The Roos kicked of their 2016 campaign with a comfortable win over Moreton Bay at the weekend. After a rusty start the Roos eventually took control of the contest to run out 90 point winners in a scoreline that probably flattered the victors.
A vastly improved Moreton Bay created plenty of forward entry thrusts however will be rueing innacuracy in front of the big sticks, kicking 4.17 for the match.
The highlight of the game being Stirto's 50m..... 55m.... 60m.... 65m... 75m goal backed up with an opposite foot snap a few minutes later.
In other QFA North clashes, Noosa downed defending champs Mayne by 20 points; while Aspley took the 4 points over Caloundra after Caloundra's score was reset to zero when a head count revealed they had 19 players on the field 30 seconds into the last quarter. However, the match was a tight affair with Caloundra holding a 9 point lead at the time of the infringment.
This week will see Maroochydore take on Mayne at home.
