Barrow Raiders denied win by London Broncos

Barrow Raiders were denied another Betfred Championship win by a last gasp converted try by London Broncos.

The visitors were collecting their first point of the season with the 18-18 draw on the day that table leaders Featherstone also drew, the first time they had dropped a point.

Featherstone and Barrow, despite the draws, remain the two unbeaten sides in the Championship and lie first and second with the Cumbrians having a game in hand.

The Raiders had started well and after Jarrad Stack had gone close, held up over the line, they managed to break the deadlock on 17 minutes.

It was Tee Ritson who scored a try with a typical long-range effort. Taking the ball in his own 22 he side-stepped his way through a couple of tackle before racing 80 metres to score the opening try which Jarrod Sammut converted.

Ritson came up with the finish seven minutes later when Barrow moved the ball well  and the winger was on the end of it to dive over spectacularly in the corner. Sammut converted.

Broncos got back into the contest on 34 minutes after Rhys Curran had been held up on the line they kept pressing and Calum Gahan crashed over for an unconverted try.

Ten minutes into the second half the visitors were reduced to 12 men when Paul Ulberg was sent to the bin for a trip on Shane Toal.

Yet three minutes later they were able to reduce the deficit to just four points when they broke down the left and Paulos Latu went over for a second unconverted try.

But London were still short-handed when Barrow scored their third try. This time Ritson was the provider with an elusive run before the ball was spread across field and Shane Toal went in. Sammut landed his third goal.

With a ten point lead going into the last ten minutes Barrow will have been disappointed to concede that advantage with the visitors scoring two more tries, but crucially only converting one.

On 74 minutes the Raiders were short of cover down the left side and there was enough room for Oli Leyland to get through and dive over for the third unconverted try.The Broncos had lasted the pace well and on 79 minutes their resilience was rewarded when Alex Walker sprinted through for a try. This time the kick from Sitiveni Mociedreke was accurate and London had their first point.
