Michael Nunn THE Ipswich Jets conquered their first win of the season in fine style against the CQ Capras. The Jets held the ball for huge amounts of time and the Capras chased the Jets all over the field trying to stop the momentum. Ipswich had the ball for 31 minutes compared to the Capras 16. The Jets completed their sets and Josh Cleelands kicking game was a thing of beauty as he turned the Capras around and got the Jets five repeat sets.

Michael Nunn ITS Rivalry Round this week in the Intrust Super Cup and I am not going to try and talk down our competitiveness against the Easts Tigers.

Theyre the neighbour that comes over for a BBQ but brings terrible beer and drinks your Balters. The Tigers are the neighbour that doesnt bring your bin in when he gets his or collect your mail while you are away. The Tigers hav...

I was very happy with the first 40 minutes," Lander said. "...

Footy great Bob Kellaway. Picture: Seven Sport Sport 24th Feb 2021 6:30 AM Premium Content Michael Nunn IN the 1980s in Brisbane Rugby League, Bob Kellaways role was to truck it up for Souths, Brothers and the Jets. The lanky front rower did it for over a decade and played two Origin games for Queensland in a startling career. I braced for impact and poured a beer with Kellaway. How did you get to Souths?

Michael Nunn ON Saturday night, the Ipswich Jets will be off to the Sunshine Coast to try to wound the Falcons in their first trial game of 2021. Trials are a tricky beast to tame. You do not want injuries but you want players to start to blow out the cobwebs and have a run. The Jets will play the Sunshine Coast in all four grades with all four Jets coaches having things they will be looking for when they are driving home on Saturday night.
