THE PREDICTION
Sydney Roosters have made a brilliant start to the campaign having amassed 86 points thanks to another big win last week. They proved to be far too good for Wests Tigers but in truth, the Roosters have not been given a real test yet so it will be interesting to see how they cope against a dangerous South Sydney Rabbitohs side. The rivals will do battle at ANZ Stadium in what promises to be a superb contest and the Tricolours will be eager to put last year’s horror show behind them after they were annihilated 60-8 in their last meeting. Trent Robinson’s side will have revenge on their mind and while this one could go either way, they can punish Souths who have failed to respect the ball sufficiently in their opening two clashes of the campaign.
