The Rococos Noosa Tigers Colts have it themselves into a QAFL Prrliminary Final after a tough grinding victory over a gallant Wilston Grange at Aspley last Saturday. The Tigers trailed at the main break after what was a very error riddled first half and after a good old fashioned spray from coach Greg Brain the intensity surrounding the Noosa boys lifted immensely. The move of star onballer Jai Mure to the forward line was a master stroke as the explosive play maker bamboozled his opponents booting three second half goals to be the match winner. Smooth moving playmaker Archie Shannon was a constant throughout the entire contest with his silky skills and elusive run whilst the hard working Foxx La Monica continues to do the team thing and play his role to the letter. Riley Mackay was dangerous whenever he touched the footy whilst co skipper Will Cooke was a tower across half back the entire day.
‘Juice’ Delaney Taylor was brave and blocking throughout whilst the second half of Wispa Brain was Harris Andrews-like as the 16 year old showed the poise and tempo levels of a much more experienced campaigner.
All in all a wonderful win for this very impressive group of young men who now face Morningside at Redlands this Saturday from 11.30 am. Very exciting times!
Bar is open this Thursday from 4.30pm as the Tiger faithful watch the colts go through their paces before the big game.
Game will be live streamed through our ‘Tiger TV’ facebook page with commentary for those that can’t get to Redlands.
Go Tigers
