The Sydney Roosters are proud to announce the line-up for their inaugural clash with the North Queensland Cowboys at Netstrata Jubilee Stadium.

Set for a 6:00pm kick-off, Saturday’s fixture marks the final round of the 2023 regular season, with a win securing the Roosters a top-two finish and home Semi Final next week.

Coach John Strange has made a number of changes to the line-up, most notably naming Tyler Bentley and Millicent Scutt to make their debuts.

Scutt, who has been an NRLW strength and conditioning coach at the Roosters since 2021, joins the squad as an injury replacement player for Shawden Burton.

Vice-captain Corban Baxter will again don the no.1 jersey, with Bentley and Brydie Parker on the wings. Jayme Fressard and Isabelle Kelly make up the centres, as Jessica Sergis recovers from finger surgery.

Tarryn Aiken and Jocelyn Kelleher continue their combination in the halves, while Millie Boyle is set to return in the front row alongside Keeley Davis and Teuila Fotu-Moala.

The back-row is unchanged, with Otesa Pule and Olivia Kernick named in the second row and Keilee Joseph rounding out the starting side at lock.

Grace Hamilton, Mya Hill-Moana and Joeli Morris join Scutt on the interchange bench, while Pani Hopoate, Mia Wood, Lily Rogan, Lexi Kiriwi and Amelia Pasikala complete the line-up on the extended bench.

Secure your seats and cheer on the Roosters from Kogarah!
