Norths Devils 30
Tries: Paul
Sheedy, Steve Bell, Gus McKellar, Wade
Fenton, Matt Dux, Peter Robinson
Goals: Ryan
Gundry 2, Gus McKellar
defeated Ipswich
Jets 12
Tries: Francis
Renouf, Danny Coburn
Goals: Chris
Lawler 2
Venue: First
Provincial Oval
Date: Sat April 1
Comments: Uninspiring game with
both teams making many errors. Norths,
coming off a thrashing, were still pretty
ordinary but were lucky that their
opponent was worse. The Jets dominated
possession in the first half but could
not get over the try line due to silly
errors and some tremendous defence from
the Devils. Norths exposed Ipswich's
weakness out wide and took full advance
of that but even their execution was
below their standards. The Devils led
14-2 at half-time and were never headed
after that.
Logan City Scorpions 40
Tries: Shaun
Ireland 2, Brett Bowman 2, Phil Shilvock
2, Grant Dutton, Brendon Lindsay
Goals: Grant Dutton 3,
Terry O'Regan
defeated Cairns
Cyclones 0
Venue: Meakin Park
Date:
Sat April 1
Comments: Logan City
have registered their second thrashing in
a row, this time dealing it to Cairns. The Scorpions are probably still a long
chance of making the finals but, with
wins like this, it will do their chances
no harm. Less said about the Cyclones the
better.
Burleigh Bears 36
Tries: Irwin
Appo 2, Reggie Cressbrook, Jim Lenihan,
Grant Adamson, Dean Allen, Tony Gray
Goals: Reggie Cressbrook 4
defeated
Wests Panthers 16
Tries: Robbie
David 2, John Bruce, Scott Whiting
Venue: Pizzey Park
Date: Sat April 1
Comments: The Bears
proved too strong for the inexperienced
Wests side with the forwards proving a
big hurdle for the Panthers. Burleigh
went into sheds with a 18-8 half-time
lead but Wests immediately scored in the
second half to get within 6 points of the
lead. However, the Bears dominated the
rest of the game from that point onwards.
Souths Magpies 26
Tries: David Mulhall,
Brodie Caldwell, Paul Whatuira, Andrew
Murdoch, Wayne Wilkinson
Goals: David Mulhall 3
defeated Central
Queensland Comets 22
Tries: Heath Eggleston,
Kere Parata, Matt Barclay, Tristan Brady-Smith
Goals: Ken Graham 2, Danny Price
Venue: Browne Park
Date: Sat April 1
Comments: Great turn
around from Souths in this match by
defeating the home side by 4 points. The
Magpies erased last week's ordinary
effort by scoring 20 points in the second
half. The Comets have lost their last two
games, in which they should have probably
won, while Souths have now broken a four
match losing streak.
Toowoomba
Clydesdales 44
Tries: Kirk Reynoldson 3,
Adam Warwick, Justin Hodges, Darren Mapp,
Carl Webb, Jan Petrie
Goals: Adam
Warwick 5, Damien Quinn
defeated
Wynnum Seagulls 4
Tries: Alan Glyde
Venue: Kougari Oval
Date: Sun April 2
Comments: The result of
this match was never in doubt. Wynnum
were always going to face an uphill
battle against the pace setters of the
Bundy Gold Cup and Toowoomba dealt them a
hammering. With Easts losing to
Redcliffe, the Clydesdales are now the
solitary team on 12 points at the top of
the table and are certainly on the way to
greater things.
Redcliffe Dolphins 24
Tries: Ata Isarabhakdi,
John Olzard, Craig O'Dwyer, Barry Denduck
Goals: Damien Richters 3,
Michael Roberts
defeated Easts
Tigers 12
Tries: Gavin Allen 2
Goals: John
Wilshere 2
Venue: Langlands Park
Date: Sun April 2
Comments: A see-sawing
battle which either side looking capable
of winning. Redcliffe turned out their
best performance of the year at Langlands
with interchange player , Barry Denduck,
scoring the match winning try. The
Dolphins led 10-4 at half-time but the
Tigers' never gave in. Once Dunduck
scored his try, Redcliffe led 24-12 with
a few minutes to go and it was game over
for Easts. The Dolphins are now getting
things together after a inconsistent
start.
