Sue: "Roosters are a new test for us"

Wests Tigers forward Sauaso Sue says the Club isn't getting caught up in the excitement of last week's win over the Brisbane Broncos, saying that this week's clash against the Sydney Roosters on Sunday at Allianz Staidum is a whole new challenge.

Sue, who returned from injury off the interchange bench last week, said that while the side gained plenty of confidence from the thrilling one-point vicotry, it would all be vain if they didn't back it up with a similarly strong performance against the Roosters on Sunday.

"Of course we take a little bit of confidence from that win," he said, "but the Roosters are a whole different team and we need to make sure we've prepared right for them.

"We need to get our bodies and minds focused on the role we have to do.

"They've always smashed us every game I've played against them," he said.

"We just need to muscle up in the middle and not be afraid to get into [Jared Waerea] Hargreaves and their big forwards. If we can do our job, the backs will do their thing."

See what Sauaso had to say in full about this week's game in the video above!

Big Test for the 'PACK' coming up…

Lets hope the Brat Pack don't show up Geo

I really like to see one of our forwards take on JWH , but I realize this probably won't happen
 
I would really like to beat them for once, seems they just lap us every time.
 
Very BIG test. Roosters certainly boast a big pack and I reckon most of them will have pencilled this round in for a win. Sure hope our boys can fire up and reverse the trend for a welcome change.
 
huge test for WT.

The difference could be the bench.

Our bench is too light for my likening.

Prefer JJ Feilise and Lovett along with Grant and Sue.

No need for Dean and Ballin for this match.

I'm assuming that if Robbie is fit to play, Dene will drop off the bench and Lovett come into the team. Also, that Felise will come in if, for some reason, Woodsy can't play.
 
I'd say Woodsy will be raring to go. Only played 40 minutes last night. I wouldn't be playing Farah any longer than 40 minutes this week as Ballin looked pretty sharp last week and will be better for the run. Halatau to drop off the bench and Lovett or Felise to come on. Slow track expected too.

Agree re Farah.

Just checked the weather forecast - up to 35mm on Saturday and up to 70mm on Sunday. Will have to get there early to grab once of the few seats high enough to miss the rain.
