Lomax in the corner within 3 minutes

Misses goal kick

4 - 0

[Farmduck]

15min: Utoikamanu try off nice dummy half work from Koroisau

Goal kick hits the post, both touchies rule Goal but bunker reviews it and says No Goal

That's gotta be a first.

4 - 4

[Futtocks]

A video review of a conversion? Not sure I've seen that before!

[Farmduck]

Koroisau kicks penalty goal 6 - 4

16 mins to HT

[Farmduck]

27min: Jack Bird try after some ad lib play by St George

Lomax goal

St George 10 - 6

[Farmduck]

Wow! was that a penalty for deliberate knock forward and regather?

[Farmduck]

36min: Lomax takes high attacking kick and passes to Flanagan who scores. Commentators seemed to think Flanagan was offside at the kick but bunker didn't think so

Lomax goal

St George 16 - 6

[Futtocks]

Bird's game is over. The independent doc has ruled.

[Farmduck]

HT   St George  16   Wests  6

Jack Bird not coming back from HIA

[Farmduck]

It's hard to muster much optimism for the second half when Wests have lost their last 38 games when trailing at HT.

[Farmduck]

52min: Staines grounds it but ... bunker says Tigers knocked on in the lead-up

Koroisau goal

Wests 12 - 24

FT"  St George  24  Wests  12

[Futtocks]

Lomax has certainly got his mojo back.

[Futtocks]

An immense defensive effort from the Titans over the last umpteen consecutive attacking sets for the Raiders, but Schiller finally dives over in the corner.

[Futtocks]

Ooh, Golden Point!

[Futtocks]

The Raiders take it with a last-nanosecond drop goal, despite the Titans looking more likely for most of Golden Point.

[Graham]

Titans looked better and better as the game went on. Raiders scraped over the line.

[THE RED ROOSTER]

More proof this round that it is indeed sporting nirvana down under with the NRL truly a week to week League.

Who could have predicted the Injury hit Roosters and Eels coming back to win against the Knights and Cows or that the Storm and Raiders would have been taken the full 80 minutes by the Bulldogs and Gold Coast.

What will next week have in store?

[DavidM]

Nice win for the Dragons against the mighty Tigers . How does Klemmer stay on the pitch for zeroing in on Flanagan then smashing him in the melon . Terrible decision . Felt a bit sorry for the Titans , loads of effort and really got caned by the Badgerette who really is a long way behind Belinda Sharp

Titans got red hot manly next week. Their two farm teams, ipswich and tweed heads have won one game each making the organisations record won 2 lost 11

The NRL has admitted Raiders fullback Chevy Stewart was offside before his game-saving chargedown of what could have been a game-winning field goal in golden point against the Gold Coast.
