Geez we're play crap now. Brainfades galore. Only out backline holding up via Gray and El Nour.

Goals: Raso 3, Yassine 2, Ryan, Rioli, Faull, Alger, Sims, McKenzie


A quarter of two halves. We came out after the main break asleep, and play spent most of the time in Brisbane's forward half. Fortunately, our backline held up. Then that Brisbane turnover from a kick-in which gifted Alger's goal woke us up and we slammed on 4 goals in a row.
