The Toowoomba Clydesdales have continued their
unbeaten start to the season with a 44-30 win over
tenacious Burleigh at ANZ Stadium. The win gave former
Broncos hero Kevin Walters a successful start to his
coaching career.
The Clydesdales started sensationally in the first
half, with tries scored by Brent Tate, Ken McGuinness
and Casey McGuire in the opening 15 minutes for a 16-0
lead. But Burleigh fought back with tries to Dean
Allen and Ali Brown to be within four points after 25
minutes.
However, Toowoomba consolidated, scoring magic tries
through wingers Damien Quinn and Tony Duggan for a
28-12 lead at the break. The Clydesdales' penchant for
keeping the ball alive reaped dividends, with both
Quinn and Duggan capitalising on brilliant lead up
play.
An early try in the second half looked to signal a
continue of the rout, McGuire's second putting them
ahead 34-12. But once again the Bears, on the back of
some Toowoomba mistakes and a run of penalties from
Adam Neale, got back into the contest. Tries to Tony
Gray, Nick Shaw and Adam Hayden had them within four
points with almost 20 minutes remaining, and the
normally rock solid Toowoomba defence was looking
paper thin.
A Burleigh mistake was all that was needed, however.
Elia Tuqiri, cousin of Broncos winger Lote Tuqiri and
in his first season of rugby league after switching
from rugby union, scored close to the posts with 13
minutes remaining to seal victory. A try in the final
minute to Quinn and his sideline conversion gave him a
match tally of 20 points and the Clydesdales their
sixth win of the season.
