Bulls or bust as Raiders chase win for finals berth
CRITICAL CONTEST
The Reef Raiders will look to secure a spot in the Rainforestation Cup finals when they take on Barron Trinity Bulls at Port Douglas Sports Complex tomorrow.
In what has been a remarkable season turnaround, the Reef Raiders now require a single competition point to guarantee a finals' berth.
At the halfway point of the competition, the Reef Raiders sat in last spot on the table with many putting a line through the team playing beyond the regular season.
“It took a while for the team to come together, but once the team clicked the results followed.” Raiders president Travis Gooch told Newsport.
“As a club, we are proud of how the team has put themselves into finals contention.”
“Tomorrow's game against Barron Bulls will be a good indication of how far the team has progressed throughout the season."
The last time the Bulls ventured to Port Douglas this season, it ended in a thrilling 22-all draw.
The action kicks off at Raider Park from 4pm tomorrow.
