Report: Roosters and Rabbitohs Scrap for Sydney Bragging Rights - Contains Spoilers
The household names of the Sydney Roosters were looking for a first win of the season as they looked to take the points of neighbours, the Rabbitohs, in a tantalising third round match up at the Bankwest Stadium in western Sydney.
There is no love lost between the Roosters and the Rabbitohs and with a shortened season the first meeting of the year between these two sides had a even greater meaning with even more at stake.
A big pre-match talking point was the absence of Roosters star forward Siosiua Taukeiaho after he failed to recover from injury. The Rabbitohs were without their stand-off Cody Walker who is serving a suspension after his club failed to inform the NRL of his involvement in an off-field incident back in December.
