Jersey Flegg Team List: Cleary back to face Roosters

Halfback Jett Cleary returns from a one-week lay-off to boost the NZ Warriors for their third-round Jersey Flegg Cup (under-21) clash against the Sydney Roosters at Navigation Homes Stadium in Pukekohe on Saturday (12.00pm kick-off).

Cleary was unavailable last week as he followed concussion protocols following a head knock in the club's first-round loss to Canberra.

He resumes his combination this week with fellow former Penrith junior Luke Hanson as the Warriors aim for their first win of the season.

After a tough defeat against Canberra, the Warriors showed great improvement against Manly last Saturday before narrowly losing 28-32.

The Roosters are also hunting for their first victory of the season after falling 20-28 to North Sydney and 16-46 to Penrith.
