Sydney beat Manly 40-16 in semi-final to set up clash with MelbourneCaptain finishes with two tries and two assists at Allianz Stadium
James Tedesco has shown he is capable of carrying a depleted Sydney Roosters through the finals, knocking Manly out with a 40-16 win at Allianz Stadium. In a brutal Saturday night showing, the Roosters battered and bruised the Sea Eagles to set up a preliminary final against Melbourne at AAMI Park.
Manly lost Tolu Koula to a concussion in the first tackle of the semi-final, and had a dusty Jake Trbojevic sent for a HIA on the very next play. But ultimately the most damage was done on the scoreboard, where the Roosters rushed out to a 20-0 lead and kept control of the game throughout.
