This week's Game In Focus goes back to Round 6, where the Roosters had a rematch with the South-Sydney Rabbitohs on enemy ground.

After a tough start to the season for the Roosters, a massive 80-minute performance from Dylan Napa in the forwards set the platform for a gritty win to the Tricolours. 

Daniel Tupou and Aidan Guerra scored in the first half, and Dylan Napa topped off his big night out with a try in the second half.

DYLAN NAPA

Running metres: 141 | Tries: 1 | Tackles: 51 

An outstanding effort from the big man put his side on the front foot.

He played 80 minutes and never stopped giving it his all.

JAKE FRIEND

Line break: 1 | Try assist: 1 | Tackles: 60

The Captain led by example for his side, with his massive run at the start of the game setting up the opening try. 

Leading the game in tackles, Friend was one of the best on field. 

AIDAN GUERRA

Running metres: 122 | Tries: 1 | Tackles: 37 | Line break: 1 

Aidan Guerra was big in attack and defence, playing his best game of the season so far.

JACKSON HASTINGS

Goals: 2/3 | Try assists: 2 | Field Goal: 1

Jackson Hastings was cool under pressure for his side in the win.

His short kicking game was impressive, setting up both Dylan Napa and Daniel Tupou for tries on the night.

When the game was too close for comfort, he put his side beyond two converted tries with a field goal in the closing minutes.
