Braith Anasta Roosters 2009

Braith's switch a signal of intent

Sydney Roosters coach Brad Fittler has signaled his will to win by moving captain Braith Anasta from lock forward to five eighth for the season opener on Sunday 15 March.

Anasta will continue his successful NRL combination with Mitchell Pearce in a bid to extinguish the chances of bitter rivals South Sydney Rabbbitohs spoiling the party.
