Against a side who had won nine out of nine at home, Raiders looked all but down and out when they conceded three tries in the first 27min.

But given a lifeline by Adam Nixon's eye for a small opening, they got back into the game by half-time and completed the recovery in the second half to improve their chances of a top-five finish.

Blair Campbell and Malcolm Barnes also scored for tries for Raiders with Owen Thomas adding three conversions.
