NRL head of football Graham Annesley has defended the six-again rule despite conceding Canberra could have been awarded three penalties rather than fresh sets in the last 20 seconds of their 12-10 loss to St George Illawarra.
The Canberra Raiders have moved back into the top eight with a gritty 20-12 win over the St George Illawarra Dragons on the Gold Coast tonight, Friday 6 August.
