At Oberon on the coldest day of the year the Tigers outlasted strong-finishing Condobolin for a satisfying but scrappy 42-34 win, the Rams scoring the final two tries, each converted.
Orange United continued the winning trend with their 66-6 defeat of hosts Eugowra whose game fell away in the second half for United to take complete control.
