halfway friend again and you what he was doing all those years ago Johnny Pi the bomber and here's another Midfield bomb from Ki just a bit too deep taken by Kenna Richie Kenna set upon by those Defenders from The Roosters he's just outside he 10 [Music] [Applause] it's dangerous every time he touches the football G gagy Clark oh Gord came sprinting up out the line and missed him oh a half break here by K J bad misses there he's still going yeah if he looked to his left Reynolds was steaming into a big hole kryon tried to step through it rather than pass verg back away Walker high kick now Ferguson takes it well this time and then almost broke away from the tackle eventually put down by Robert Jennings a lot of the forwards in the NRL just don't look for a pass do they Kon had Reynold steaming into a hole there and never thought once about off linges go after Manu had played it friend [Applause] it's NAA back out there where har gries back to The Interchange l k l p Mitchell there's a bit of danger L Mitchell back away to KI chips and Chase Cooper on the fly it bounces it bounce the gain in goal it'll be taken down by Johnson he's going to Sprint back into the field of play and scores well he died full stretch and they put a hand on him that contitution tackle it's not voluntary he dangerous a the tra mitell isn't it I remember when I said look out it came out of me mouth before I realized it as soon as he got the ball you felt like something would be on poov Cooper couldn't get the bounce there and yeah just luck it was just bad luck for the roosters after the break on the kick by kry LR Mitchell here's Clark that's the 20 M line just behind him buter the tack and big Burg look at him go he's just back out Thomas straight up the middle of the play the ball area again they did in the first half the burges boys inside the 40 Reynolds looking for a 4020 but it bounces INF field now now tadesco took it in the in goal area comes back to the 20 good Chase kryon there with gagy Ki to Robinson got up quickly and gon friend he's pushed it he got the ball they go straight through now again through Madison one of the TR scores for the roosters he got to halfway before they got hold of him Ki running back a angle there's is that kryon again he's made about four of these tackles there's only been four made now they get the ball back away Latrell Mitchell he's going up towards the 20 and drag ground fifth tackle friend goes a skinny line kicks back on the inside oh that's a terrible terrible kick because the fullback Alex Johnston mely put one foot into the in goal area constitutes it caught in the in goal area and brings it back to the 20 well what what could he possibly think he was going to achieve going down a one yd Blindside on last play like that whatever it was it didn't work [Applause] out he goes down a two yd Blindside and kicks and his teammates are what the hell are you [Applause] doing they've got the ball all the way back inside the 40 now and cook is going to run turns the ball back away C Walker they've G straight to almost that was almost vintage engas quick play the ball cook he dashes away on the outside Reynolds on the inside verg he's held on the tackle he's got them right in front of the post they'll take a kick at goal to make a 20 points 48 one would imagine you would think so but again just pouring through the middle of the rock well that was a weird decision from Jake [Applause] Fran they take the kick at goal 184 to the rabitos [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] [Applause] so we've gone inside the halfway mark of the second half at 9 and 1 half to go the kick at goal about to be taken by Reynolds well that that little short side play on last play by Jake fren gave them a 20 M tap seven tackles and in every one of the tackles they just kept marching The Roosters up the field until they caught the defense offside underneath the post and they just kept marching through the back of the play the ball turning it inside finding space finding yardage bending The Roosters back until the defense couldn't get back and the referee found a penalty 70 m in about five plays extended to a six-point margin here with that kick and they do Straight between the uprights coming up next on the Footy Show Aaron Joey and Ryan girdler joined by the West Tigers Captain Benji Marshall Cowboy Superstar Jonathan firston the Footy Show comes up next on the Wide World of Sports back we come to the center of the halfway line and yet again latrel Mitchell to restart so the amazing thing is given the way the possession that South City had the roosters are still in the game with 18 half the go looks like the the penny Dro to sou Sydney had play this last 20 minutes we saw from Luke K's ball to Latrell Mitchell they should be going he thre a cut out pass and that immediately put Mitchell in space between him and his Defender they nearly score the end of that Jason Clark takes it forward there's only one place they're in the game Ray and that's on the scoreboard it's the only place they're in the game they're not in it anywhere else it goes wide gagy steps inside chase down field and brought down the attack little Mitchell he showed him a bit of space and Mitchell gathered him in Walker dummy on the inside got it away to engas little step and engas looking dangerous on that left Edge put down 42 M out quick play the ball by engas they scary from acting half Katie Walker has got them going backwards he SP the ball back on the inside it came back away to Johnston run around with cook he dummies then threw the ball away to kryon oh kryon is hit by latrel Mitchell great tackle great tackle play the ball they appeal for a penalty Reynolds goes high now Ferguson stands his ground he should take it okay does it and takes the ball oh he's lost it he's lost the ball play on it's come back away referee says it's okay they break tackles now through Walker he's put down you can't believe that he had the ball safely his grasp they go again through Sutton Sutton's almost there push back into the field of play three Defenders Dylan Nappa one of them he'll play the ball almost on the line C CL back away to Engish engas is in can he get it down second get one back him in I think he was held up originally but maybe at the end of it he's been able to get down in his reaction says that I've got might be just trying to sell it I'm sure they hold him up initially [Music] right of the death but it's a good play this is what we were saying in the first half don't worry about going wide just go back through the Middle where you make all the rest of the ground plenty of bodies here don't forget he said now TR so you got to actually see the ball on the ground otherwise I'll support the onfield official well we got 28 cameras we'll find it somewhere they've got that remot back you confiscated it gas and now they've got it back yeah we're not going to see too much here there's players everywhere well the BL with the best looks the BL that made the decision the BL and the yellow shirt there he he he's right there he he can't be any closer unless he has his head stuck right into that tackle and he said no try he can't see the ball on the ground so they'll have to go with his [Applause] decision that's only early in the tackle count I think it's the first Peter I just saw up on the screen Greg engas maintains possession as in ins sufficient evidence to overturn the onfield decision of held up we have a decision no try we come back to the 10 m now for play the ball it'll be the second tackle so they still got plenty up their sleeve trying to figure out what Blake Ferguson did then he took it beautifully up that's tack defend the ball comes out the front stand on the line that's two Greg use your foot your foot use your foot he did use his foot cook walk vergis oh look at that for a run big Sensational plays it back again cook Reynolds Reynolds dummies to kick they've got an overlap comes away on the outside he threw the dummy saton try beautiful stuff Johnny satton beautiful beautiful work he had them at sixes and sevens going back yeah but what about the dummy kick it fooled The Roosters defense they they were certain that he was going to kick he shaped a kick he had the Chasers going through on his shoulder did Adam Reynolds this is the lost ball and Greg engas has played it that one ball comes back to his side and watch here Adam R he shapes he's going to put it through so the chasers on the outside they all turn to chase Cooper cron Joseph Manu and by the time they realized in the Harvey Norman replay there was no kick coming it was too [Applause] late well he did everything about put the ball under his boot Reynolds he did everything Brad fitler's downstairs he did a great job John S once again someone dummying and just running both Manu and fergo were getting up in the line looking for intercept or to close the play Down sudden was just too strong took on Kon just dragged him over the line there's Kon trying to get his foot show and go too big too strong oh as we said earlier he could create history for the rid days later in the season John Sutton but gee he's been a fantastic player for South Sydney over a long long time it was a 58 he's gone into the back of the the scrum he used to have a lot of mistakes when he was a young BL but he's he's pretty much foolproof these days he he's a very mature player and obviously he's one of those players other players like to play with 2414 Adam Reynolds [Applause] right boot bringing it back magnificently straight between the uprights that's a handy kick to extend the lead 2614 they came into the game Outsiders s Sydney they haven't played like that and they weathered the Storm at 8 all after they looked like they should have been leading by 10 12 or 14 points and now they do lead by that sizeable margin even though he dummed the to kick there Reynolds the defense recovered they had a good shot on S there and he just muscled his way to the goal line right there Latrell this has been very dominant very dominant Latrell mate you have to wait to to to well that's the second time the TR off I have to re when that clock goes it tells me to restart the game you turn that in the really start yeah step back up here we just kicked it before the clock yeah the referee's got a signal that you kick the ball off and RR just went before the referee signal regardless what the clock says the referee restarts playing he had here we go again gee he's been good it's hard to pick the best player Burgess but both of them have been what about Johnny saton 161 Burgess that's Tom 15 4 Georgia 127 and Tesco 140 but oh they play the platform those larger fellows what two is I thought Damen cook would be on that list let me have a look over here you look at that all watch's this 120 M I reckon they missed about 50 it's [Applause] right you reckon they might have use the remot and fast forwarded through a couple of those RS and and he's made 33 tackles here's Clark now kon's a bit uh as your farther in back play as Reynolds Kicks Down field targeting the touch line ree Robinson picks it up there's still plenty of Tim Li relatively in the game of rugby league but uh they've been completely dominated here the roosters tonight by this very enthusiastic South City side looking for win number three yeah they're not home yet and despite the fact they got beaten last week made a couple of Errors late in that game against the dragons but they had momentum then they brought that into the game might have got beaten last week but they got momentum out of that game they were playing one of the team two teams unbeaten well they were terrific against the dragons really good they weren't beaten they just ran out of time they were coming up orson's on the field by the way flick pass quickly Ferguson down the touch line the cover came across he comes in fi the kick now gron hearing after it the ball's there taken in the in goal area they bring us back on the field to play and it's Johnson who'll run away from the Defenders out like they won't have a look at something here Adam Reynolds runs into cre the CR I wasn't sure if it was illegal when I first saw only a penalty cuz sou already have the ball the referees believe it was yes Noor I think it's the tax judge or the P referee who's called it because the other referee was Brad fitler's downstairs well I I don't think it's a penalty I think he's kept his line Sorry Freddy down to you well the problem is I think every time the roosters in a bit of space they keep resorting to the kick you saw Luke Kiri go through before he he opted for the kick while Kong was inside and then over the RO inside Blake Ferguson they seem like they're can only score tries off kicks at the moment Peter's right that wasn't a penalty Reynolds Just maintained his line he didn't move off the line he was on anyway they might reap a reward here and they've gotten it for offside so they're going to get another crack 2640 they get back to 2620 in life will be a bit nervous for rabido supporters particularly with about 12 minutes to go here at the back oh it's G an no one Mitchell's got to pick it up one handed if it have gone to void Corner yeah he was a Ying Gap wasn't scores they've lost about 25 M some total almost the goal line back outside the 20 2614 inside the final 12 they must SC off this set no look pass again from kir to cordner he plays it quickly uh penalty push him off the ball pushed him off the ball so they're inviting them back into the game here the rabbit o they take it back to the 10 they set themselves back here back go get back on the line well Cooks offside and so two [Applause] others Mitch oron out there for the last 15 minutes for the roers his first involvement tonight so here they are friend FR inside ball again held here Isaac Leu is back out there that's a 10 behind him short ball away to that man orber and Peter is in the in goal area push back to the field of play no I think it was nap he was even Dyan nap you're right it was a 10 here's the ball out the back it com back away to this guy he's tried to get on the outside of the defense but Walker there to bring him down Cody Walker dummies back to the open side she I've had some possession here friend G long pass intercepted and plucked out of the air they quickly give it away and surrender possession is Dan gagy got the ball and he's dumped in the tackle well that's sheer frustration one would imagine oh that's n again yeah this time on C here it is this time there's a hand involved in the tackle live action back on full screen 10 to go 2614 that was their chance The Roosters to get within six big Burgess up the Ws halfway there's a kick by Walker downfield it's heading towards touch but it's cut off by Ferguson he's going to link up with Tesco that's the 20 R Robinson he stepped through one but not through another he's put down Adam Reynolds there that's orberson Ferguson through center field but that defense is Resolute and there's Burgess again Thomas cordner Clark over the top je kon's been good two inside ball back away to Desco but the defense was awake with that it's Clark again in Burgess over the 40 towards the 30 cook there he's over the top of him downfield inside bard of friend FR away at the last tackle oh he the ball carrying arm hit the ground so it's a change over car Turner on for the rabitos by the way and jump at number 21 just saw himan gagy friend the tackler they very tired South Sydney look at this bunched around the play the ball and they get a penalty can you believe that now they're going nowhere South Sydney were going nowhere you look at the play the ball they were all hands on hips hands on hes you could throw a doily over them they were so bunched but the referee finds a penalty they were going nowhere South Sydney nowhere they don't deserve a penalty just for the benefit of our younger viewers a doily is one of those things that n used to put on the table and then put a vase over the top of it I knew that but only through I've never seen them before right you got to be our old our age to know what doilies are guess they're very small oh they're small My grandmother used to crochet doilies yes what that penalty has done has brought the field goal into the set of six we're under 8 minutes to go they really had to score they had they had four cracks of them didn't they with penalties and weight of possession Thomas Burgess out the back it comes oh the balls come out the back it'll be no he said it's not on it's come forward then come off a roosters player Peter can I ask you this I would imagine one of the attractions of the roosters signing Cooper prom would be to tap into the attacking prowess and organization of the Melbourne storm yes yet would appear to me the kubac konks come to the roosters and they've tried to adapt him to their system the system that was being run by Mitchell Pierce rather than tap into anything that he was doing at the Melbourne storm he's not playing like he does at the Melbourne storm no and he's and he's basically throwing the ball to to Luke Kier so yeah we certainly not seeing for I couldn't believe that I'm sure it was in that set of six when they had their last attacking play a few minutes ago go Boyd cordner I believe was off his shoulder and he's he scores get off just have a look at this oh now in fact that was it was Luke Ki if he thrs it to voy Cordon he scores but I agree I I don't see caon having come into this roosters outfit and playing the style of game that he did for Melbourne which you would imagine would have been part of the attraction in signing him well it's all of the attraction got cring in so you push him off surely it's all of the attraction they must score short here's the ball back to C he's going through Center boy cner but he's only about five out when he's put down see go line back behind him as a G oh gee wait slow up well you're buying for his kicking game as well and his coolness and all of those other attributes but the basis the foundation to his game what you would imagine here we've got 612 to go and Greg's coming over to have a chat Victor Bradley takes the tap now they've got the ball and it's Leu with it a meter out so here's their chance they must score this you think so attacking for Bradley PR out the back Ki KI lobs at the top straight into the hands of the wing three quarter another penal for offside Brad fit's downstairs is six penalties by sass if someone doesn't get sent off like right now then it's just absolutely ridiculous six penalties in the last two sets the roosters have had down on the sou C line all they're doing is refilling the fuel tanks Nappa 9 M out he said last time that's your last chance must have been the second last toesca out wide almost into the there they go put down the tackle Madison he'll play the ball back only a meter out Sutton there again back the other way vior Radley BR Ki Oh that's a shocking pass lro Mitchell made it look like KY went back for it then takes the tackle time running out inside the final five they are down 2614 they must score here's the ball K takes them on goes inside the 10 Nichols takes it Radley goes himself but there's plenty of Defense there again Johnston Nichols then the ball out wide they're going to I'm not quite sure whether he meant to do that but it worked out a as the ball came back away to the center and they've lost the ball well one of two things has happened if you're the roosters and you've signed Cooper Kon I think the first thing you sit down with him and say mate how do you want to run the offense and coer Kon has either refused to dive Vol the Melbourne Secrets or the roost said well we think we do it better you got to fit into our system he's a mar player he's got to run the guy he's a how many he's a half back I can't believe it' be the former gas surely Cooper the attraction come out the change would be to bring his Game and his style of Game and his formation with [Applause] him I think he'd love that that challenge of being the man that they they base their attack around well at 35 years of age I think that's the attraction isn't it well it is and again the other things that come with that in inverted comms game management kicking game at first and foremost well I can't see any he's brought from the Melvin storm style of football to The Roosters so the roosters have said we're happy with our style you fit in with us so the first game of the round will be an upset South Sydney with three to go lead 2614 and they deserve to win Ferguson Bradley was an acting half Victor Radley six short of halfway Victor's air again as thees plays it CR out wide down the touch line they go Joseph M he's put down 38 M out 240 to go Leu well there's been a few of those passes tadesco away from one into the fence away from two he's still going spiders on him to Des go inside ball back away to Madison flick pass out the back P he stands there got the ball back away and now the ball is with orberson who's put down on the tackle 30 m out Mitch orbon fifth tackle they go line side inside ball look here he got the ball back away they overally great try to Young Victor rley he puts it I one have a look tackle six time [Applause] off got it just have a look at the grounding is a stink here with the D G got involved with Ki by the not I should say k Walker well we've seen finishes between these two clubs before there's been two Tri in the last couple minutes we tackle six in a try please confirm when Luke kir gets the ball he doesn't lose it into a Rabbid o player from the pass from kunun and then to ground it's a big kick for Latrell Mitchell coming up the bunker wants to look as to whether or not Ki bobbles the ball into a [Applause] Defender oh we did I reckon kon's touched [Applause] that so he juggles it and if the ball comes loose and touches kryon which it does right there y a knock on you're right that is a knock on no try the ball's away from his body and the hands bang back into his body constitutes a knock on it but hits the other player or the other player plays it Luke K in going to take possession of the ball loses possession into Angus Kon that constitutes a knock on we have a decision turn the decision game over yeah that's it game over a little Bobble and Angus pron TRS out the left Duke got a very for tackle that's a play the ball is we featured him before the game up against Boyd cner and he's been relentless tonight Angus Kon well he's a rooster next [Applause] year very good play three-year contract from 2019 with the roosters it's a big win by sou they've been really dominant very very good hold under of the coaching staff is another rampaging run by I think this time George as opposed to Thomas Kyle Turner in those blue boots plays it inside the final 90 seconds are about to go Nichols has been good Off the Bench as well Mark Nichols been very good for them havn't that a bad play really I might have had him as a cricket commentator early in The Telecast might have been a Nicholas but thank you right his nichels c i it would be a gra that we can have a gray Nichols here's a field goal attempt charge down now the balls there but we've only got 112 to go and they tied oh they lost it then it was a double knock on or they say it came off the knee of ISAC Leu so it's play on re Robinson he's got latel Mitch his outside so maybe a lucky late try with 55 seconds to go for the roosters cord well grro was standing up and there was no one in the middle so he had to take the tackle Victor Radley the kick for them now Tesco is getting through there's no one at hand but now they get back quickly and Johnson has kicked it on the more Park Road and South Sydney fans rise rooster fans are leaving the ground the local Derby has been run and one and the rabitos will have bragging rights until next they meet it's been comprehensive but nothing fluky about it they've been very very good very very good and dominant credit to Anthony see bow in the catching staff well done to them that just backs up the great performance last week against the competition leaders the dragons not easy to come up after a heavy game like that but they've done it look at it they're very very happy with themselves thoroughly deserved great performance by the ridos so there it is deserved winners the South Sydney ridos over the Roosters by 26 points to 14
