Perth Taipans v New England Celtic
New England have moved one step closer to securing the minor premiership today with a strong victory over a spirited Perth side playing for their finals existence.
The resurgent Reds would have been forgiven for thinking they were on track for a huge upset when they lead 16-8 in front of a vocal home crowd, but Celtic returned in the second half a side transformed and rampaged home with 30 unanswered points to record a 38-16 win. The win came from the forwards, where Beau Scott and Gavin Cooper out-muscled their more fancied opposition to move Celtic three points clear at the top.
Perth: Issac Luke, Jesse Bromwich, and Matt Cook. Hunt 2/3
New England: Josh Dugan, Joe Wardle, Morgan Escare, Gareth Widdop, Corey Oates, and Danny Houghton. Brough 7/7
HT Score: 16-8
Dally M: Beau Scott (Celtic) 3, Gavin Cooper (Celtic) 2, and Morgan Escare (Celtic) 1.

Roma Vandali v Ponte Preta Billy Goats
Roma's remarkable run of form has come to a grinding halt today as the Italian side were comprehensively routed by top eight aspirants, Ponte Preta. The unheralded Billy Goats produced the squad's best performance of the year with a 56-2 annihilation of a Roma side who looked completely out of their depth.
Roma: None. Thurston 1/1.
Ponte Preta: Jonny Lomax, Konrad Hurrell, Josh Hodgson, Daryl Clark, Stefan Ratchford 2, Dan Sarginson, Kieran Dixon, and John Bateman. Cherry-Evans 10/10
HT Score: 2-32

Brisbane Bulls v Ipswich Reds
There were no surprises in the FFBRL's Queensland derby today, with the Bulls keeping their minor premiership hopes alive with a confident 30-14 victory over a spirited but outgunned Ipswich. Adam Reynolds again haunted his former club, and looks all but assured of taking out this year's Dally M Player of the Year award with another starring performance.
Brisbane: Alex Johnston, Brett Morris, Adam Reynolds 2, and Sam Perrett. A. Reynolds 5/5
Ipswich: Mahe Fonua and Matt Prior. Gordon 1/1. Chase 2/2
HT Score: 16-8
Dally M: Adam Reynolds (Bulls) 3, Alex Glenn (Bulls) 2, and Josh Reynolds (Bulls) 1.

Grapes of Nanking v Quahog Quagmires
No surprises in Quahog's visit to Nanjing today, with the Chinese side barely raising a sweat in a 24-10 win over the struggling US side. With a pair of high profile players on the sideline, Nanking still looked like a well-drilled unit in their four tries to two victory.
Grapes: Gerard Beale 2, Blake Ferguson, and Ethan Lowe. Soward 4/4
Quahog: Jamal Idris and Sio Suia Taukeiaho. Wallace 1/2
HT Score: 12-4
Dally M: Gerard Beale (Grapes) 3, Thoms Leuluai (Grapes) 2, and George Burgess (Grapes) 1.

Machu Picchu Llamas v Shenzhen Sharkitohs
Machu Picchu might as well frame their wooden spoon now, with the South American side barely pressing Shenzhen today in front of a dismayed Peru crowd. The home side couldn't trouble the scorers at all, and their second half showing allowed Shenzhen to race away with a 32-0 win.
Machu Picchu: None.
Shenzhen: David Simmons, Tyrone Peachey, Kevin Locke, Matt Ballin, and Blake Austin. Parker 6/6
HT Score: 0-14
Dally M: Blake Austin (Sharkitohs) 3, Matt Duffie (Sharkitohs) 2, and Jeremy Latimore (Sharkitohs) 1.

Mu'a Saints v Sydney Vipers
Mu'a have today taken a huge step towards securing a place in the top four today with an emphatic 30-6 win over a Sydney side clearly rocked by their coach's recent absence while on a Mexican 'scouting' trip. A tense first half had things set up for an exciting second stanza, but the Saints came out with all guns blazing in the second half to turn a slender 8-6 advantage into a dominant 30-6 win.
Mu'a: Michael Jennings 2, Andrew Fifita, Corey Norman, and Craig Hall. Norman 2/2. Dobson 3/5
Sydney: Nathan Friend. Mullen 1/2
HT Score: 8-6
Dally M: Andrew Fifita (Saints) 3, Heath L'Estrange (Saints) 2, and Feliti Mateo (Saints) 1.

Raymond Terrace Tanks v South Canberra Knights
Two of the league's strugglers have produced the most entertaining game of the round, with South Canberra and Raymond Terrace both playing to keep their top eight dreams alive. In the end, South Canberra left their fight back too late and fell achingly short, while Raymond Terrace will consider themselves lucky to have escaped with a 26-24 win that sees them slip back into the top eight.
Raymond Terrace: David Shillington, William Hopoate, Greg Inglis, and Kurt Gidley. Gidley 5/5
South Canberra: John Sutton, Tim Mannah, and Alex Walmsley. Mantellato 5/5
HT Score: 14-10
