Absolute ripper of a game at Kougari Oval, top quality between the top two teams. It was 10-all close to half time which was a good reflection of the match. Sunshine Coast managed opportunist tries against the run of play both sides of the break and this proved the difference in the end.
Wynnum trailed 10-30 during the second half but continued to give it their all and scored two tries in the last ten minutes for a final score of 30-20 to Sunshine Coast.
The Falcons are obviously a quality team but Wynnum certainly tested them. With their top forwards Max Elliott and Matiu Love-Henry missing and possibly Patrick Carrigan to return at some stage, Gulls fans will be giving them a chance should they meet in the finals series.
