Last week was week 6 of the nrl season, and Friday's match, the Rooster vs Bulldogs is a great match with the Roosters thrashing the Bulldogs 38-0 to a crowd of 22,552 people. Many believe it was possible only because of Sonny Bill Williams who is actually a former Bulldogs player. It is no secret that this two clubs have been long time rivals and this is the Roosters biggest win over the Bulldogs since 1935.

Early on in the game, an error had the Roosters on the back foot, however as they they have been all year, they held firm in firm defence and soon Roosters were awarded a penalty for their efforts. Nine minutes into the game and the Roosters had a try. It was 39 minutes later into the game when Roosters star Sonny Bill Williams scored a try. Less than 10 minutes later, another try is scored by the Roosters. 8 minutes later in the 62nd minute of the game, Williams scores another try and with Maloney's conversions, this brought the score to 24-0. It is not long before Maloney makes a try followed by Jennings a few minutes later. By the end of the game, the Bulldogs were in utter defeat, not having scored any points. What a GAME!
