defeated Norths
Devils 14
Tries: Ashley
Dudson 2, Matt Dux
Goals: Marty Turner
Venue: Langlands
Park
Date: Sat July 8
Comments: The Tigers still
remain in the hunt for the minor
premiership following a narrow 4 point
win over fifth placed, Norths. Scott
Thorburn scored 2 early tries for Easts
to lead 12-0 but the Devils came back
with Ashley Dudson replying with 2 of his
own to trail the home side by only 12-8
at the break. The home side extended
their lead to 10 when Wade Liddell went
in for a try, after the Tigers had won a
scrum against the feed. Norths hit back
in the 60th minute with a try to Matt Dux
and the score became 18-14 in favour to
Easts. However, the home side managed
ward off the Devils attack for the rest
of the match and eventually recorded a
good victory.

Goals: Ty
Walter 2
Venue: Alley
Park, Gordonvale
Date:
Sat July 8
Comments: The result of
this game was never in doubt and the
Dolphins cruised in for an easy win
against the hapless Cyclones. Redcliffe
still hold onto top spot and are inching
closer to securing the minor premiership.
The Dolphins led 32-0 at halftime and
stepped off the accelerator a bit in the
second half, letting the home side in for
20 points. As for the Cyclones, it is yet
another thrashing and continues their
woeful season.

Field Goals: Ben Walker
defeated
Central Queensland Comets 28
Tries: Justin
Loomans 2, Clint Rothery 2, Ian Dunemann
Goals: Graham
White 4
Venue: Browne Park
Date: Sat July 8
Comments: Toowoomba have
snatched a 7 point victory in Rockhampton
and have effectively ended the Comets'
hopes of making the semi-finals.
Disappointing the 3000 odd crowd that
turned up at Browne Park, the Clydesdales
scored a try and a field goal in the
final three minutes to break a 28-all
deadlock. The win means that Toowoomba
look to have secured a top 3 position on
the ladder following Burleigh's loss on
the weekend. As for Central, it was
another game that was there for the
taking but they faulted in the final
minutes to give the Clydesdales the win.
Logan City Scorpions 50

Magpies 24
Tries: David Mulhall,
Marco Peters, Andrew Murdoch, Jonathon
Smith, Wayne Wilkinson
Goals: David
Mulhall, Henry Perenara
Venue: Meakin Park
Date: Sun July 9
Comments: The Logan
Scorpions went on a 10 try romp as they
tore apart the Magpies at their home
ground. Charles Kennedy and David Tuqiri
both scored three tries each and
fullback, Sean Ireland, also got among
the action with two of his own. The home
side still remain in the hunt for a
semi-final (although highly unlikely)
with the side trailing the 5th placed
Devils by 2 points. As for Souths, need I
say any more!!!
Wynnum Seagulls 18
Tries: David Seage 2, Glen Butler
Goals: Dallas
McIllwain 3
defeated
Wests Panthers 10
Tries: Aaron Morgan,
Nathan Webber
Goals: Nathan Webber
Venue: Kougari Oval
Date: Sun July 9
Comments: Wynnum gained
some revenge for Round 10's humiliation
with a home win against the Panthers. The
Seagulls have moved 3 points adrift of
Cairns and have successfully avoided the
wooden spoon.
Ipswich Jets 28
Tries: Russell Bussian 3,
Marshall Chalk, Danny McAllister
Goals: Chris Lawler 4
defeated Burleigh
Bears 18
Tries: Reggie Cressbrook,
Grant Adamson, Nick Shaw
Goals: Reggie
Cressbrook 3
Venue: Pizzey Park
Date: Sun July 9
Comments: A big upset
and, considering Burleigh had won 6 games
on the trot, a very good win by the Jets
at Pizzey Park. While it is a big scalp,
it's a bit too late for Ipswich to make
the semi-finals and will rue their
inconsistency throughout the whole
season. The loss for the home side means
that they will likely stay in 4th spot at
the end of the preliminary rounds and
face Norths in a knockout semi-final at
home. Russell Bussian picked up 3 tries
for the visitors.
