Round 8 Team News: Bulldogs line-up confirmed for Roosters clash
The Canterbury-Bankstown Bulldogs have confirmed their line-up for tonight's clash with the Sydney Roosters at Accor Stadium (5:30PM).
Jayden Okunbor replaces Brent Naden on the wing, with Josh Addo-Carr to partner Aaron Schoupp for the second week running.
Max King will feature at lock after captain Josh Jackson tested positive to Covid earlier in the week. Last week's debutant Billy Tsikrikas will get another opportunity at first grade, after the club was granted an exemption to feature the local junior in our fixture against the Roosters.
Jackson Topine will feature as the side's 18th man.
The Bulldogs went down by 34-14, in last Friday's loss to the Broncos, while the Roosters were defeated 14-12 by the Dragons, in their traditional Anzac Day fixture.
