At a venue where more experienced and better equipped Qbn teams have struggled the Tigers produced a pretty solid performance to run out 20-3 to 14-9 winners.
As a spectacle it was much better than last seasons 17 man flood effort, this was more open which made for some attractive football.
Tuggers threatened on occasions but they could never close the gap to any dangerous amounts.
Best for Tigers was Cook who excited across half back, Quade was strong in the air, Stevens showed poise and class, Fruend and Campbell, were dangerous up forward, Heaslip is just an dead set goer and a new player Bull has all the qualities to be a game breaker.
For Tuggers their best was clearly Smith across half back, Pocock did well to kick 4, Masters tried hard as did Lamb and Cleaver got better as the game got longer but too much left to too few.
On the whole the Tigers were physically to big and strong for the plucky hawks but they have added pace to their list was was a weapon they have not had in the past.
Good game of football and the better team on the day prevailed.
