The Roosters jumped 3 places and back into the top 8 into 7th spot after beating the Knights at home. Siua Wong scored his first try of the season in the 70th minute when he chased through a grubber kick. His 4 pointer put the visitors in the lead for the first time in the game and would ultimately prove the difference.
