Tigers pipped in a classic

The Rococo Noosa Tigers have been pipped by just over two goals in a see sawing encounter against Morningside on ‘Ladies Day’ in front of a string pro home crowd to remain winless after three rounds of the 2023 season. The Mitch Robinson led Panthers just finished that little bit better to inflict yet another slight but costly defeat on the home side side who now face arch rivals Maroochydore this Saturday on Anzac weekend at Fisherman’s Road. Maroochydore also winless after two honorable losses to start their 2023 campaign. With such a varied playing list in terms of personnel, the Noosa boys are starting to gel together and will look forward to another classic encounter against this strong Sunny Coast rival. It goes without saying that a big crowd will certainly descend at Maroochy’s home base as one of these teams will open their accounts in this highly skilled QAFL competition.

Ofcourse the Senior game will be live streamed through our ‘tiger tv’ Facebook page from 2pm.

On a massive positive is the early form of our Tait Niddrie coached Reserve Grade team who have won three from three to start their 2023 campaign, which certainly shows that the Tigers have depth in their list with several putting their hands up for selection week in and week out. Our colts were beaten by a very well drilled Panther outfit but continue to show up and have a crack. Great stuff boys.

Our Senior women open their season against 2022 Grand final opponents Pine Rivers in Brisbane this Saturday from 4.45pm as the Peter Trompf coached women aiming at four in a row.

Our Noosa Tigers Youth teams also begin their season this Sunday so a big ‘Good Luck’ to all those representing the mighty Noosa Tigers this weekend.

A big thank you to all those who helped organise our Ladies Day last weekend and especially to our ‘gun’ photographer Craig Slaney from Craig Slaney Sports photography for providing us so many awesome images of the Noosa Tigers week in and week out.
