Raiders coach Ricky Stuart has praised the NRL's refereeing shift after the Bunker "pulled up" on retrospective penalties in Magic Round and his side secured a golden point victory.

However, Stuart was of the belief the Bunker made the right call and was happy to see the Bunker's impact on the game eased after weeks of criticism regarding officiating.

Canberra beat the Storm 20-18 after a golden point penalty goal sealed a win, with three huge penalties in the final ten minutes handing Stuart's side the victory.

Ryan Papenhuyzen's 75th minute field goal was rubbed out after the Bunker penalised lock Trent Loiero for an elbow on Canberra captain Joseph Tapine.
