East
Coast Tigers 28
Tries: John
Wilshere, Marcus Jensen, Scott Sipple, Ricky Taylor,
Scott Thorburn
Goals: John
Wilshere 4
defeated Norths Devils 18
Tries: Paul
Whaturia 2, Terry Benson, Semi Tadulala
Goals: Paul
Sheedy
Venue: Bishop Park
Date: Sat July 28
Comments: East Coast has gained a
bit of an psychological edge with a win over Norths at
Bishop Park. These two sides are almost certain to
play in the elimination semi-final and a win in this
game would go a long way in gaining home ground
advantage for this match. The Tigers' win now gives
them a good chance of snatching 4th spot off the
Devils, whom they now only trail by 1 point. They have
an much easier draw than Norths and would be
favourites to finish in that spot at the end of the
preliminary rounds.

Lambert
Venue: Browne
Park
Date: Sat July 28
Comments: Central has gained a bit of
revenge on the Panthers with a commanding win at
home. Wests defeated the Comets in Round 9 but
were unable to repeat that performance in this
match. Panthers' fullback Brent Webb extended
his lead on the top try scorers table to 5 with
another 2 tries against Central.
Toowoomba
Clydesdales 48

Coorey 3, Steve Irwin 2, Tony Duggan, Nathan Murphy,
Michael Ryan, Christian Robertson
Goals: Damien
Quinn 6
defeated Wynnum Seagulls
14
Tries: Eddie
Aila 2, Daniel Frame
Goals: Jay
O'Doherty
Venue: Newtown Oval
Date: Sun July 29
Comments: Toowoomba have
officially wrapped up the minor premiership with a
crushing victory over a disappointing Wynnum on
Newtown Oval. The Clydesdales are 5 points in
front of Redcliffe, who had the bye this weekend, and
can not be overtaken in the final rounds of the
competition. Michael Coorey led the onslaught for
Toowoomba with 3 tries with replacement back Steve
Irwin also nabbing 2. The loss ends whatever
chance of the Seagulls had of making the semi-finals
and they will have to look to next year.

defeated Souths Magpies 18
Tries: Tristan
Brady-Smith 2, Darren Lawson, Mohammed Allouche
Goals: Matt
Lockyer
Venue: Davies Park
Date:
Sun July 29
Comments: Burleigh kept the pressure on
Redcliffe with a solid win over Souths. The
Bears virtually 'shut up shop' once they had raced to
a 30-0 lead after 50 minutes and let the Magpies in
for a few consolation tries. Unfortunately for the
home side, errors in their own half cost them dearly
and Burleigh pounced on any opportunity with open
arms. By the time Mohammed Allouche crashed over
for Souths' first try, the game was pretty much all
over for the Magpies.
