Cooper Cronk and James Tedesco have shown why the Sydney Roosters are an NRL premiership force after combining to lead their side to a 30‑12 win over the Canterbury Bulldogs last night.
The Roosters were leading midway through the second half at Allianz Stadium when Cronk put fellow new signing Tedesco through a gap before backing him up to finish off a 60‑metre movement.
Bulldogs captain Josh Jackson gave his side a chance after crossing in the 62nd minute, but the Roosters sealed their first win of the season with a penalty goal and a Ryan Matterson try.
The Cronk‑Tedesco connection was easily the highlight for the 12,229 crowd, with Tedesco also scoring his first try for the club and assisting on a Luke Keary four‑pointer.
In another match last night, the Broncos defeated the Cowboys 24‑20.
Meanwhile the Warriors will take on the Titans at 4.05pm today while Panthers will play Rabbitohs at 6.30pm.
