Sydney Roosters vs Canberra Raiders
Kick-off: Friday, February 18, 6pm (AEDT)
Venue: Leichhardt Oval, Leichhardt
Final team news
The Raiders have lost Sam Williams and Matt Frawley from their team after Williams returned a positive COVID test and Frawley has been his roommate. Charnze Nichkoll-Klokstad will start in the halves and Adam Trevilyan at hooker. Both players were originally named on the bench. Ata Mariota and Harry Rushton are also out, leaving the Raiders with just five players on the bench for their opening trial, meaning big minutes will be on the way for some of their stars.
