Coolangatta are finally on the board after surviving a late scare against Springwood at Lowe Oval in Brisbane.
The Blues took the match 14-8(92) to 12-17(89) after leading most of the way. But when Springwood grabbed a 10 point lead late in the final quarter, things were looking glum.
Half-forward, Papua New Guinean John James, provided the thrust that put the Blues back in front, but they still had to agonise over tough after-siren goal attempt from springwood.
Blues defenders Wade Maxwell and Matt Boyd were outstanding.
