NAMBUCCA Heads Roosters have won their second game in a row to start the season, during a rain affected second round of the Tooheys New Group 2 Rugby League season.

The Roosters had a 44-8 win at home against the Macksville Sea Eagles, their second big win in a row which sees them as the early ladder leaders.

The scheduled games between the Woolgoolga Seahorses and Sawtell Panthers at Woolgoolga, and the South Grafton Rebels and Coffs Harbour Comets at South Grafton, were deferred due to waterlogged grounds.
