The Last Time We Met the Gold Coast Titans was in a unique battle at Cbus Super Stadium where the Sydney Roosters fielded a young new-look squad, and the youngsters certainly stole the show.
Sean O'Sullivan, Paul Momirovski and Poasa Faamausili were all on debut for the Club and all three scored tries to help the Roosters to a 20-12 win over the Titans on enemy ground.
