Friday Night Footy | Warriors v Roosters, 2018

For this week's edition of Friday Night Footy and in light of this being the week we were intended to play the New Zealand Warriors, here's a look at a memorable victory on enemy soil from 2018.

It was a match that two major ties attached, while it was Indigenous Round and the Roosters were showing their respect with a brilliant Arthur Beetson inspired jersey, James Tedesco was also featuring in his 100th NRL match. 

There was plenty of emotion in the pre-match celebrations, which led to a physical beginning to the match.

The Roosters were on their A game though, and would go on to notch one of their most clinical victories of the 2018 season.
