TWEED HEADS v EASTS TIGERS
Piggabeen Sports Complex Sunday, May 1 ? 3.30pm
Easts Tigers coach Troy McCarthy will return to Piggabeen on Sunday, but this time around he will be in enemy territory. McCarthy was at the helm when the southernmost Queensland Cup side won the competition in 2007. The Tigers will be hoping he has some inside knowledge to help beat the as yet undefeated Tweed Heads side. The Tigers may have only recorded the one win so far, but have gone close a number of times, including a 16-16 draw with Ipswich in round 1. Their task to return from their away trip with the two points has been made all the more difficult with creative halfback Luke Kelly missing from this week?s line-up with a groin injury. Tweed Heads will welcome back electric fullback Shannon Walker from suspension. Hard-working Tweed forward Selasi Berdie will also make his return to the side and it comes at just the right time following the loss of Ryan Simpkins (hamstring). Head-to-head, the Tigers have won nine games while Tweed Heads have won eight.
