In a dominant display, the Sydney Roosters secured a convincing 30-8 victory over the Gold Coast Titans at Cbus Super Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
The Roosters' triumph further solidified their position at the top of the ladder in the NRL competition.
Tarryn Aiken, the talented five-eighth for the Roosters, once again showcased her skills and influence on the game.
Aiken not only scored a try but also played a pivotal role in setting up two more tries for her team.
Her exceptional performance included an impressive 22 runs, accumulating a total of 118 metres gained.
Aiken's ability to break through three tackles effectively dismantled the Titans' defense, leaving them struggling to contain her impact.
The young forward, Otesa Pule, made her presence felt during her 55-minute stint on the field.
Pule demonstrated her strength and determination by scoring a try and running for an impressive 102 metres.
What made her performance even more remarkable was that 37 of those metres were gained after initial contact with the opposition.
Pule, who also represents the Kiwi Ferns, showcased her versatility by making 17 tackles, proving her worth not only in attack but also in her hard-hitting defensive efforts.
The Roosters' victory was a testament to the team's overall performance and ability to execute their game plan effectively.
Their dominance in both attack and defense was evident throughout the match, as they outclassed the Titans in all aspects of the game.
The win not only solidifies their position at the top of the ladder but also sends a strong message to the other teams in the competition that the Roosters are a force to be reckoned with.
With Round 5 now in the books, the Roosters will look to build upon their success and maintain their winning momentum as they continue their campaign in the NRL competition.
With players like Tarryn Aiken and Otesa Pule making significant contributions, the Roosters will undoubtedly be a team to watch in the coming weeks.
