there steep the new crop of the future so the roosters will will receive the ball here in the first half they got the winds in their back so they run to the right of the ground and straight away it's nafu w who takes it up who's in the side of for Victor round there and now Wazi has his first touch in rugby league the boy from bwood who's played 11 test for his country for Rugby Union for the Wes and also with rugby sevens luno going across field there now and he's lost the ball The Tackle soly scrum head to the to the rabbit eyes well this is a positive start for the for the home side the final game of the season for them they want to go as a winner particularly for their teammates who are leaving and and also for that Ron cut well they come it with intent and that's how and that's the positive intent from the South City side it would also be Ben hornby's last game as caretaker coach as well and he wants to go with a victory so the scrub is 30 m out infield they just push along the line and ends up there with tarade Mill got to watch out for his offload tonight he's the best of the business in season 2024 so they're just happy to play in the middle of the field inside the first a minute and a half of this game cook with a touch going to Burgess so the two men leaving combine on this occasion they're 5 me out from the line they going the right with Hawkins who's back at the side tonight due to the injury to Jack whon R has a quick play the ball they go out the back now it goes to Duncan with the head gear on he's 5 me out from the line You'll have that head gear off as the game goes on Walker switches the play out of Hawk as it puts a kick across field tap backwards there by the roosters and and pger spel with it ug stays in the field of play well that's good work there by Junior p and su's in a little bit of trouble on this left head side he might have dislocated a finger or done a wrist injury well not good signs here for the Ro early as I said they lost three key players last week they don't need they don't need more in the casualty Ward so they're just working out their own 20 M Zone here the roosters with Angus kryon with his new head cut headcut with actually no hair at this stage last tackle now so a driving kick down fi as J gr comes back and he gets absolutely manhandled there by Conor Watson he's got a lot of work on his hands tonight Conor Watson from dummy half we know he's so agile on the attack but he's going to also have to do a lot of work at defense he doesn't usually play a long long minutes of football so that'll be interesting to see if the South C side can work him over but K time he's lost the football and the roosters end up with an inside sou territory so a little bit of let off there for the for the roosters early on in this game Terrell May fings out the back to Tesco ducked under one he can't duck under though David Mal this young upcoming front rower who's had a bit of an decision you like to forget and now they drive themselves in cent of field it's B Len who's lost the football so it's a bit sloppy to start this game for both sides the occasion got both has got to both teams there's a lot of players on both sides that have played for their for clubs Luke kry was a set played in the sou 2014 Grand Final Angus crot had played for sou originally we know latr Mitchell has not played tonight had played originally in the roosters 9 Grand Final Rog CP we just mentioned the imort an immortal had played for both clubs so no spot early in this game but I wouldn't be surprised there could be a little bit spot as the gy goes on particularly for a clash like this tonight it doesn't matter if it's two teams at the bottom the ladder it means everything to beat to beat to beat the roosters or South if you play for one of these clubs Mii plays in the middle of the field they push it wide Haw good B with Walker gray absolutely got shot he lost the football before he got absolutely hammered and it's Su is the man will we know he got sent off in origin one for this a tackle oh gra just absolutely a bit wobbly as he got up oh he oh he felt like he was on the guard Express in the middle of the Outback well the referees let this one go so it's only a scrum there's no penalty out of it Jo gray will probably have to come is he going to come off the field no he's staying on for this stage but would be surprised that the medical bunker will say he have to go off and have an assessment that was a huge hit well he did that same tackle of R Walton origin one on this ground and on that occasion he was set off on this occasion he gets a reprieve well both teachers need to get in the Rhythm this game at the moment because it's been very stop start with erors so far with we just need to see some completed set so far this beautiful night here at the Olympic Stadium Maro gets it to carry cron charging on it now against his former Club quick play the ball whats a darts gets it now on a little juggle there from theu White and he's been tackled inside the South Sydney 20 couple tackles to go now Kiri combine with the Des out the back those two combined so far well this season and it's c is pulled down couple meters out from the line they go out the back now finds it to kir with a Crossfield kick now it's a try and it's no W need a Wy who scores a the Boo for the roosters Marky marks over gets the opening try in rugby league we's done it at you in the past Andi gets it down beautiful kick by Luke kry beautiful Crossfield kick he put it on a time he just got it in behind there to of tyan Monroe and there was always one man who was going to get it and it was NE Wazi who gets the opening points here in this great RAR since 198 the roosters versus South cdy the roosters for South Sydney D and they got off at the stands to Marky Mark well it all start the middle of the fair with some good play of the balls they just got four with kryon and a Fu white and on the last tackle it was pinpoint accuracy well you didn't have to do that in Union two much do know W Wy that's about will never forget well it's great to see that he scored a Tron de Bo as now suie who's G over the union slots it over right between the post to make it six0 to the roosters a terrific start for the trucks well as I said they absolutely hammered South Sydney early in the year and they're looking to do it again it was actually the Roes at won 26 to 12 last year not South Sydney so and on that night it was James sedesco who scored the trial that night there's not there's no one else who played on that night is still at the club so or out with injuries so could they could they repeat history as they did last year and also earlier this year it's been a while since these two clubs play but when they do play there's always five Brimstone it's just been hard foot at stage I go wide again with Ki now this is pong in a little bit of space gets on the inside and it was taken there by su Le but he's lost the football there was plenty of support back on the inside he just couldn't find the intended target beautiful breakdown the left hand side P trying to put the afterburners on but Su just couldn't get his two bits to it OB the Expos that right hand side defense Richie Kenna and Jacob gay guy very very young a very young Winger with a center who's probably not played a lot of football this year this is Monro taking up also sh key is playing his 100 first grade game tonight as well so we'll see him from the bench later hopefully they could do it for him too in a milestone game and now there's a penalty here to the South City side for street so the r look a bit all the running so far this first 10 minutes but first opportunity for S tackle four or five would be so crucial for S where they end up they need to p egel and one basket on that left hand side of the field and they do it with so much success welli now in the middle of the field follows up with Duncan out back to Walker FES out it now to Tar Mill beats one pops it back to Walker here's Tom Burgess down he flings out the back to cook cook is still going a be the crowd will be off their feet here if cookle burgees get a try tonight bur is a dumy half in the front line now they're three me out from the line South Cook abs and bur and bur put on it backside soly come up with a beauty last tackle now they put a little kick dab kick in and a w neari takes it inside ball there from Sand Smith and Thea gets downfield oh that's a great turning for defens and attack there by The Roosters oh to death goes clutch get a hamstring there hopefully he's not damaged it oh Trent Robinson will be having heart attack in the box at the moment hopeing they haven't lost their Captain Maru now gets him short of the 30 m line South Center of the ground wide out a Kiri beautiful hands from sandon Smith and paga had to cllean that ball up but the referee's going to come back he's ruled that it's gone forward well that was disappointing well the roosters are turning on in this one they nearly went from the length of the F from the on the last tackle beautiful ball back on the side from noag he's had some magical touches so far good combination of sand Smith to Tesco went downfield but Tesco looked like come up okay hopefully hasn't damaged any hamstring there he's back in the he's back behind the L all ready to go so good signs there for the roosters is now Jacob host BS his way into Rooster's territory dis is happy to hit the ball up here the one out here the South City side easy meat for the defense here by the roosters in the middle of the park down of Hawkins combining with his half partner he's host now once again pulled down by tanoa and Spencer lenu 20 me out they C to the blind they switch it back down to Walker now gets it back to Hawkins burges quick hands kagi he puts a kick in and tadesco was always there wasn't one of kon's best kicks he might want to he might have to get his license taken away there maybe put it maybe put it s for suspended well they there was some room out out wide there for South City they're just a little bit slow on attack there they just had enough time to regrouping defense here as su he Maks a break down the left hand side big defense from Kenna coming on The Blind Side Kon it's a penalty here I think was a high tackle no he's got it's a penalty for an elbow by Angus cry when he's carrying the football well that's a fair enough penalty I don't know I don't know really why he had to put the bumper bar up there Angus cry we know J har has done this for all his career I didn't get it I didn't get it there from Angus kryon and he's been put a report for it too it's just not necessary from Angus Cen he just had a bit of a brain snap there Angus he's all fire ready to go gets his former Club they had the football in hand and they giving away penalty and now South cdy will that be back inside the R's 20 Burg just now tries to run over the top of yagna Fu white 12 out from the line Duncan just passes there to Walker run around with host gets it on the bu that's good defense there fromi long ball now here for S it all breaks down the middle of the fairwell they're just going to come back to that right side I think it's all building there no they're going to come to the blind this is malali now easy contained last tackle now Walker they're going along the line it's still the last gray oh that's a good shot of kagy that was a ripper oh that's a good shot who was that was that suly G oh that's a good shot there on a bigger man and K call a tongy they just went they just kept passing along the line no it was young pong he's come up with a beauty Brave play there for the young Winger bobsy tonight there's a lot of players who have been rested out with injury Daniel tupu is also out as well so he's getting a chance tonight I think tupu just went in with a bit of an injury cloud and Trent Robertson was felt best was AR rest that was a high tackle there for malali that's got to be a penalty hit in the roost as it is so 16 minutes gone it's six points a de here for the roosters a try to the debut on Mark nagazi with FJ Heritage the boy from bwood got the first point on the board from a great kick by Luke Ki and so I'll be interested when both sides bring on their subs on I think because you'll see this game's going to be played in a very Fier Pace I think when you see these young fresh bodies on I think that'll cause some Carnage out there strong charge from Kon he got away to go he's 9 me out from the line desperate defense from behind Watson switches it back on the inside ends up with Ki referee says play on May flicks it back to white white white dragged back by gray four me out from the line out the back now out Airi now lovely t ball there foru now n w needy six more tackle say the referee they come back the other way well they're looking so threatening every time they got the ball in hand he the roers but they've gone without the ball there and gray got absolutely whacked there was he tacking High referee said it was all all legal below the below the shoulders there SL play the ball says the referee it's a penalty penalty to S I thought he might have got a thought he might have ruled a penalty earlier there for a high tackle on J gray he gets just duck under those tackles and that's what happens these players just hit them over the top contact with the head but on that occasion they're penalizing for a slow play of the play of the ball there well it's not all smooth sailing for the roosters at the moment I know they lead by six0 but sou have had the penalty count 3 to one so far if you give sou City too much ball with penalties they will they can score enough points against you they come to the right with katagi Hawkins gr had to go and pick it up so the the attention was positive from South City but it didn't come about they come back up the center quick play of the ball hil's on the field for the first time Hawkins out the back down of Walker flings out wide he cuts out to Monroe he puts a kick in it bounces up nicely there and Watson gets back on the field of play and he got whacked around the neck area too he thought he should have got a penalty as well well with the attention with the consistency this year that should have been a penalty as well well the crowd are up at the moment you got the best boers in the game South City with possibly who are up there with the city roosters and it all comes out tonight striving for bragging rights doesn't matter the roosters are in the final South City want a victory K's looking for a 4020 here ah the it's had an ugly bounce and it's actually going to go out 25 out from the South City Line it will be a South City play the ball well instead of rolling on it did a sharp leg break so if you like to have your say leave in the chat halfway through the first half at six points to De The Roots is in front of South cdy don't forget we'll have all the we'll have all the finals matches excluding the grand finals so we'll have Friday Saturday and Sunday next week so if you press on that logo the borro corner of the video you'll know when the latest videos will come out pressing on that Bell will help as now we see another penalty hand on the football that's four penalties to one now you just keep inviting South City down end of the park they're going to accept the offer at some stage Luke kry was penalized a former rabido so at this stage it's this game could be anything at this point in time host played the ball he's key he's takes his first touches in a huff following up now to Philly the journeyman is right underneath the post this is the third tackle numbers to the right they come the left though Duncan was first receiver walk a fir a pass but it's been knocked on by rooster well they had to get a touch on it there or could could have been a try no risk football there by The Roosters offense Joey Manu stuck a hand out there yep J Maru didn't want to take any risk there he didn't back his um deut on Winger he probably hasn't learned to defend a lot in rugby Le he's learned to defend a lot in Union which is a whole different concept the attitude still the same but maybe the strategy is a little bit different so a repeat set here by the South City side they're going for a scrum play which ends up with mil that's got to be six more tackles well they just wanted to give a penalty away so they can reset themselves here regroup this rooster defense dunck they've had all the possession in recent times well they've got to confirm the points here south Sydney CAU Kai now katangi he's a big danger weapon up front out the back they go Hawkins they get it wide Walker gray try time coming gray is over and South Sydney Strike Back six points to four and the bar is up the S city flags are fly and it was the combination of Walker and gray that's got South City's first try of the night and all this possession has finally paid off and convert them into points nice decoy run there by Jacob host he attracted a couple Defenders and that just then made an easy option out the back there for Cody Walker well it was young it was sanded Smith who went in he turned charers out into the decoy Runner that just opened the space up there for G gray who's just too quick for him to score South's first try well as I said this is not going to be a Blow by any means South City are up for this one they only have to play any minutes of football there's a good enough crowd here tonight to watch this one Sid love to upset them and get the bragging rights and get that run cou cut back in their hands no Jack White this side tonight but they still got enough class out there to score enough points and they certainly love scoring that left hand side of the field Damen cook is down to take the goal kicking duties here tonight here he comes oh he's hooked it to the left part-time goal kicker it's a score ra six points to four we for early on well the roosters look hot and they're just looking like they're going they're going through the motions but I have to say the roosters have just got a bit ill discipline and South City have just applied some pressure and Walker and gray have combined well on that occasion and the big boys up front are denting them at this stage here at the Olympic Stadium it's a good crowd here tonight lovely conditions it's warming up for the finals as I mentioned we got finals games coming up as I said before if you press that subscribe and the bell you know the latest viewers are coming up we just got to wait to find out what the results are from all the games this round it's going to be big on on Sunday afternoon when the nights and Dolphins play that will decide who is in the eight but we're coming back here to this one as now T stun now with his headgear off with the gold eight on his jersey plays it inside Ro's territory it's the jersey that Ron CP played for sou City back in the day the 4th Immortal as now takes it up on the third that's a great set for sa they made 70 met on that play and Wazi took it magnificently he's probably had to do that many times in rugby and they've now penalized s because Tara Monro was in front of the kicker well that's a let off penalty there he'll learn a lot from that Tor manro he got some Speeders on that side of the Phil you got y Monroe and you got Mark no waga needi that would be that would be a great battle tonight that would be a great matchup so Wong's come on to the field he's made a good charge he's M now with the ball he advances upfield he's been fantastic this year to ro Off the Bench he's deserved the start tonight now what another man who's had a lot of impact this year Tesco well he's not succumbed by that hamstring problem ear in the game plays it now short of the 30 last tackle now there goes the bom G guys taking it well beat one the South City just trying to work from their own territory here this is Richie Kenna he's in the side and I Fletcher m is not playing in this game given a good opportunity a boy from Newcastle was let go by the knights this is Duncan now making handy ground there pulled out there by May and also Tupa and Watson cook just DS a d half he's done that so many time his career Daman cook he's so quick Off the Mark Walker with a kick here and he's got a bit too much juice on it it's out the fall so we're g to come back Roose is going to be inside South Sydney territory here or was he just no he's just inside Rooster's territory a bit of the Shaker that he knew straight away maybe had too much cocoa pops this morning well I've got to say that both teams haven't Dro in their tensity at all it's been a good contest yes I could say the roost is been ill disciplined but they really CC have really come up tonight last week they were very very poor South City but tonight they've really shown that they want to play six ball tackles here though you can't give roosters too much ball this end the ground the the best team in the competition scoring points here's the Desco trying to spear his way tackle like Ray Price used to do back in the 80s for param Manu long ball from Kiri gets out water par he's got the pace and he gets it down 10 points to four he's just too fast for him and the roosters extend their lead there was never going to be is never going to match him there Richie Kenneth for Pace or j a gay guy they just got on the line they came from a six to go M got it on the Kiri over the top pass jaob gag flying off his wing Richie kenon was still back and that just opened up the spaces the S we going need to come up together there or they need to stay back but the but Jer car came rushing up kenth stayed back and that just gave Junior P too much R to move he scored last time they played against South Sydney he's done again so two tries in two games against South Sydney now for junior ponga it was a beautiful cut out pass from Luke Ki SED up the situation beautifully and they went straight away to that left hand side they didn't they didn't mess around there the rooster side that there a s that can be threatened in this competition even without the likes of Walker as well so where the chairit sh minut into this first half Su out wide 76% goal Ki this year for Joseph he hooks it down to the left so the score remains 10 points to four two tries to one Ben H's got them up for this one Trent Robinson has also got them up for this one even the Superstar players who all went down injury last week and also Jer is out with suspension chupu is obviously injured as well again if you'd like to have your say leave in the chat as I said it doesn't matter with these two teams on the ladder they'll fight their way to Victory and get those bragging RS oh a good shot of the kickoff her there and key there on S Wong now now W Wy taking a run up on his 20 M Line This is theu white steeve roll forward here well Grant Atkins has done a good job with the whistle tonight I know he's play some penalties but he's he's trying to keep the game flowing here that's a good D from Watson gets it now inside South City territory last tackle it's been a good set for the roosters and can they follow up with the defense here gray has to come back but he's going to only start 10 me out from his own TR line so s have to do a lot of work this has been their Achilles Hill for the last couple of years they don't have the guys who can make those big yard just deep for their own territory and get their sets rolling they got to really need it tonight against this r pack he's key now takes it up towards he's own 40 m line here's a villy running forward who could also play at a dummy half last tackle now ah there's going to be a penalty here I think yeah it's a leg lift yeah it's a it's a leg lift so a p here to South cdy it's the only thing Trent Robinson W be happy with is the these penalties 5 to2 now in favor of South City and they've also made mareus two tonight the roosters over there in front of the scoreboard so they do have to clean that out before finals football although won't be much around so oh they're going to push it here to the middle of the field through cook down to Duncan no Enterprise on that play they just they just care about realate at this point in time so they got they've got Walker here lining up on the left hand side here Duck's got first receiver he's Walker got to run he's got to score without a hand upon him 10 points eight well we saw Luke Ki put on that final pass at the other end the ground and now the number six for the South City side just does it on his own he looks up off his left foot bases to till tuura it was a oneon-one it was great stuff there from Cody Walker instead of just just passing along the line heci to straighten the attack and just accelerate even at 34 years of age he's been compared to as a modern day Cliffy lions and that was just like Cliffy right there he just spr off the mark oh the rers for that is just going to keep going wide he looked up and he just sprit it and straightened it up and South City are looking to level the scores cook doesn't get that one it doesn't miss that one ten all so this is a great game of footy well thanks for your comment David well let's just wait and see as I just mentioned one to 12 yeah well bragging rights a big rival don't like each other that's an understatement we know that oh there's a knockoff for the kickoff it's gone backwards oh oh home ground Advantage there for South Sydney I think you lost that forward I think you got away with that one there Jacob host cook again from Dy half he's gone straight through he collided with his own player there Ty mro just had to get out of his get out of his way V we're talking about the young whipper staff I just right over the top of him Duncan play like a lot like cin bar tonight I reckon he's like a clone out there his last tackle Hawkins puts out the bomb it's been a great set for South Sydney they're certainly boyed on from that last try they really need to show this confidence so another a strong run there from dummy half by the roer side it's young V make his debut tonight Dallas v he's a big unit he's a Sherman tank they reckon he play he can play it Loose forward as well he's a he's a big human and they've got another penalty here this time it goes to the roosters so here he goes again well he's got his first touch out of the way and If he if he he can run over some of these players with Cate ease I'd be worried Daman cook out there they got some Big Boys in this rooster side Kiri get to that time they descended that time use him as a decoy question is how long will we last out there Manu he's just buzzing around the middle of the field there Ki Tesco again going to score junior pong gets himself a double well as I said before he loves scoring against South cityne well he's got he's got men inside he's got to thank you setting him up once again it's Kiri dco combined there beautifully this time the two this time Kenna and goo rushed up together but the pass was just too good for him they did make their tackles and paga goes into score nice attacking move there by The Roosters best team of the competition in attack this year and no wonder why they got so many threats not not just in the middle of the field but on both sides and they just do it so easily 14 points to 10 well it's a bit like it's a bit like a sea store at the moment one side scores the other one comes back pong has got a double in this first half three tries in two in two games there against the Rabbid o in recent times Tesco F enough scored their last game in round 27 last year so we got 90 seconds left on the clock this will be quite an important conversion six points in front will be very handy now he's hooking to the left he's just he's just losing his bounds when he gets to the T he just needs to go through the ball so the score remains 14 points to 10 we'll go through the first half we'll also go through all the other fixtures we' got fals fot been played in the New South Wales and queens and cups now and with well obviously queens and cup started last week in the so it's week two of finals now for them first week of finals for the DF WS cup also will'll go for the Tigers in the Paramount game the spoon ball to decide who got the spoon it's not a nice way to say about it but for those two teams it was like their own Grand Final the Grand Final to get that wooden spoon it's not great to C 16 fever oh that's an error but the referee's called it a penalty well Young no W need AI will have to learn to be careful with that he can't just put the ball on the ground it's not a rck you got to get up and actually Hogle the ball and play it properly fire well you wouldn't like to face him in a dark alley so the roosters are just advancing downfield here to end this first half Kiri again finds a hard ball Runner here in kryon will they thinkig about two-point field goal no they're got to run here Watson they're getting him too much Rune to run here the South SE defense we don't think we have much time remaining in this first half they're short of the 20 here Ki s Smith this are probably the last play of the half here they go south City end up with it and that will be the end of the first half so the roosters are in front by 14 points to 10 obviously this is it for Tom burges his final game here in the NRL can he's get his side with victory for Damen Cabe his final game as a South City player before heading off to the dragons next year Shan key playing is a hard for milestone for him and in front of the burrow it'd be a fittting way to also lift them all off after so many years in the NL as well K T up to the 30 cook out a dummy half he's had probably he's done so much work out of that out of that zone tonight he's really worked hard Philly so five short of halfway last tackle now we're just having a look here at the weather Great still great conditions for for there's no rated sight so who do you think will be the man of the match tonight what marins we've already seen some people put their comments in the chat we'd like to see more the chat still on as now we see no Wag N take it up strong R far d after the halfway they just stick short here T right over the top of well they're going to go out one eventually and they're going to pay the price here the South City L last tackle a big bom goes up and J Gray he's only a little there takes that magnificently B try to step his way outside the 20 this is this is a good run from dummy half as well from Mill up towards the 30 they just played at the back oh it's a good shot of Hawkins but he bounces off it there finally put down there by Watson and also was Far here they got the middle of the FI through Walker so they're try to go off the middle of that occasion but it didn't come off but I don't Mindy that against the roers they do have these big bodies that if you change to the point of the attack they might not be able to get their Crossing time and Pago scored two tries at that first half to fuse that ball magnificently as well kir try to go out the Blind and now running field for ponga again so lots of lots of work at this set for junior SU so roost just grafting their way inside South Terr lovely ball the inside for B but ke in dunker up to the task there last tackle now big boot there by Luke kry well they've aimed towards monro's Wing in this second half they think if they can jam him up he can't move and he did look real comfortable after that tackle he's still a bit he's still limping out there he hasn't got much on him he'd be he'd be 85 kilos ring wet I reckon he's hobbling out there Monroe cook tries to go from dmy half so sass will start like to start the second half by scoring first and get this root aside a bit nervous last tackle now Hawkins goes with a drop punt straight down the front there of P gets it now Smith now need AI gets out wide Manu he sees a bit of space beat one beats two Miracle Ball the inside but it's gone forward no referee's found a penalty and a little bit of spiders coming to just then wasn't much in it Z Smith s there the little halfback sure kev's got involved Shan K LS getting into the action well they try to attack from inside that 20 here that's nice stuff for the roosters they're going to attack from anywhere Mar was around the outside now the clim is at was tackled on the inside there without the football Joy Manu flanking down down that right side I don't really know what the penalty was for I think it's for a player actually coming over the top but he's still hobbling out there on that right leg so they got to find the Seline here the roosters as I said they're not winning the penalty count at the moment but they got to start from just inside their own territory here moel is on the field out for the chook sorry for the for the South City side puts the chook to the ground good run from V so the roost is at the just happy to play in the middle of the field here we saw that Ras mataz at the other end of the ground can they do it here inside South territory Smith Bal all there by build and also havil 25 me out for the South City Line May pops it up there to wats it he's just like a little rabbit he doesn't stop moving last tackle now Smith's got to run get a lovely ball away and t t goes in the score R scored first in the second half but sand and Smith just read that situation perfectly he didn't kick on the last he decided to run he looked up two ball in two hands and he attracted Cody Walker and he put the he put the ball on a platter there for satii to go in the score untouched he's off the Bulldogs next year but he love to put he'd love to score for the roosters at the moment eight points to 10 and could this be the start of something for the for the red white and blue well what a lot there from for the roosters number seven there he was looking to do something he looked to be doing something but he did something else and that's what it was all the s fans expected to go to the right they're all sliding sliding sliding and then straighten up and bang F to into a gap well s's been playing a lot of um new sou Wes cup he also was injured for a period of time played a lot of number nine this year bit a halfback but at this game is at half back because of S Walker he'll be probably there for the rest of the year and now a kick for this just for the start of the G he's not had some easy kicks su he struck that one nicely flags up 20 points to 10 well that shows on old head on a young man's shoulders there beautiful play the last he could have decided just to roll in the goal and get the line drop out but he said no I'm going to run the football I'm going to back myself and he show that confidence there that's what we want to see for this young halfback sandwalk is out of the side but someone comes in and does the job and comes with the right option on the last and sou C obviously this season is own didn't see that one coming now noaga neari now took it up and may Falls straight up the middle of the field wrestled there by host and also there katagi Del Sherman T it short of the halfway to Desco Ki cron he's got a bit of SP to the left he's gone stra the middle he's got to Des go on the inside he he finds that Skip and he puts it underneath the bar oh the roosters have have just gone back to back oh that was just too good there was no defense for South City but the roosters were too good too much class there and all start the middle of the FI want W half open it up there for dco he got out the back to KI tapped it on nice to the CR C could have gone wide here but he stepped back on the inside there was absolutely no defense there and to Desco who who who part of the movement fees the movement gr no chance there stopping oneon-one and the roosters are gone back to back in the second half CRI had standing here with his Line running this time he doesn't create the try this time he doesn't score the try he creates it against his former club and he's absolutely loving it steps back on the inside the man on the inside of assass never they just never came back they never covered up the hole and Su will make it 26 to 10 maybe they maybe they put they just gone into third gear now I'm loving all these comments coming through and now we got Liam l block on the field now for South Sydney I'm wondering Blake ste's going to come on for the roosters the port mccy sharks Jr he played a couple of games this year for the roosters we say young Dela come on the field he's made a little bit of an impact off the he giant he is just a Sherman W now tag it up to the 30 center of the field here Terrell M lovely ball out of kryon oh they're just toying with them now Watson gets it away now Su gets out waga he's spy away gets it on the inside and suly goes in again for the Chucks oh they're clocking at the moment 30 points to 10 oh this could be a blood barath coming here they've just waited this second half to open up beautiful offl for Terrell B and Kon again is involved in the action Watson was in there to support Sue just got it straight away to P couldn't get outside great he got a miracle ball back on the inside there and Joseph ausa SU goes in for another roosters try a great Try by The Roosters so many hands in that that's why they're a great football team and that is why they've been on top of the that's why they're in the top three teams this year if they can play fully like that they're going to cause so many problems to a lot of teams in the finals I don't care if you're playing South City or you're playing the Melbourne stor if you're attacking like that and getting balls away like that you're going to be causing so much trouble now we're going to go upstairs though they're going upstairs so are they going to make sure he is not big tackle no oh structur it could be against Luke Ki here well he's gone behind him now the question is is Luke is gr gone into tackle it's gone into tackle well they're going to go they're going to disallow this but the question was initially did was he a decoy Runner so would that wouldn't that negate the play that's what I'm wondering and I bet you that's what Toes has got to talk to Grant ains the referee well all that excitement end up turning to be nothing but but again did joh gray make an attempt to to take to tackle Luke Ki if if K was a decoy Runner well that was an anti Climax and sth got a penalty so South City could turn this back to 26 to4 here but don't wor as I said before that's a warning shop for South City in the second half they're ready to play here's the block now take it up for his team 15 out they're going to the left Walker puts a kick in rebounds off Rooster's feet and May's got it here for the city roosters Walkers upset with himself there very upset with himself that that didn't come off that kick it was the third tackle he's trying everything to get his team back in the game he doesn't want to lose gets this rooster side he knows the history he knows the hatred he knows how much Russell Crow would be just would be unhappy to see his team lose on the other side of be Nick pus for the roosters Uncle Nick crowd of just under 20,000 tonight as I said that's good that's a good enough crowd for where these two teams are on the ladder I wouldn't be surprised it would have been up to about 40 FS that was played at the city football stadium but unfortunately where where these two two teams are that's probably a decent crowd Lenny's come back on the field now here for the roosters let see how much impact he makes with his second s here he's already made one tackle he's going to make another and we got another penalty offside well there's still plenty of time left here for South City when they score one they always score one straight afterwards that's the that's the threat you got with sou City we saw it in the first half you give up too much ball they turn it into points to K tagy now starts this new set off well South City have had twice amount of ball inside the position 20 so that's the problem out wide from cook to Walker Bill coming again against the great pops it out the back Hawkins straight of the wedding on PG and Junior pger gets tackled outside his 20 well that was a little bit of a let off there s will building up to something no W Nei that's a great strong run in the middle of the field there that was s wonger he's blank deeps on the field so the reason used all the interchanges now the port mccy boy plays at 10 me inside sou territory what's it down for ding half oh he couldn't find couldn't find some space on that occasion this is tackle five now puts up the high kick towards the corner Monro has a jug and he gets it on the rebound but the referee is going to pull a penalty here for an escort and Marky Mark is down as well he's come down with a sudden fun he probably doesn't know about the rules of of the escort yeah it was an escort penalty well that was a solid hit there it was T oh it was Ty Mill who's coming across it might be a disruptive penalty well he's felt the highs and he's felt the lows there mark no waga Nei feel a little bit winded after that contact with [ __ ] Mill he went up like super bad there but he feels a little bit more like a man who's had a too much be after long P craw anyway the rers have got it there through steep couple me out from the light Del The Roosters they not going to be denied now lovely ball there from TCO they won't take that one off them 30 points to 10 in five of the roosters it was just too classy there beautiful offload they just set it up nicely here sand and Smith once again he isolated I think Cody Walker again it was toid who were going to a hole yep it's Cody it's Cody Walker and Jacob host and on he had his arms free they're like the Statue of Liberty and he got on with skipper score 30 points to 10 well with S effect they've come up with in defense the rooster come up with something else they're just too good of a side at the moment the roosters where then this sort of mood you might as well put up the white flag and I think South is starting to do that 40 tries for the year for the for the rooster Skipper you lost the new sou Wes Captain C was and also didn't play in Origins two and three but he's done a terrific roll at the roosters this year just been focused on Club level and it's prove a difference to this rooster side Here Comes su he draw it to the left bit like hitting in the rough from from the T So score line is 30 points to 10 in favor this rooster side Michael this score it just keeps changing for you every time you put an update in the rers just keep scoring more points 30 points to 10 the roers are just taking just offl the ball way too much at the m and the South City side just can't handle it yeah 13 to4 and now the GOL for the short kick off to try to get the ball back and the roosters have got it so just repeating the earlier night score in what we call the SPO ball I know that's a very hard name to harsh name to to call it but the Paramount Hills Fu the tigers by 60 points to 26 at Campell town so the Tigers have got the Su back to back it's going to be a long build back there in Tiger land but also in Paramount land as well that's a good strong R for Wong short of the sou 30 car to the blind he got hit heavily there humbled but he got his he got back up and C now play on the 20 M line K's got the ball now combining with s Smith Tesco shrugs out of one goes past another gets on the inside but that pass has to be forward well he tried he tried to do the opposite de James adesco he tried to give it on the T to get his second but he got he just got all his bearings wrong well a one1 Miss there by mil two he must have been offside he had to be he must have been offside for the play the ball I think that's what the South City players are saying he had to be offside and that was a deliberate offside pass as well if we if we were playing in the 80s that's a penalty it's a penalty to South Sydney I'd love to see referees pull up deliberate offside passes more often and that was one of them T was offside he was never he was never behind at the to play the ball I'm surprised that gr Ain didn't pull him up anyway South have the ball and cook now try to make a run oh Key's put it down it's not a happy 100th game for him he has this in his game Sean Key he needs to clean it up he has a bit of this he does do a bit of dropsies and the barish has gone very quiet in recent times so another scrub here to The Roosters so burges is going to come back on for probably his last appearance in the South City jumper he B with his twin brother George and his and his brothers Luke and Sam as well it'll be emotional time for him here's the ball for the roosters they go along the line this time out of su he's pulled down just outside the South City 20 on the first tackle well what's the play to get themselves another try here the roosters it goes to KI now they do well who hasn't scored a try for the roosters this year that's who they'll be aiming towards sandon Smith got to run Watson's in support Watson oh he near got there Gran cook holding him up right underneath the post back to KI to Desco stabs the ball in the foot try it's free tries AA he's hurt himself in the process but he's going to get three tries 34 to 10 is the score well there's no celebrations here for junior ponga I hope he hasn't done an ACL or an MCL there when he scored the try but once again kir could with the Desco puts it off the boot and he won the race of the ball that PG to score even when there was two South City players around the football well actually it was just ja G guy yes he's grounded so that's confirmed there by Adam G in the bunker well it's been a tri Fest in the second half for The rosters you've love tries well you've been enjoying the second half here on simply Rugby League especially if you're a CHS fan and Pog is going to go to the sideline I think well I'm interest well sack doer clay hasn't come on the field yet for the roosters so mining when he comes into the game pong is just leaping back now he's actually staying on the field here they're just making sure that they want know what the extent of this injury is they're just doing an assessment the physia is out there doctors out there so oh he's landed hard on the ground there with that right knee I don't think it's not a I I don't know he might have got a cork or something or that need to need contact suly from the sideline he hasn't had good up the boot this D Struck it well and he's got the flags up so 36 points to 10 is the score line here at Stadium Australia so we' got some big games coming up this weekend so George want to play camera tomorrow so we'll show you the ladder right now so that's where they are 10th and 11th and eth versus 9th Knights to play the Dolphins the last game of the hway game Sunday afternoon 4:00 by 6:05 we'll know who's in the top eight so we've got some big games tomorrow dragons will play Rays at 300 p.m. they go for the short kickoff here south it's been knocked on backwards by rooster it's then being knocked on then by South forward the referees had to pulled up and we're going to have a scrub so so George aara and oh they're going for a captain's challenge here so we will show you the ladder very very shortly but we're just going up to I think it's South City's actually gone up for the challenge so let's have a look well it's come off it's come off Monro first now is there a South City player is burges offside when he touches it no it's come off then to Desco and then it's yeah well or have they cleared up the Monro one first yeah they've cleaned up Monroe Tesco's lost at Ford and then bures then yeah so then touch Burg so that's going to go forward so this should be a scrub feeders this should be a ball to South City yep and that's what they pulled up so so let's just go back to that ladder so we got so George are playing camra at cogra tomorrow 300 p.m. obviously that will get them to 30 points but because of these team's worse forward against it's not going to help them so so you could see that the forign against is very poor s c on the attack inside the roost 20 will come back to the ladder very shortly Cooks as a running forward now Hawkin switches back on the inside to the experience at Cody Walker good strong tackle there by steep Burgess picked up and dumped fa well to to Hawkins long ball to Kenna for the line Kenna no way he's not going to get there held up there by by the two roosters halves tackle five says Atkins cook Walker they're got to run are they he put the kick and I think H is offside so he's had to pull himself out of the play and Mark now Ney gets them back in the field of play so just going back to the latter so dragons in the camber Raiders so if the if one of those teams win tomorrow they'll obviously they'll go to 30 points but then because of the for against because they're on minuses that it's decided out the Dolphins and Newcastle and whoever wins that game will then be the eth team so that will finalize the eight so it's all on the line really for that nights Dolphins game tomorrow obviously draw there can be draws but I can't see any draws really out of those two games I think there'll be a victory so the roers now just getting them are getting a kick outside their own half on the last tackle gr just let the ball bounce going across field oh he got whacked High there by sea [ __ ] and just repeat we will have a full match replay and match High to this game match H will be out tonight full match replay will be out tomorrow so we've already got the full match replay match highlights of last night's game between the Brisbane bronos in the melbour stor on my channel so pressing that logo at the bottom right corner of your video and then pressing on that Bell will give you the latest updates as well don't forget we've also got PS on my YouTube channel and also we've got our footy tips and other content on the socials as well so Mal will play it far short of halfway for South cityne Hawkins float it downfield went downfield there like a zeppelin to Desco charging back so I'd say now that trp Robert will be looking to rest some of his players before next next starting the finals next week will they win tonight we'll get them to second position at the moment we'll just have a quick look at the ladder again so they are at minus 267 so there you go 180 compared to 267 at the moment so the roost have lost the ball here so Tom burges has got the football kagy lumbering up into the defensive line the rooster defensive line Watson's having a rest so he's off the field Z Zack doer Clay is on the field so there's the there's my question answered before when do clay coming on the field Walker PL toys with him gray Gray's got through get it out wide mro jugles gets it inside and M gets another South Sydney try now have they confirmed it here no I think you might have lost it that's what Grant Atkins FS so no try being award on the field here by Grant Ain he reords he's lost it so that's have a look it was a nice play out here nothing wrong with the decoy Runner there gray just go straight well that's what they're going to check is the abstraction but I don't think there's any problems I think it's the Defenders fault here I think the defend is gone for him I think this is a defensive error here I think that's a defensive error they're going to call it back it's no try yeah they're going to call that one back too I still think that sand Smith went in for the defender there I think s should be disappointed with that one so that's a penalty here to the roosters for an abstraction so I appreciate all the chat tonight and throughout the whole season as I said we'll be here throughout the finals now at the moment I can't give you the previews for that because we don't know actually when the games are on and who who we playing so we know that melbour will be first we know that the roosters at this stage of second but pen have to play the goal Coast tomorrow so we have to really decide those two t those three teams who get a Hope who gets have a ho FAL so the roers have got the ball now and K's got it down to kryon who can't get his way through he's had a very strong gear as anus kryon all those issues off the field and he's back playing footy this year and he's free of all that trouble he had last year six more tackles down here to The Roosters so nafu white who started this game is back on and he's going to play it 3 me out from the line that's going six more tackles that's a very slight play of the ball doer Clay is trying to play it that's there's no Avant from that that's got to be a penalty here to The Roosters gray went off with the prize but he's going to have to come back yeah penalty there the penalty there to the roosters just got to keep scoring try surely I wouldn't worry about the forward against well maybe you do so the Rus what more tries doer CL a dummy half rushing defense there by South SE a little bubble there but the referee said it was okay well they all went straight to it said surely lost the football gr a has let that go Smith just shovels it on there to Blake Ste well he was running downhill there Smith Ki gets it down to kryon what a game he's had tonight Docker clay K speno couldn't get out the other side last tackle now docker clay they got all confused at the roosters tuid knocked it back Kieran a Crossfield kick here they go goes over everyone's head and monro's away we saw him do it last week and he's GNA do it again to Monro he's going to go the length of the field to score they won't deny this time they got to die before Ty Monro ranks the length of the field to get sou in's third try he is so quick this boy the boy from from the botney Rams originally born in morine well once he got this football he put the afterburners on there was no one in Koy of him M was trying his best but all he could do was just cut his angle down to make the kick hard for Damen cook it wasn't a bad kick here by Luke K but unfortunately no NE was he missed his side but trying to tap it back and it just too Monro picked up the crumbs and went away with it and the youngster gets himself another NRL try in a side that's going to be heavily defeated tonight and won't return the wrong cot cup 36 to 14 is the score well they as I just said before they'll denied a try earlier that I think should have been a try PG's going up the Tuttle and I'm talking about Junior POG for the roosters so all your Newcastle fans don't fall don't be shock when I just said that so he's liming up the ttle here junior P for the roosters I don't need more injuries who was filling in for Daniel tuper tonight a cook well what one of his last memories for the South City side is kicking a goal 36 points to 16 so as I said before we got finals footy coming up we know that penri will be playing we'll have a home final The Roosters at this stage a third on the ladder we'll go back to the ladder at this stage well they'll be second at the moment because of the differential but ped as I said have to play the go Coast tomorrow night so all the all PFF need to do is actually win and they'll go back to Second and so we at least then know who will be first second and third and it's only the coral s sharks at man the G on De side the four because obviously the Bulldogs and cowys have to play each other as well but the thing is I don't think they get in the four because of their four differential so one two three and four will probably be decided at least on Sunday as I go wide in South City to down to build so one two three and four will be now decided so the question will be 5 six seven and eight so after tomorrow night we'll decide one two 3 and4 it'll be 56 and 7even and 8 by Sunday at 6:05 p.m. as Burgess a nice touchdown alley this young upcoming front row for the South City side last tackle now here for the Buddies they go for a little kick down the blind there as I said a bit of a reshuffle at wide that's that's got to be a penalty he was tackled then put and then put out the sideline no the referee said it was all momentum well that was interesting I thought he was held and then he dragged him over the sideline as a second effort he's absolutely stunn there so shaking his head he can't believe it anyway s going to get the ball back have a chance to go back to back here well they want to get the they want to get the bar cheering here at the end of this game 36- 16 is the score Miley plays the ball cook Walker gets out wide a mill when we saw last week what param what the dragons really did to param there at West City Stadium then we pull their pants down biggest a scored 40 points and still lost the game host Mari gets it on oh the big Fell's going to score his final game oh that'll be a b remember George Burger sorry Tom Burger scores well I did say he's twin bra well Tom's got it over the line he couldn't believe he R he actually charged from about 20 M out he was like an old bulldog he just charged the football and he put it right next to the Post back to back go the Buddies 36 to 20 now 249 games for the buddies and he gets himself a try in his last game charged on the that I don't know if the if the roosters gave him that try nefu white was not watching he didn't know what was going on and the big fell crashes over next to the post I don't think Trent Rob will be happy with this last couple of minutes for the roosters and now they give the big F chance to kick for goal and he's just G over the crossbar and right between the post 36 points to 22 was one of the ugliest kick you'll ever see well we saw Kieran Ford kick it out of the crossbar one day I think was here at this ground he just got over the crossbar and through well unfort for those poor touch judges they can't remove that out of their memories how bad that kick was but it's 36 to 22 so the bunny's going again here we've got a really interesting G of rugby league coming up and with no South Sydney have done it against the roosters at the city football stadium Adam Reynolds scored on that night and that was remarkable Bill M we know that the South City team won't die down they fight to the end Burg Just J be cocka hoop after scoring a try kicking a goal as well his first ever goal in the NRL and maybe his career short ball there from Walker ay flung It Wide to Ker put down short of halfway they just got to throw this ball around sou City Val right in his face last tackle now Walker with a kick Cook's into the space cook needs a support still G Damien cook he falls over though that'll be the change over a have a small effort to disc go as well he wasn't going to let his former New southw an Australian teammate go over the line and Marky Mark Mark no Wag N wasi will played on the 30 m line what a name I'm gonna that is a now that's a name that's hard to pronounce K's going to come off the field in the for of R Rooster and now rooster he's going to have a rest even the South City fans are applauding him play in that 2014 Grand Final there with Adam Reynolds on that night at in the number six jersey great swap the ship there from the burrow to Desco so that's his final home and away game here at the stadium Australia for also Luke Ki before he ends off to the Super League next year there goes the bomb now from Sand Smith Maro trying to take it from his 10 meter line well I think they just stuffed at at least a some sort of chance of a victory for South because if you've got to stop the first one that's the key and their defense just lifted there for an occasion well I've got to say for S they've improved a lot in the second half but at least at the end of the second half cook Hawkins kagi beautiful head ker G got going to put the after burners on he puts a kick in here comes J gray he gets the bounce of the ball he sprit away and he gets himself a double well the South City side have just turned around inside some meditating football here in this second half 36 to 26 well it's TR to play some footy they they don't have to worry about next week nice hands here for KAG and Ken Lov the kick on the inside from gay guy back up supporters this little whip of J gr and he goes in to score his second try of the night he's always supporting around the football J GR he's not really I don't think he's a ball player yet he's more just a support player he's never going to let you down well 36 to 28 here Hawkins is taking over the goal kicking so we've got an interesting ball game here eight point margin is it all too late here for the bunnies well as I said the Rong cou cup is currently with the roosters so they've just they've just got themselves into first gear here the roosters and South City just left themselves a little bit of overdrive here so the roosters are going to kick here will s will probably try to go the Le for the field on this occasion a young v c out that ugly here Tom burges came from The Back Fence and the youngsters absolutely in Disneyland this a horrible sight for the young Sherman tank Dallas salv is in massive trouble that's a horrible sight to see the playing his final guy just try to run over the top he got that horribly wrong oh it was just it was it was all accidental it was an accidental head to the elbow and he's going to be off for the rest of the game so hi Will so we're going to have another man coming off the bench well his debut is not going to be one to Remember at the end at least he had a strong impact for close the game but just not for the last 90 seconds hi for the youngster he's an absolute he's a baby giant all all these friends family supporters are there he's just going to have an early rest maybe an early hot shower well Trent Robinson will not be happy with the last part of the second half this is not a good lead up to finals he'd be happy for about the first 60 minutes but probably not the last probably for not the last 20 I'd say host heading up towards his 30 cook Hawkins K tuy great out wide a go guy but that was a flat pass that one there no room to go there and he had to come back in field Hawkins are up in a big defensive line David Mal I thought I think the time's going to beat them here South City but they're going to push it right to the end cook Walker with a little D kick here for Monro in the waiting arms of Joey Manu and that should SE that should stop that comeback and the roosters will go up to the second place of the competition ladder and they're going to get the braging right in this one once again they've won twice in 2024 big hit there on cron there from Todd burges a bit of a smile his face David Cook was involved as well he's having a bit of a laugh there Angus Kon because he knows what's happening there bit of a grin there from Tom verges he knows so they're going to take the tap and it's all over the roosters have retied the Rong cou cup and they're going to get the braging rights once again 36 to 28 here at St stri e
