With less than an hour until we take to the turf for our first game at the Auckland Nines, Head Coach Trent Robinson has nailed down the team that will take to the field. 

Connor Watson gets the nod to start at the back, while Daniel Tupou, Dale Copley and Joseph Manu will work on the edges. 

Mitchell Aubusson, Ryan Matterson and Zane Tetevano will do the work up front, with new Roosters recruit Paul Carter manning the dummy-half duties.
