2016 Round 9 – Roosters vs Knights

There has been a lot of talk around the Roosters these last few weeks and I think they will be the team to watch this weekend when they come up against the Knights on Saturday.
 
I think that with the return of Mitchell Pearce and Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, the team will have the direction and aggression that they have lacked all season and that will be what it takes for them to bounce back from so many losses. Although two men can’t change the world, the Roosters have been crying out to have these two back on the field so it will be interesting to see if they make a difference.
 
The Knights on the other hand are building for the future with all the youngsters they have coming through the ranks. Even though that won’t help much this week, I think they will be ones to watch in 2017.
