Joey Manu will once again play at five-eighth for the Roosters after he was moved from the centres ahead of last week’s Anzac Day clash against the Dragons.
“I know that they trained well during the week, some of it came out on Tuesday, but I know that each week that goes past, they’re going to get better at their roles,” Roosters coach Trent Robinson said this week.
“He’s naturally a ball runner, he’s a ball player. He’s got a unique set of instincts as well, so I’m looking forward to getting him out there again at No 6.”
Meanwhile, fullback Taine Tuaupiki has been ruled out of the Warriors after sustaining an ankle injury.
Kick-off at Mt Smart Stadium is scheduled for 2pm AEST.
