Round 19 of the National Rugby League (NRL) season will see the St. George Illawarra Dragons and the the Sydney Roosters face off at Jubilee Stadium in Sydney.
The Dragons have endured a challenging 2025 NRL season, entering Round 19 with the second-worst defensive record in the competition. With nine defeats from their opening 15 matches, the club finds itself in 11th place on the ladder as they prepare for a daunting encounter against the Roosters.
Meanwhile, the Roosters have had their own struggles with form and momentum. Sitting ninth on the ladder heading into Round 19, Sydney have managed seven wins and suffered eight losses, with their season marked by an inability to build sustained form. Their latest outing saw them narrowly beaten by the Wests Tigers, adding further frustration to an already inconsistent year.
