The Prince gets meat and chopsticks.

Try#11 for the season for Junior Laloifi.

Brisbane 16 Vikings 5 after McIntyre converts from in front - 32 minutes gone.

Playing surface at Viking Park is looking as pretty as a picture. Good looking crowd (for an NRC game).

Vikings have the bulk of the possession, but Brisbane City are making the most of their limited opportunities..

No change to the score at oranges.
Clever play by City to force a truck and trailer on the Vikings lineout maul. The Politicians will need to lift their game in the second half, particularly their accuracy, but they are facing a fairly impressive stonewall defence from Brisbane.

Scoring Detail to Oranges.
Brisbane City 24 (P. Paraka (11), J. Laloifi (31), B. Hyne (37) tries: J. McIntyre (12), (32), (37) cons) leading Canberra Vikings 5 (J. Butler (3) try).

Adam Korczyk has gone off at half time. Luke Beauchamp is on.

KHunt opens the ledger for City after 90 seconds, and guess who adds the extras? 100% off the tee today for the Alstonville Kid.

With Jake McIntyre kicking like he is, and Sam Greene playing fullback this week, the picture of who will play 5/8 for the Reds in 2016 is coming slightly clearer.

OMG. Pushover tighthead try to Vikings.

No. Sir decides it was a knock on. Penalty to Vikings anyway.

40 seconds left.

It is down to a scrum for the game, minor premiership and the H-L Shield. Does it get any better than this?

Scrum reset. Vikings feed, 5 metres out. The hooter has gone.

Crowd tipped at 3000 ish.

11 phases and going. Discipline vs power. 83 minutes gone.

Turnover to Brisbane under the sticks. Ref has had enough and blows for no game.

Brisbane City win the Game & the Minor Premiership, The Horan - Little Shield. Awesome comeback from the Canberra team.

Full Time Result.
Brisbane City 37 (P. Paraka (11), J. Laloifi (31), B. Hyne (37) K. Hunt (41) L. Gill (64) tries: J. McIntyre (12), (32), (37) (42) cons) leading Canberra Vikings 31 (J. Butler (3) R. Abel (48) R.. Iona (53), A. Anae (59) L. Lealua-iali'i-Makin (69) tries: C. Leali'ifano (49) (70) con).
