79 min: Big Royce Hunt whips the crowd into a frenzy with a 35m charge to the try line against his former club. Too big, too strong. Tigers win 33-14 to jump back into second spot on the ladder. Thanks for joining us this evening, and stand by for Christian Nicolussi’s match report online.
75 min: Doueihi caps an outstanding game by landing a field goal that secures victory. Tigers 27-14
72 min: Desperate Tigers defence denies a diving Stuart a try in the right-hand corner. That could be enough to ensure the home side wins.
62 min: The Tigers create space on their left and Laulilii steps inside Timoko to score his second try tonight. Doueihi converts from out wide. Tigers 26-14. Meanwhile, Kai Pearce-Paul’s evening is over after failing a HIA.
59 min: The Tigers have enjoyed the lion’s share (see what I did there, haha) of possession in the second half, but the Raiders trail by only six points. Tigers 20-14
46 min: Superb offload from Samuela Fainu puts Doueihi in for his second try. Beetson or Sonny Bill Williams would have been proud to call that pass their own. Doueihi converts. Tigers 20-14
42 min: Taylan May, who has looked dangerous all evening, muscles his way over after the Raiders are penalised early on. Doueihi misses the kick. 14-14
41 min: Raiders kick off to get the second half under way. Raiders 14-10
The Raiders, who by the way have won their past three matches at Leichhardt Oval, take a handy 14-10 lead to the break after trailing 10-0 early. The scene is set for an absorbing second half.
38 min: Luai is penalised for an escort near his line, and Sanders boots his third goal tonight. Raiders 14-10
