The Roccocos Bar and Bistro Noosa Tigers have smashed what seemed to be a pretty depleted Yeronga by over 20 goals in a glorious afternoon at Weyba Rd last Saturday.
The win consolidates the Noosa teams ladder leading position where they share top position with Sunshine Coast rivals Maroochydore. Whilst the South Brisbane outfit started the game with a fair bit of pressure and work rate, from quarter time onwards it was just all the Tigers. Football manager Mitch Woods was the outstanding player on the ground collecting 31 touches in an almost flawless skilful display. Woods repelled many of Yeronga’s attacking moves with skill and precision and even chimed in with 3 majors to make his afternoon memorable. Gun recruit Tyler Stack just ran the legs off two or three opponents as the skilful midfielder helped himself to 31 touches in a terrific display of footy. Powerhouse on-baller Tom Templeton again showcased his class bagging a lazy five goals from the centre whilst big Jake Stewart continues to impress at centre half forward and with cameos in the ruck.
Skipper Aaron Laskey was amongst the best players again as usual with another superb display picking up 29 disposals for the match. All in all it was a complete Tiger domination with a pretty tricky meeting against Caloundra at Caloundra this Saturday. The Panthers sit 3rd in the Hart Sport Division 1 ladder and with ex Noosa player Steve Moody at the helm; the boys know they will come out firing. Making the game even more special is that both teams play for the Wayne ’Dozer’ Dover Memorial shield. Wayne (of course) having been a senior premiership player at Noosa before coaching Caloundra post playing days. A great bloke who certainly left a positive mark on both clubs.
Best of luck to all our tiger junior teams playing this weekend and see you all down at Caloundra on Saturday.
