‘Key man’ revealed as Roosters eye impossible task
The Roosters have been ravaged by injury in the weeks leading up to the finals.
Missing a stack of their leading men, one star will have to stand up if the Roosters are to go deep.
He made The Mole’s team of the week. Scroll on to find out who he and the other 12 are.
1. James Tedesco (Roosters)
Warmed up for yet another finals campaign with two tries, two try assists, two line breaks and over 220 run metres as the depleted Roosters outclassed arch rivals South Sydney on Friday night.
2. Will Warbrick (Storm)
Yes, it was only the Broncos, but wow! Three tries and 300 running metres for the guy who has become the most feared winger in the NRL.
3. Kayal Iro (Sharks)
This has been a breakout season for Kayal Iro, who continued to improve in the Sharks’ big win at Manly on Sunday, picking up a try assist and 150 run metres
4. Herbie Farnworth (Dolphins)
Finished a great debut season with the Phins on a high note, running for over 250 metres in the brave loss at Newcastle.
5. Brian To’o (Panthers)
On a night where his teammates struggled against the Titans, the powerhouse winger came up with some huge effort plays and scored a determined try on top of 200 metres.
6. Luke Keary (Roosters)
With star playmaker Sam Walker missing, took over the job and led the team to victory over Souths with two try assists. Could be the Roosters’ key man in his last finals series.
