The Sydney Roosters fell painfully short in front of 13,326 fans at Allianz Stadium on Sunday evening, going down by two-points to the Canberra Raiders despite a strong second half.
Luke Keary set Joseph Manu up for two tries, the first with an inch-perfect offload and the second following a pin-point chip kick over the Canberra defence.
While Lindsay Collins backed up his Man of the Match Origin performance in style, breaking a 30-match drought to claim the final try in the 75th minute.
