Brett Morris gets second hat-trick as Sydney Roosters score another thumping over Wests Tigers

The Roosters have notched 40 points for the second straight week, demolishing Wests Tigers 40-6 as Brett Morris picked up a second successive hat-trick.

The Roosters won their season opener 46-4 against Manly last week, and put on a similarly dominant performance against a woeful Tigers side at Campbelltown in the second round.

Tigers halfback Luke Brooks battled to get through a banner commemorating his 150th NRL appearance, and it was perhaps more resilient that the hosts’ defence, which has leaked 70 points in two games.

The Roosters heavily targeted the Tigers’ left side defence all day, sending Morris breaking down the wing in the sixth minute, where he kicked back in-field for Tedesco to score his first try against his former team.
