Q-CUP 2025 Queensland Cup Discussion

[Hypex]

Berrigan Jnr has some real sting in his runs.

 

[1910]

Pei needs to reset, tell the Bears that's your worst half all year and but you're only down 4-0.

Dolphins need Fien to be reminded it's great kicking 40/20 and doing the great things but 7's don't drop two balls cold- do the simple things first.

Really strange half of football.

 

[Peter Day]

Innes speed makes all the difference

 

[Big Pete]

Bears draw first blood.

Quick hands from Watson, the ball stays in the air for an eternity only for Innes to race onto it, draw the winger and put Tonihi over in the corner.

Dream start for the Bears.

4-all.

 

[1910]

Innes gets the Bears a try, great pass. It wasn't great set up- Antonio nearly stuffed it up and Tonihi nearly collided with Innes but take it.

 

[Big Pete]

Much better half from Watson so far.

Lays on a vital pass in the Tonihi try and earns a goal line drop out off the kick-off set.

 

[1910]

Antonio gets Patea in goal- that's big.

Great run up the middle from Innes.

 

[Big Pete]

Watson out the back to Innes and Tonihi does his best Jesse Arthars impression.

Bears 8-4.

 

[1910]

Innes!

Another great pass- Tonihi a double.

 

[1910]

Dolphins getting up on Verhoeven and forgetting about Innes out the back.

 

[1910]

Great chase by Bryce and two tackles in a row- that's a big play to sprint down there like that.

 

[Big Pete]

Huge call by the official not to give that six-again to Fien.

Bears do well to hang on, Dolphins looked certain to hit back.

 

[Big Pete]

Great hands from McKay and Bowles dots down in the corner for the Dolphins.

8-all.

#14 Wynyard is making a big difference. Both him and Berrigan are tearing through the Bears middle third with ease.

 

[1910]

What a set, from your 20 to scoring in the corner- Coates and Trew got it all wrong but before that Bears middle is loose.

 

[Big Pete]

What a try to Watson!!

 

[Big Pete]

Innes fields a kick, puts Tonihi away down an edge, Tonihi pops the offload to Verhoeven who misses his first support runner but is able to find Watson who runs away from a pack of desperate Dolphins to score in the corner.

 

[1910]

Innes fields the long kick, puts Tonihi into space, finds Verhoeven who waits for the right option and Watson runs 40m to score.

Great support play.

 

[Big Pete]

It was a good thing Verhoeven missed his first support runner. I doubt #10 Igasan was going to get there.
