Four current and ex-Roosters stars have struck gold with the hip-hop group they started last year, with the video for their first song being viewed 66,000 times, with even more streams on Spotify. Joey Manu, Joseph-Aukuso Suaalii, Siua Wong and Sitili Tupouniua were all teammates at the Bondi Junction club when they formed the rap outfit Dreamyourz last year - and the immediate reaction wasn't kind, with some NRL fans urging them to 'stick to footy'.

But now the quartet have had the last laugh, with their album Off-Szn amassing more than 85,000 streams on Spotify and also finding success on social media. Wong is now the only member of the group still with the Roosters after the departures of Suaalii to the Wallabies, Manu to Japanese rugby union, and Tupouniua shifting to the Bulldogs - but they're all lapping up the reaction to their shock switch to music.

'Obviously, it just started off as something that we enjoyed, and one song led to another, and we ended up coming up with an album. We were joking around about it, and then we actually did it,' Tupouniua told the Sydney Morning Herald. 'There’s a few people who may enjoy it and a few that may hate it, but it’s something we did on our time off.'.
