LAKES BACK INTO TOP SPOT IN THE REAL NRL

Lakes have moved back into top spot in the Real NRL, edging out Wests in a low-scoring contest this afternoon.
Trailing by two shortly before the break, Lakes went into half time in front.
Country hooker Chris Adams returned from rep duty to set up Kallin Adams.
Chris Knight tried to lift the Rosellas, but gave away a penalty for a tackle on Casey Burgess.
The game represented the return to league for Craig Smith, with the 43-year-old former NRL forward playing his first game in nine years.
He was part of the build up for the Seagulls next try.
Wests looked like getting back in it when Simon Williams went over, but he was held up.
In the end the wet weather took its toll, as Lakes hung on by six.
