NRL: The Wests Tigers have beaten the Canberra Raiders 48-24 at Campbelltown Stadium to close Round 16 of the NRL season with a bang.

GOLD COAST , AUSTRALIA - JUNE 22: Alofiana Khan-Pereira of the Titans celebrates a try during the round 16 NRL match between Gold Coast Titans and New Zealand Warriors at Cbus Super Stadium, on June 22, 2024, in Gold Coast , Australia .

It’s the kind of performance you could expect from a 100-game veteran, not someone 14 games into their first grade career. Des Hasler once again has aAlofiana Khan Pereira - 212 running metres, 4 tries, 3 tackle busts, 2 linebreaks Marking one of rugby league’s most destructive centres, Matt Timoko, Doueihi nullified the young centre’s threat - limiting him to just one tackle bust all game.

The 22-year-old had a hand in Jaeman Salmon’s try, breaking free from several Chooks defenders before sending winger Jeral Skelton on his way down the sideline.Jayden Campbell - 74 running metres, 1 try, 11 conversion, 4 tackle breaks, 3 line break assists, 3 offloads, 118 kick metres What it came down to was this: The Titans would still beat the Warriors without Foran, but the Roosters’ win would’ve been less certain without Walker in the No.7.

There is perhaps no better front rower in the NRL at generating momentum for their side than May, who’s leg speed and skill can be too hard to handle for most sides.This felt like a vintage JWH performance. In 50 minutes, the veteran prop ran for 129 metres and broke four tackles, with his one-two punch with Terrell May proving too much for an undersized Bulldogs pack.

For an inexperienced Tigers side, Koroisau’s leadership was invaluable. He picked his moments to run and picked the right moment to scheme out of dummy half, including when he created Stefano Utoikamanu’s try. And while he didn’t score, Fifita’s excellence cannot be understated. All good back rowers have an ability to influence the scoreboard even when they don’t do it directly. Fifita did this against the Warriors, running strong lines and distracting defenders to create time and space for those around him.
