Trent Robinson has reduced the squad to 19 players ahead of the Roosters' Round 23 clash with the Manly Warringah Sea Eagles at the Sydney Cricket Ground.

Corey Allan, Jake Turpin and Dylan Napa come out of the side this week. Fetalaiga Pauga will be the 18th player in jersey no.21, with Elie El-Zakhem the remaining reserve. There have been no changes made to the remainder of the squad.

The Roosters and Sea Eagles will be playing for the Gotcha4Life Cup tomorrow evening, to raise funds and awareness about the importance of building mental fitness.

All 22 player-issued jerseys from each squad will be auctioned off following the match, with the proceeds going to the Gotcha4Life Foundation.

The Roosters will also be celebrating the 10-year anniversary of the Club's 13th Premiership tomorrow evening and Daniel Tupou will equal Mitchell Pearce as the sixth most-capped Rooster on 238 first-grade games when he takes to the field.

The final line-up will be confirmed one-hour prior to kick-off tomorrow at 6:50pm.
