Comments:
Souths are not going to be easy beats, this year, after beating the Cyclones quite easily. The Magpies narrowly led 6-4 at half-time but turned it on in the second half despite only having 12 men left.

Ref: Tony Maksoud
Comments: Neither side looked impressive in this match however, Redcliffe just did enough to defeat the Panthers. Wests scooted out to 8-0 lead in the first 10-20 minutes with tries to Bulgarelli and captain, Craig Bowen. Redcliffe hit back and scored three tries to give the Dolphins an 8 point lead. However, just before half-time, Wests pegged back the lead with a penalty goal to Nathan Burke. Half-time score was 16-10 in Redcliffe's favour.

The second half was a mistake ridden one and never scaled to any great heights. Redcliffe got on top of the Panthers and a penalty goal and a try wrapped up the game for the Dolphins, leading 24-10. Wests scored a consolation try right on full time with a great break by winger, Robbie David. Redcliffe ran out winners 24-18.
