Live: Knights make lightning start in the wet against the Raiders
The Newcastle Knights will look to keep their slim hopes of a top four finish alive when they head to Canberra to take on the Raiders. Follow live.
The Dragons secured a thrilling 24-16 victory over the Sharks in a wet derby at Kogarah, ending the Raiders season with a 30-24 win in Canberra. With the Raiders trailing 26-24 in the final 10 minutes, Horsburgh's penalty slap on Gagai resulted in the penalty being overturned. Stuart was furious, saying, "We should have gone 26-all and there was a brain explosion."
The Raiders fans were aggrieved as Gagai was not sin binned earlier in the half. St George Illawarra beat Cronulla Sutherland 24-16, dealing the Sharks top-two finals hopes a blow. The Dragons, despite their imperfections, remain in contention to avoid the wooden spoon.
