reds lose to rebels at suncorp

The St.George Queensland Reds have Greg holmes a fairytale send-off , with a 31-28 loss to the Melbourne Rebels at Suncorp Stadium

The Reds trailing 24-7 at half time. Queensland staged comeback in the second half, but were unable to clinch a win in with Ben Daley, Saia and Anthony Fainga’a, Liam Gill and Curtis Browning playing there last game at suncorp for the reds.

The Reds won the second half but paid the penalty for handing the Rebels too great a head start.

They trailed by three points with five minutes to go but were unable to score in the final minutes to win.

Scrumhalf Nick Frisby and stand-in captain Liam Gill both scored for the reds.

Queensland’s defensive sting was lacking, and the Rebels capitalised by using width in their attack.

Perhaps the only highlight of the first half was Queensland’s try which was started and finished by Frisby.

Gill’s first try sparked a comeback, and it was game for grabs after Samu Kerevi made his way over the chalk.

The fightback lost its momentum, however, when Nic Stirzaker scored a try from a charged down kick.

blackhawks loss

It was a difficult day  Blackhawks on Sunday as they went down to the Souths Logan Magpies by 18 points at Davies Park in Brisbane.

The lack of consistency got the better of the visitors as the young Broncos players at the Magpies dominated the match.

Round 6 Tweed Head Seagulls v Northern Pride.

A COURAGEOUS defensive performance in the first 15 minutes was the catalyst for Tweed Heads Seagulls continuing on their winning in their round 6 Queensland Rugby league Intrust Cup clash with Northern Pride .

Pride dominated the possession during that opening periods they had ball-carriers pulled down within a metre of the Seagulls try line on more than one occasion .

It truly was a memorable defensive performance by the home side which, after weathering the onslaught, finally got their fair share of possession and subsequently field position to enable them to run in four tries to take what appeared to be an unassailable 24-0 in the sheds at half-time.

Northern Pride ensured it was a nail-biting finish by posting three tries after the break, the final touchdown with three minutes still on the clock.

Corey Blair had a match to remember – he shouldn’t have had to put his hand into his kick to buy a beer at the post-match function.

Seagulls 24 (Tom Merritt 3, Matt Carbutt tries; Brad Davis 4 goals) def Northern Pride 22 (Daniel Crampton, Scott Gibson, Ty Williams, Ben Spina tries; Chey Bird 3 goals).
