Raiders defeat Roosters 14-12 in dramatic game, claims back-to-back wins against top four teams.

The Raiders have claimed back-to-back wins against teams in the top four after downing the Roosters 14-12 in dramatic fashion.

With the win to the Knights earlier in the day realistically ending Canberra's hopes of finals this year, it was a dramatic opening half away from the football with injuries to key players on both sides. 

Raiders fullback Jordan Rapana was ruled out of the match early with a fractured cheekbone, while Sam Walker and Brandon Smith were both assisted from the field with a lower leg injuries. Walker suffered a suspected ACL tear, while it was a suspected knee injury that ruled Smith out.
