Toowoomba
Clydesdales 28
Tries: Darren
Burns 2, Corey Parker, Damien Quinn, Elia Tuqiri
Goals: Damien
Quinn 4
defeated Norths Devils 20
Tries: Michael
Russo, Nick Henderson, David Tuqiri, Steven Bell
Goals: Brook
Martin, Marty Turner
Venue: ANZ
Stadium
Date: Fri March 16
Comments: The Clydesdales held off a large
charge from Norths in the second half to record a win
at ANZ Stadium. Toowoomba dominated the first
half to lead 24-6 at half-time. Forwards Corey
Parker (watch this player because he will break into
the Broncos side at some stage this year) and Darren
Burns apparently cut a sway through the fragile Devils
defence with Parker scoring a try and Burns grabbing
two. Elia Tuqiri, cousin of Lote, charged down a
kick just minutes after the break and Norths could
have been heading for their second thrashing in two
weeks. However, the Devils dug deep and added a
bit of respectability to the score by crossing for 3
late tries.

Match Report
Wynnum
Seagulls 22
Tries: David
Seage 4, Jason Keough
Goals: Nathan
Webber
drew with Central
Queensland Comets 22
Tries: Justin
Loomans 2, Wade Rothery, Heath Egglestone, Andrew
Schick
Goals: Walson
Carlos
Venue: Kougari Oval
Date: Sat March 17
Comments: Wynnum and Central played
out a draw at Kougari Oval. The Seagulls' David
Seage scored 4 tries for his side but it wasn't enough
to ensure victory. The Comets, who have had
injury problems of recent, would be a bit happy at
getting at least a draw but could have won the game
had they converted more of their tries. The
Seagulls also had a disappointing day with the boot.
Logan
City Scorpions 40
Tries: Phil
Shilvock 2, Brad Sim, Brett Simmonds, Brendan Currie,
Damien Durnford, Steve Shilvock
Goals: Brad
Sim 6
defeated Wests Panthers 4
Tries: Mark
Eacott
Venue: Meakin Park
Date: Sat March 17
Comments: The Scorpions have
continued their great start to the season with a
thumping win over Wests at home. Logan's next
big challenge will be against the Burleigh Bears on
the Gold Coast and it will be interesting to see how
they fare against the Bears next week. If they
keep putting in performances like that, the Panthers
are set for a very long season.
Redcliffe
Dolphins 42
Tries: Damien
Richters 3, Craig O'Dwyer 2, Adam Mogg, Kevin Cook,
Barry Denduck, George Wilson
Goals: Damien
Richters 3
defeated Souths
Magpies 12
Tries: Josh
Stowers, Nathan Squassoni
Goals: Nathan
Roe, Andrew Murdoch
Venue: Dolphin Oval
Date: Sun March 18
Comments: A pretty convincing win by
the Dolphins over the struggling Magpies.
Redcliffe led from start to finish and were in full
control of the match. The Dolphins led 18-0 at
half-time and jumped out to a 38-0 lead before Souths
scored two late tries. Damien Richters scored 3
tries but it was Adam Mogg who the star of the
match. Mogg looked dangerous in attack all day
(which included a superb try just after the break) and
always wanted to get involved in the match. The
Magpies tried all day but they were not in the same
class as the home side.
