Late try gives Roosters another NRLW grand final spot
The Sydney Roosters secured their NRLW grand final spot, defeating the Raiders 20-10, led by Tarryn Aiken's late try.
The Canberra Times
The Sydney Roosters are into their third consecutive NRLW grand final after halfback Tarryn Aiken's late try helped subdue the Raiders 20-10 at Sydney's Allianz Stadium.
The final eight minutes of Saturday night's game were fairly frantic, with only a converted try between the sides after a four-pointer by Canberra's England international Hollie-Mae Dodd.

The undefeated Sydney Roosters are close to finishing with the perfect season, landing a spot in the NRLW grand final.
The preliminary final against the Raiders at Allianz Stadium wasn't easy for the Roosters, only sealing victory in the last two minutes when halfback Tarryn Aiken scored a brilliant solo try to make it 20-10.
Aiken's match-winning try makes for a heart-warming story after she missed last year's grand final with a knee injury.
"Aiken ices it - she missed out on the grand final 12 months ago in heartbreaking fashion, but she'll be there in 2026," Brenton Speed said on Nine.
