Welcome to Saturday night footy
Welcome to our coverage of tonight’s NRL clash between the Sydney Roosters and Parramatta at Allianz Stadium. Dom Brock on blog duties with you tonight.
Plenty of changes for the Roosters this week, with James Tedesco (concussion) sidelined, along with fellow Origin stars Sam Walker, Reece Robson and Lindsay Collins, who suffered a concussion in round 17. Cody Ramsey replaces Tedesco at fullback, Hugo Savala lines up at halfback and Connor Watson starts at hooker.
NSW playmaker Mitchell Moses is out for the Eels with a corked thigh, with Jonah Pezet and Ronald Volkman starting in the halves.
The Eels’ five-eighth role has been in the news this week with the club expected to make a play for Jarome Luai who has been given permission to leave the Tigers at the end of the season.
Parramatta are sitting in 15th place on the ladder and already have one eye on the future, while the Roosters are in third and will be looking to find top form in the run to the finals as a genuine premiership contender. Kick-off is at 7.35pm.
