The Canberra Raiders saw their impressive nine-game winning streak come to an unexpected end on Saturday night, suffering an 18-12 defeat to the St George Illawarra Dragons.
In a match that marked one of the season's biggest surprises, the Raiders struggled in the second half, failing to score a single try in those 40 minutes.
Raiders coach Ricky Stuart was visibly frustrated during the post-match press conference, expressing his disappointment with the team's performance.
"I'm disappointed about the result," Stuart began.
"I thought we were dumb in the second half.
"In that second half, we made too many errors and forced passes, turned the footy over too much and gave them a lot of field position against that breeze."
