The Sydney Roosters are proud to announce the line-up for the Round 24 clash with the Dolphins to be played at Allianz Stadium this Saturday evening.

To commemorate the monumental impact Arthur Beetson had on rugby league, the Roosters and Dolphins will play for the second Artie Legacy Medal, to be awarded to the Player of the Match from Saturday’s game.

This week, the Roosters will also wear the 2023 Indigenous Round Jersey, which pays tribute to Beetson’s journey as an Aboriginal man and a rugby league legend, proudly designed by his niece Bianca.

Trent Robinson has listed a similar line-up to the team that overcame the Sea Eagles at the Sydney Cricket Ground last Thursday evening to retain the Gotcha4Life Cup, with one change on the bench.

A week after celebrating his involvement in the Club’s 2013 Premiership campaign, Dylan Napa will don the Red, White and Blue for the first time since 2018, coming onto the interchange to replace Nathan Brown.

James Tedesco will Captain the side from fullback again this week, with Daniel Tupou and Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii on the wings and Billy Smith and Joseph Manu in the centres.

Manu: 'I'm Still Trying To Get Better'

Luke Keary will line-up alongside Drew Hutchison for his 200th NRL Game in the halves this week, while Jared Waerea-Hargreaves, Brandon Smith and Lindsay Collins have been named in the front row.

Siua Wong has been retained in the second row while Egan Butcher continues to progress through the Club’s return to play protocols after sustaining a concussion in Round 22. Nat Butcher and Victor Radley complete the starting line-up in the back row.

Sandon Smith, Terrell May, Fletcher Baker and Napa make up the interchange bench with Fetalaiga Pauga, Elie El-Zakhem, Jake Turpin, Zach Dockar-Clay and Corey Allan on the extended bench.
