Last year’s premiers, Redcliffe Dolphins, with the Bye this weekend will remain alone at the top of In Safe Hands Cup after this weekend’s round 15 fixtures. Hot on their heels are five clubs within four points of each other and Logan Brothers who are still in the hunt for finals contention.

Logan v Easts

Logan Brothers will take on the Easts Tigers brimming with confidence after last week’s convincing win against Wynnum Manly, taking it 38-28. The Easts Tigers held off the West Brisbane Panthers for a 16-all draw last weekend on the back of their loss to Wynnum the week before.

Logan Brothers received a touch-up against the Tigers last time these two sides met. However, the Brethren are building confidence and belief and will look to pounce on a Tigers outfit that is stuttering after a five-game winning streak.

The Brethren will need to be at their ball-hungry best again this weekend against Easts. The Tigers have the capability of putting 50-plus points on sides who are not at their best.

Logan need to win all of their remaining games to make the top five and after last week it’s not out of their capabilities. They will take the field with the same 17 from last week.

Easts were equal top two weeks ago and now sit amongst five teams separated by four points. They also have a relatively unchanged side from last week.

Both sides have venomous backlines from one to seven and this should be a ripper.

Wests v Valleys

West Brisbane Panthers rivalry continues this weekend at Emerson Park with the Valleys Diehards. The boot of Wests No.6 Kane Zalewski salvaged a draw against Easts last week after the Tigers scored four tries to Wests three in their drawn game.

Valleys are looking to return to the winner’s circle after back-to-back losses to the Dolphins and the Jets in the past fortnight, while the Panthers have played out two draws with Easts and Logan Brothers on either side of a bye in the past three weeks.

Both sides have a rumbling forward pack, Wests with Erik Koelbel and Jarrod Blanke up against the Diehards line-breakers Troyden Watene and Tama Koopu.

Ipswich v Wynnum Manly

Bright and early on Sunday for the Ipswich Jets, Wynnum Manly Seagulls clash on Sunday with kick-off at 10.15am at Davies Park.

The Jets come off a bye while Wynnum Manly are still looking for answers after Logan took two homeground points off the Seagulls last week at Kougari Oval.

Ipswich had only finalised their team the morning of their previous game at Laidley against Valleys two weeks ago.

A similar predicament for the Seagulls who required players from the game before to settle on a final 17 last Saturday afternoon.

The Seagulls have the same backline that is yet to explode in attack, they will also need to be at their defensive best against the Jets who can score from their own dead ball line.
