Queanbeyan Kangaroos captain-coach Sam Williams said losing two club legends Rodger Tate and Brian Fitzgerald over the last fortnight inspired their dominant victory over the West Belconnen Warriors to stay undefeated in the Canberra Raiders Cup.
The hosts were dominant from the outset on their way to a 44-6 triumph at Freebody Oval on Saturday, but this meant more than your normal triumph.
"There's no doubt that whenever someone like those guys pass away you want to try to do them proud, and our defence in the first half especially reflected that," Williams said.
