On this week’s edition of ‘All Ball’ we reflect on the incredible career of Sydney Roosters legend Jake Friend. We discuss his rocky start to his career with the Roosters, before his incredible development as a player and leader. Friend a three time premiership winner is regarded as one of the best modern day dummy halves and was unfortunate to not play more representative football. Trent Robinson evolved his offence most years and Jake's ability to adapt and help guide his team around the park was a weekly occurrence. It was a shame that his career ended prematurely but he was incredibly successful and build and unforgettable legacy at the Bondi club. 

In ‘the Match’ we pair up two club legends from the New Zealand Warriors- Roger Tuivasa-Sheck and Manu Vatuvei. RTS had an impressive start to his career for the Sydney Roosters before moving home to the Warriors and establishing himself as one of the games best players. Dominating at fullback, RTS also showed incredible leadership moving into a captaincy role and helping to guide the Warriors through some challenging times. Despite his defection to rugby union, he still remains one of the clubs best ever players. While for Vatuvei, he inspired a generation of young kiwi players to strive to play rugby league and put fear in the opposition. Manu now finds himself in a challenging situation post career but will be remembered as a fierce rugby league player. 

And to round out the show in 'Rapid Fire',  we focus in on the Gold Coast Titans, as we ask the hard hitting questions including the improvements and repairs they need to make to turn their season around. Where to now for the Titans?
