Central
Queensland Comets 30
Tries: Justin
Loomans 2, Wade Rothery, Graham White, Scott Minto
Goals: Walson
Carlos 5
defeated Souths Magpies 12
Tries: Matt
Lockyer, Tristan Brady-Smith
Goals: Matt
Lockyer 2
Venue: Davies Park
Date: Sat July 14
Comments: A strong second half
performance has ensured the Centrals Comets a 30-12
win against Souths at Davies Park, on Saturday. The
Magpies came out enthusiastically in the first half to
jump out to a 12-0 lead, just after 18 minutes of
play, but, as has happened in most of their matches
this year, were eventually worn down by the Comets.
Central coach Ross O'Reilly described his teams' first
half performance as woeful but they certainly made amends
in the second with a dominant effort and they secured
the win.
Toowoomba
Clydesdales 32
Tries: Brent
Tate 2, Casey McGuire, Kirk Reynoldson, Paul Carige
Goals: Damien
Quinn 6
defeated East Coast Tigers 6
Tries: Scott
Thorburn
Goals: John
Wilshere
Venue: Carrara
Stadium
Date: Sun July 15
Comments: Toowoomba look certain to take
out the minor premiership after a convincing 32-6 win
over East Coast at Carrara Stadium on Sunday.
The Clydesdales are 3 points in front of Redcliffe,
who managed to defeat Logan 36-18 on the weekend, and
it's hard to imagine they will lose twice in the final
rounds of the Bundy Gold Cup. The Tigers proved
disappointing yet again and simply don't look capable
of winning the premiership. They most likely to hold
onto fifth spot, unless Wynnum can produce some sort
of miracle, but could find themselves with an early
exit unless things improve quickly..
Burleigh
Bears 34
Tries: Greg
Bourke 3, Jim Lenihan, Grant Adamson, Simon Geros
Goals: Greg
Bourke 5
defeated Ipswich Jets 24
Tries: Marshall
Chalk, Trent Flood, Campbell McNiven
Goals: Francis
Renouf 6
Venue: Bendigo Bank Oval
Date:
Sun July 15
Comments: Burleigh ended whatever slim
chance Ipswich had of making the semi-finals by
defeating the home side 34-24 at Bendigo Bank
Oval. The Bears didn't have it all their way in
this match and trailed 10-12 at half-time but they
eventually proved to be too strong for the Jets in the
end. Greg Bourke continues his point scoring blitz
of recent weeks with 22 points (3 tries & 6 goals)
to now lead the points scorers table on 182 points..
Norths
Devils 52
Tries: Marty
Turner 4, Brook Martin 3, Brad Watts, Dallas Johnson,
John Flint
Goals: Marty
Turner 6
defeated Wests Panthers 34
Tries: Brent
Webb 3, James Brown, Geoff Rolleston, Ben Willis
Goals: James
Brown 5
Venue: Bishop Park
Date: Sun July 15
Comments: Norths hold onto fourth
spot with an unconvincing 52-34 win over Wests at
Bishop Park. The Devils scored 10 tries against the
Panthers but let their opposition score 34 in
return. Talented young half-back Marty Turner
scored 4 tries and kicked 6 goals while winger Brook
Martin grabbed a hat trick for Norths. For the
visitors, Brent Webb crossed over for 3 tries and the
young fullback, one of the few highlights for the
Panthers this year, now heads
the try scoring table on 17.
Redcliffe
Dolphins 36
Tries: Adam
Mogg 2, Phil Graham 2, Michael Roberts, Luke Scott
Goals: Damien
Richters 6
defeated Logan Scorpions
18
Tries: Brendan
Currie 2, Shane Tronc
Goals: Brad
Sim 3
Venue: Dolphin Oval
Date: Sun July 15
Comments: Redcliffe has capped off
fullback Adam Mogg's 100th first grade match with a
36-18 win over Logan at Dolphin Oval on Sunday. Mogg
scored two tries for the Dolphins as they get back on
track to back-to-back premierships, after suffering
two consecutive losses in previous weeks. However,
coach Neil Wharton will be a little disappointed that
they did not go on with the job in the second half,
having had a 30-0 lead at half-time.
