In the final round of the regular season, Trent Robinson, the coach of the Roosters, has made a crucial decision in finalizing his side to face off against the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Accor Stadium tonight.
According to the report from roosters.com.au titled "NRL Late Mail: Round 27 vs Rabbitohs," there has been one change made to the line-up since the 24-hour update yesterday.
Egan Butcher has been given the opportunity to start in the front row, displacing Fletcher Baker, who will now be coming off the interchange bench.
Additionally, Drew Hutchison has been named as the 18th player for the Roosters, wearing jersey number 20.
This strategic move by Robinson may have been influenced by the team's recent performances and the strengths and weaknesses of their opponents.
With the regular season coming to an end, this match holds significant importance for both teams in securing their position in the finals.
The Roosters will be hoping that this change in the line-up will provide them with the necessary edge to overcome the Rabbitohs and finish the regular season on a high note.
