    Sydney Roosters coach Trent Robinson expects his players will be just fine despite two months away from the game

    Sydney Roosters coach Trent Robinson expects his players will be just fine despite two months away from the game

    - article from www.rugbyleague.co.nz

    The NRL has returned with a revamped season, kicking off last night.

    Tonight the Roosters take on arch-rivals the South Sydney Rabbitohs at Parramatta's Bankwest Stadium.

    The competition was suspended for two months, but Robinson doesn't expect that to factor in.



    Kick off's at 9:55pm.

    Meanwhile the Cowboys host the Titans at 8.
