NRL: Liam Martin is facing at least a week on the sidelines after he was charged for making contact with the legs of Eels halfback Daejarn Asi.
The Roosters have survived an almighty scare with the premiership fancies striking late to see off the valiant Wests Tigers , but they’ll be sweating on Jess Sergis ’ fitness after the superstar centre stayed down in agony with what appeared to be a right knee injury before she then made a miracle recovery to score the sealer.
It was 4-all with 11 minutes to go when Olivia Kernick crashed over to finally put her side in front.The Tigers have now lost 10 games in a row but this was easily their most encouraging performance of the season, with injuries to key personnel costing them dearly in Gosford. The game started well with Tess Staines breaking the deadlock when she scored off a short dropout, with the Tigers able to frustrate the Roosters’ attack which put 48 points on them a year ago.
They didn’t look like scoring with attacking weapons Emma Tonegato and Jada Taylor out injured, but a trademark Tiana Penitani try after 45 minutes got them going when she powered through three tacklers to score.
