The fleet footed Magpies overwhelmed the Tigers on Sat winning every quarter to post an impressive 9 goal victory. The Tigers hung in the contest all day but simply couldn't sustain the effort against a superior opponent on the day. Despite the midfield providing terrific drive out of the middle through Paterson and Stevenson, the Magpies defence proved hard to crack and rebounded effectively. Housego proved to be a shining light for the under siege defensive line repelling many Magpies forays forward and Tom Falconer continued his impressive return from a long injury layoff. The focus now turns to the improving Pumas outfit on Saturday with the Tigers desperate for the 4 points.
