The Sydney Roosters junior representative teams have all qualified for the finals, with three of them making the Top 4.
The S.G.
Ball team secured a Top 4 spot by defeating the New Zealand Warriors 32-16 in Auckland.
Despite injuries to key players in the second half, the Roosters were able to maintain their lead and prevent the Warriors from getting within 12 points of their score.
Prop Itulu Seve scored two tries while James Finegan stood out as one of the best players on the field.
The Roosters' strong prop rotation and creative back row were key factors in their success.
However, injuries to players like Lachlan Dooner and William Pappas are a concern as the team heads into the finals without first choice full back Rex Bassingthwaite and captain and hooker Jaxson Allen.
Despite these challenges, the Roosters have put themselves in a good position to compete for a premiership in 2025.
