[Valheru]

Robbo has made some changes

Manu moves to left wing outside of Latrell with Aubo at Right centre inside of Fergo and Reece Robinson has been dropped thankfully.

Up front Tetevano starts with Napa and JWH goes to the bench with FPN getting a run too. FPN should at least offer some enthusiastic running off the bench.

Jake Friend survives but must absolutely be on his last chance.

SST is on the extended bench which means he is still a chance to play this week and his injury must be quite minor.

 

[Captain Apollo]

The Roosters website said SST's injury would keep him out for up to 2 weeks. There may be some chance he'll be fit to play (even if it is a minor one) so they named him in the squad in case he does recover in time, otherwise he could not be called up into the side if they didn't name him now. Somehow tough I'll be surprised if he plays. We'll get a better idea tomorrow afternoon/evening when the squad is trimmed to 19 players.

 

[Captain Apollo]

Squad has been trimmed to 19. SST officially ruled out whilst Reece Robinson is off to Wyong.
