NRLW Finals: Roosters remain bullish despite injury setbacks
As the Roosters anxiously wait for the results of Isabelle Kelly's elbow scans, the team is bracing themselves for a potential blow ahead of their upcoming semi-final clash against the Knights.
With the possibility of being without three key players, including the influential skipper Isabelle Kelly, the Roosters are facing a challenging situation as they gear up for a crucial match.
Vice-captain Olivia Kernick expressed confidence in her team's ability to overcome adversity and rise to the occasion, even in the absence of their star players.
Kelly's suspected dislocated elbow suffered during a recent match against the Eels has cast a shadow over the Roosters' finals campaign, but Kernick is adamant that the team will rally together and give their all on the field.
Despite the setback, the Roosters are determined to put up a strong fight against the Knights in what promises to be an intense showdown.
Drawing on their collective resilience and mental fortitude, the Roosters are prepared to face whatever challenges come their way, whether it be injuries, setbacks, or tough opposition.
In a season marred by injuries, the Roosters have already endured losses to key players such as Corban Baxter and Shawden Burton, making the road to the finals a bumpy one.
With stars like Jess Sergis and Tarryn Aiken also facing race against time to recover from their respective injuries, the Roosters are well aware of the hurdles that lie ahead.
But in true rugby league spirit, the Roosters are ready to tackle whatever obstacles come their way as they strive to achieve success in the finals.
With a never-say-die attitude and a strong sense of camaraderie, the Roosters are aiming to prove that they can triumph against the odds and emerge victorious in the finals series.
