After the conclusion of a thrilling 2014 VB NSW Cup season, we take a look back at the top ten thrilling finishes from the year. Coming in at number four is a miracle finish for the Wests Tigers against the New Zealand Warriors from Round Four.

The Wests Tigers pulled off one of the most improbable victories of the season at Westpac Stadium after trailing 26-16 with only six minutes remaining, before remarkable tries to Taqele Naiyaravoro and Kurtis Rowe levelled the game with barely anytime remaining on the clock.

As the clock ticked over to the 80th minute, Blake Austin came up with the match-winning play, running the football on the final play of the game and breaking Warriors hearts in the process. 

Wests Tigers 32 (T Naiyaravoro 2, B Austin 2, S Taukafa 2, K Rowe tries; B Austin 2 goals) def.New Zealand Warriors 26 (C Tuimavave, D Peyroux, D Fusitua, R Faitala Mariner, A Papalii tries; T Lolohea 3 goals) at Westpac Stadium.
