Has a team ever missed 63 tackles and still won the match?In a fast and furious thriller on Friday night, the Cowboys somehow managed to miss a truckload of tackles - Penrith missed 40 - yet still won in golden point.With both teams without their Origin players, it was a massive win for the Cowboys as they continue to claw their way back into the premiership race after their poor start to the year.There were plenty of plusses for the Cowboys - their young replacements stood up and Jason Taumalolo, coming back from the worst injury of his career, came off the bench and played 58 minutes, running for 179 metres.Trailing 20-12 at half-time, the Cowboys showed true grit to fight back and are slowly rediscovering their sparkling form of 2022.
