The results are in, the fans have spoken and we have made up the starting Nines line-up based on your choices ahead of the official squad announcement.

There were some tight squeezes as far as positional choices, but there were also some clear favourites. 

While Joseph Manu was a clear favourite in the wing position, Johnny Tuivasa-Sheck and Blake Ferguson were battling for the other wing spot. 

Dylan Napa snatched up the final spot in the forwards, but he was closely followed by Kane Evans throughout the entirety of the poll. 

Thanks for voting Roosters fans and keep an eye out for the official Auckland Nines squad announcement.
