    Newcastle defeated Canberra 30-24, with Dominic Young scoring twice, despite key injuries, solidifying their top-eight position in the NRL.

    The Canberra Times

    Newcastle have shrugged off the loss of key personnel to virtually end Canberra's NRL finals hopes by grinding out a see-sawing 30-24 victory at GIO Stadium.

    The Knights' injury list ballooned ahead of Sunday's damp clash with centre Bradman Best and hooker Phoenix Crossland (both calf) ruled out, joining halfback Dylan Brown and second-rower Dylan Lucas on the sidelines.

    But Newcastle (13-8), buoyed by celebrating Tyson Frizell's 300th game, produced a fearless performance to solidify their position inside the top eight.

    The Knights may have more players to add to their casualty ward though, as Frizell hobbled off the field in the second half.

    The Canberra Times

    Canberra have produced the boilover the NRLW season by dominating the previously unbeaten Brisbane 28-4, before Wests Tigers snatched victory from St George Illawarra in the last minute of their nailbiter.

    While Sunday's loss to Canberra came with a devastating record deficit for the Broncos, the Tigers took another step towards a maiden NRLW finals appearance.

    It was cold and wet at GIO Stadium, but the Raiders brought the heat with the coup of the season, completely outplaying the visitors and scoring five tries to one.

    It was Brisbane's first loss of the year and snapped their 15-game unbeaten streak.

    The Broncos lost their NRLW top spot after a stunning 28-4 defeat to the Raiders, ending their 15-game winning streak.

    Wide World of Sports

    The Broncos no longer hold the top spot on the NRLW ladder after the reigning premiers were left stunned in the nation's capital against a roaring Raiders outfit.

    A trip back to the sunshine state will be one of great reflection for Scott Prince's group after their 15-game winning streak ended due to a 28-4 loss in Canberra.

    The wet conditions worked in the favour of the host side, who brushed off the early attacking threats posed by the Broncos to turn the game on its head.

    Brisbane were the first to get their name on the scoreboard in Canberra, doing so via a remarkable try from Lauren Dam. The try was unable to be converted.
