Sydney Roosters vs Newcastle Knights Preview
Newcastle’s effort and discipline have kept them competitive amid injury challenges, but they now face a Roosters side building momentum. Sydney’s second-half surge last week highlighted their growing cohesion, with a forward pack capable of controlling territory and a backline ready to capitalise. The Knights may remain competitive early, but sustaining that effort against a side with the Roosters’ depth looms as a significant challenge. Expect Sydney to assert themselves as the match wears on.
