Although conceding a loss, Rhinos player Tom Rigmany was still impressed with how his team mates performed.
"I thought our ball movement over the first two quarters was really good, we had some great passages of play down the wing which led to goals." Rigmany said.
Rigmany did however point out where the game was lost.
"Although Nathan Bowz and Nick Burri fought really hard for us, overall the Buffs had better legs and then we started to turn the ball over with a few poor disposals." He said.
This did not deter Mr Rigmany from feeling good heading into the final round.
"We have a fairly strong team next weekend against Lake Nash so I'am quietly confident to get the win," he said.
