“I think they're, if you listen to everyone and go off current form, probably the team to beat,” McGoldrick said.
“They’ve recruited real well and have a couple of our old players, Tongia Fox and George Broome, who bring a lot to that team.
“They’re a real strong side, it’ll be a real good test and show us where we are at.”
The sides met at the Group 20 Knockout where the Roosters held their own against the Black and Whites and lost by just two points.
DPC went on to register a two-point win over Leeton at the knockout and McGoldrick was more than satisfied with the performance.
“Real happy, I couldn’t ask to get any more out of those games,” McGoldrick said.
”We had a few young blokes play...it [the team] is a real big bunch of local lads that really want to have a go for each other.”
The Roosters will be without Nick Briggs and Dillon Bartter who are both serving three week suspensions for, as McGoldrick puts it, “naughty language” and “staring at a referee”.
The match is slated to start around 6pm.
