Roosters v Dragons preview
Sydney Roosters v St. George Illawarra Dragons
Allianz Stadium - Saturday 4:00pm 
Well, this game should be a cracker!
The Roosters come into this one on the back of three straight losses to the Sharks, Broncos and Storm, although despite all of these losses they are still one of the teams to beat in the competition.
They Roosters will have Sam Moa return from suspension this week - a timely return considering they will be without the services of Jared Warea-Hargreaves, who will miss at least six weeks with a pectoral injury.
Conversely, the Dragons are buoyed by five wins in as many weeks. Their wins have been built mainly from their defence, although their attack has improved a great deal over the past few weeks. Their performances have seen them rise to the top of the table after a poor start to the season.
Last meeting: Round 21 2014 - Sydney Roosters 30 St. George Illawarra Dragons 22
Who to watch: Departing Roosters fullback Roger Tuivasa-Sheck has been in great form with ball in hand. He's averaging almost 250 metres per game, and is returning kicks like they are no problem at all. The Dragons' kicking game will need to be spot-on if they are to mitigate him as a threat.
For the Dragons, Benji Marshall has been back to his best in the last few weeks. His performances have been reminiscent of Benji of old, and Dragons fans could not be happier. Last week against the Broncos Marshall was quiet, but the two weeks before that he was setting up tries, kicking for huge metres, and setting his outside men into space almost every time he touched the ball.
The favourite: The Roosters are favourites in this game, although don't be surprised if there's an upset.
My tip: I'm going against the punters here, mainly on the back of the Dragons' defence. Dragons by 2.
