Cunningham delivers killer blow on London . With just three minutes remaining the Broncos were clinging to an 18-14 lead built on tenacious defence in heavy conditions. Finally they looked set to end a run of 9 straight defeats at the hands of St Helens in the nation's capital, to earn their first ever home victory over Saints. But Rugby League is a cruel game and a fickle respecter of effort, courage and skill. Ask Tony Rea or Richie Barnett.
