Cowboys stay in finals race, Warriors secure top-four finish

North Queensland have bounced back from a loss to Cronulla with a 34-10 thrashing of the Dolphins, while a solid defensive display carried the Warriors to a seventh straight win.

North Queensland have kept their finals hopes alive, with fullback Scott Drinkwater starring in a 34-10 win over the Dolphins at Suncorp Stadium.

The visitors led 24-0 at the break but the Dolphins camp was fuming that winger Kyle Feldt was not penalised in the 14th minute for a karate-style kick to the mouth of halfback Sean O’Sullivan when the Cowboys winger caught a bomb.“It should have been a penalty,” Greg Alexander said in Fox Sports commentary.

The Cowboys’ 19-year-old bench forward Kulikefu Finefeuiaki showcased his enormous potential with a one-handed flick to put centre Peta Hiku over in his 200th NRL game, with prop Jordan McLean also celebrating his double-century in style.Warriors coach Andrew Webster has hailed his side’s “unbelievable” top-four finish after an 18-6 win over St George Illawarra locked them in for a double chance in the post-season.

A stifling defensive effort carried them to their seventh straight win, although it came at a cost with five-eighth Luke Metcalf leaving Mount Smart Stadium on Friday night clutching his hamstring in what could prove a huge blow just a fortnight from the finals.
