In warm conditions, our Tigers blew the contest apart with a 10 goal to 1 opening quarter burst that paved the way to an 80 point victory
With Punky Brewster again in the thick of it with 7 goals and Azza Laskey, Pete Trompf and Adam eady leading the way, Noosa took the Derby in emphatic fashion.
Outscored by the Roos in the second quarter, our boys put the foot down again in the second half to add 11 goals to 5 and give the boys confidence going forward.
Great to see Toddy Panoho's continued improvement with his 'smokin' 3 goal performance which is his highest tally in a Noosa jumper, while evergreen's Gary Wallace and Nate Winter were also impressive performers.
They wont all be that easy but a great effort by the boys
