The Steamers moved around Wagga City on the compressed middle of the Southern Inland ladder after a 31-21 win on Saturday.
They are three points behind Griffith and now one point clear of next week's rivals Wagga City with three rounds to play.
Assistant-coach James Kora was pleased with how the side overcame a difficult road trip
"It was an important win for us," Kora said.
"It is always tough going to Tumut trying to get a win."
Tumut started well but the Steamers were able to overcome the early pressure to jump well clear before a consolation effort from the Bulls reduced the margin.
Kora thought getting the likes of Sam Allen and Tom Wilmore in the back line more involved helped turn the tide.
"We've got to keep building from here on in," Kora said.
