Sydney Roosters vs Brisbane Broncos Preview
The Roosters returned to their brilliant best last week with a huge win over the Tigers and they’ll be afforded every opportunity to further cement themselves in the top four against the struggling Broncos on Friday night.
Sydney are obviously a much better side with the Morris twins on the field and it is scary to think the Chooks may receive an added boost over the coming weeks with Daniel Tupou and Boyd Cordner set to return.
The Broncos, on the other hand, have bigger issues than just ins and outs on their mind.
Anthony Seibold’s $1 million offer to quit as head coach is yet another off-field distraction the club simply doesn’t need, especially with Anthony Milford pulling up with a hamstring injury following last week’s loss to the Dragons.
It’s safe to say this would be one of the upsets of the season if the Broncos were to win, but it’s nearly impossible to see that happening.
Brisbane was infamously pummelled 59-0 when they met the Roosters back in Round 4, and with everything going on away from the field, it’s hard to see this one going any other way.
