Parramatta 31 defeated Newcastle 24
I was at the double header at Henson Park. Norths are struggling a bit at the moment with their four Storm players all out for the game aswell as 6 others out through injury. This meant a couple of Jersey Flegg players were called up, and they both played quite well. The Roosters had to much class for Norths with Ned Catic, Richard Faooso, Brett Firman and Jamie Soward all in their squad. I thought Catic was the best for the Roosters.
The Newtown/Dragons match was close with Newtown getting over the line a couple of times but no try being awarded. They won it right at the end.
