The second last round of the Queensland Cup aka Intrust Super Cup played out over the weekend, and it ended the runs out any team outside the Top 6 for a chance at the finals as the top 6 before the weekend became the top 6 for the finals. Mackay drew and Redcliffe lost, both were academic anyway as the Northern Pride won anyway.
The final series is shaping up to be a cracker with all teams capable of winning the competition, from the dominant Townsville, the unpredictable attacking Ipswich Jets, the ever present finals competitors Easts Tigers and Wynnum Seagulls, and the reigning premiers Northern Pride, even Gurgler favourites PNG Hunters.
You would have guessed by now visiting here that we have a sweet spot for the Hunters and their infectious style of rugby league. If you don’t know about the Hunters, here’s a piece from Nothing But League on them.
But as the season closes for the other teams this weekend, time to catch up with the second last blast of the Queensland Cup. Read about it courtesy of our friends at Nothing But League here.
