Johnson field goal secures gritty Warriors win

A Shaun Johnson golden point field goal has helped the Warriors make it three on the trot, overcoming a gutsy Raiders comeback to win 21-20 in front of a packed home crowd on Friday night.

An incredible late surge from Ricky Stuart's Raiders, with Elliot Whitehead and Jack Wighton tries saw the visitors go back-to-back in two minutes but a missed Jarrod Croker conversion put the game into extra time.

But when Johnson slotted his first opportunity for a one-pointer from 30m out, the Warriors broke the raiders' hearts for a second time this seasonĀ and booked a spot in the top three of the competition ladder.
