The North Queensland Gold Stars made in three wins on the trot with a dominant 30-4 win over the Brisbane Tigers at Jack Manski Oval on Saturday afternoon.

Off the back of a double from Katie Green and a crafty long-range try by Emma Manzlemann, the Gold Stars raced out to a 14-0 lead after just 15 minutes.

Having already set one up, the Hastings Deering Player of the Match Romy Teitzel crossed for one of her own shortly after to send the Gold Stars into the break with a 20-point lead.

Despite a much-improved second half by the Tigers, the home side sealed their third straight victory with tries to Manzlemann and Jasmine Peters after the break.

To Brisbane’s credit, they continued to pepper the Gold Stars line in the second half, before some quick hands resulted in Sierra Maple crossing for the Tigers first points of the match.

The Tigers will host the Central Queensland Capras at Totally Workwear Stadium for their Round 5 match – Saturday 8th May, 6pm. This match will form part of a double header, with the Valkyries v North Queensland Gold Stars round 5 clash also being played at Totally Workwear Stadium, 4:00pm.
