The NRL's sixth round is in the bag, and with it came plenty of tries and one big moment of controversy.

The Broncos title favouritism strengthened with a shut-out 26-0 win over the Dragons, while the Cowboys came good at the end to beat the Panthers 23-18.

The Roosters put their poor form to one side to shock the Rabbitohs 17-10, while the Eels ran riot against Canberra in a 36-6 thumping.

There were also wins for Manly, Cronulla and the Bulldogs.

But the biggest controversy of the week came in the Knights 18-16 win over the Wests Tigers, with Korbin Sims exploiting a bizarre multi-ball situation to bamboozle rival full-back Jordan Rankin.
