EDIT: Apparently this message didn't go through!

The Roosters have a few late changes.

Joseph Manu is OUT. Former Melbourne Storm NYC player Brendan Frei will shift to the centres with the highly rated workaholic Nat Butcher shifting to lock.

Get a load of this name, Joseph Ratuvakacereivalu (how much would that be worth in Scrabble?) comes onto the bench for Jackson Frei. Tonight's game will be his third in the Holden Cup after an impressive debut against Cronulla (12 carries 143m).
