Raiders hold off injury-hit Roosters to secure gritty win on the road

NRL.com

The Raiders have survived a late comeback to overcome the Roosters 20-18 in a valuable away win to close out Round 17.

Bouncing back from a disappointing loss to the Warriors in Round 15, the Raiders rolled out of their bye red-hot on Sunday night, with Jamal Fogarty terrorising James Tedesco with the high ball, setting up two early tries off the boot.

With errors creeping into their game in the second-half, Ricky Stuart's side couldn't convert a try after the 28th minute but thanks to a Jarrod Croker penalty goal, two points was enough to secure the win at Moore Park.
