'We got you good': The surprise that has the Raiders smiling

Raiders hooker Chanté Temara shared how a surprise visit from their grandparents for sister Zahara's 50th NRLW match played a crucial role in keeping Canberra's finals dreams alive.

Zahara, a trailblazer in the women's game, celebrated her milestone with grace and leadership, clinching a dramatic victory against Wests Tigers by scoring a golden point field goal. This 17-16 win not only broke Canberra's 2025 home ground losing streak but also created a cherished memory for the Temara family, coinciding with Chanté's own achievement of reaching 30 NRLW games.

Behind the scenes, Chanté orchestrated a surprise that transcended mere match preparation-a heartfelt gesture that elicited smiles throughout the squad and contributed to their third consecutive victory.

The surprise involved flying their grandparents all the way from Rotorua, New Zealand, to join in the festivities of the special day.
