THE Wyong Roos kept their NSW Cup minor premiership hopes alive with a gutsy 18-16 victory over the North Sydney Bears at Morry Breen Field on Sunday.
The Roos flew out of the blocks early for an 18-0 lead after just 15 minutes before the Bears clawed back with 16 unanswered points just before half-time.
The match saw a scoreless second half, with some inspirational defensive efforts from both sides.
Heavy and constant rain caused poor ball control by both teams for the entire game.
In the end the teams were only separated bya Tyler Cornish conversion.
The Roos share top spot on the ladder with Penrith and Mounties, and take on last-placed Wentworthville at Pirtek Stadium on Saturday at 12.40pm.
