Cordner leads Roosters over Broncos in National Rugby League

SYDNEY (AP) Two tries from second rower Boyd Cordner led the Sydney Roosters to an 18-16 win over Brisbane, moving the Roosters into the top four in the National Rugby League.

Broncos goalkicker Jordan Kahu had a chance to send the game into golden point on Saturday when Tautau Moga crossed with three minutes remaining. But his sideline conversion hooked wide.

The St. George Illawarra Dragons beat Wests Tigers 16-12 after leading 12-2 at halftime earlier Saturday.

The results left the Melbourne Storm in first place with 22 points, followed by defending champion Cronulla with 20 and the Dragons and Roosters on 18 points.
