The Warriors capitalized on Raiders' mistake, scoring first with a penalty goal, 2-0.
It had all the makings of an arm wrestle early and that's exactly the way the match would pan out, the Warriors making the Raiders pay for not taking an early gift two points via a penalty goal by forcing a mistake two tackles into a Canberra attacking set.
The home side would use that momentum to march up the field and not make the same mistake as their opponents when given a penalty of their own, Luke Metcalf making no mistake with the penalty goal to give his side a 2-0 lead 15 minutes into the match.
