NSW GPS: Joeys and Scots face banana skin matches ahead of final round showdown
Joeys and Scots kept their 2019 GPS premiership hopes alive with tight wins over Riverview and Kings respectively in round three.
Joeys were too strong for rivals Riverview in the second half of their grudge match at Hunters Hill scoring five tries in a 34-23 victory, while Scots scored a late try to claim a come from behind 15-14 victory over Kings.
