defeated Central Comets 16
Tries: Justin

Goals: Graham
White 2
Venue: Bishop Park
Date:
Sat April 21
Comments: An ordinary game of football
with the Devils running comfortable winners over a
very disappointing Comets outfit. Central's
defensive effort was simply woeful and they really
have problems because Norths weren't that impressive
either. The Devils jumped out to 18-0 lead and
led 18-4 at half-time. The Comets staged a bit
of a comeback when they got within two points of the
lead, after scoring two converted tries after the
break. However, that's as close as they got and
Norths ran away with the match to score an easy
win.

Goals: Marc
Fickling 3
defeated Ipswich Jets 20
Tries: Junior
Togia, Andrew Hamilton, Jeff Johnson, Darren Jackson
Goals: Reggie
Cressbrook 2
Venue: Bendigo Bank
Oval
Date: Sat April 21
Comments: The Panthers have scored a
fantastic come-from-behind win against the
Ipswich. The Jets jumped to an early 16-6 lead
in the first half but allowed Wests to score a try to
peg back the score to 16-10, just before half-time.
Wests played disciplined football in the second half
and eventually ran out 6 point victors over a
disappointing Ipswich outfit. It was the Panthers first
victory of the season and one that came after that
horrible flogging at the hands of Toowoomba.
This is the second time Ipswich have been beaten by a
side you would expect them to defeat and this puts a
major question mark on their chances of making the
semi-finals.
Redcliffe
Dolphins 28
Tries: Adam
Mogg 2, Michael Roberts, Troy Mitchell, Jason Webber
Goals: Damien
Richters 4
defeated East Coast Tigers
8
Tries: John
Wilshere
Goals: Scott Thorburn, John Wilshere
Venue: Dolphin Oval
Date: Sun April 22
Comments: Redcliffe remain unbeaten
for the season after a commanding win over the East
Coast Tigers at home. A good first half laid the
foundation for the victory and saw the Dolphins lead
24-8. The Tigers never really looked capable of
making a come back in the second half and were held at
bay by Redcliffe's superb defence. The only
points scored in the second half were by Redcliffe
centre Jason Webber in the 61st minute and that
virtually wrapped up the game for the defending
premiers. They probably should scored more
points but failed to convert some of the opportunities
that came their way. Adam Mogg starred again for
the home side with two tries. Match
