THREE rounds in, SYDNEY ROOSTERS are the only side with three wins after holding off a late surge by previously flawless BRISBANE BRONCOS to win 30-26.
Jasmin Strange, Taira Naividi and Odesa Pule tries, all converted by Jocelyn Kelleher on a perfect day from the tee, put the visiting Roosters 18-0ahead after only twelve minutes.
And while Tamika Upton responded with a double, the first of Olivia Kernick’s two tries helped make it 24-10 at half-time.
Annetta-Claudia Nu’uausala and Lauren Dam scores (both converted by Romy Teitzel, adding to one in the first period) threatened a Broncos comeback.
