Tigers roar back into the winner’s circle

Greg Davis 22/06/2025

“Just win, baby” The catchphrase of the late owner of the Oakland/LA/Las Vegas Raiders NFL team Al Davis rang true at Bottomley Park after the Stara Easts Tigers claimed a 45-29 win over Bond University in Round 12 of the StoreLocal Hospital Cup. The colourful and controversial Davis favoured substance over style. Winning was the only thing that mattered. Your job, was to get the job done. The bottom line was the scoreline. Simple. Just like the NFL standings, the Hospital Cup ladder does not contain a column for how attractive a victory appears. Pretty doesn’t count. Gritty does. After...

Easts go south in Battle of the Compass with Wests

Greg Davis 15/06/2025

To paraphrase the late, great US singer Meat Loaf, “don’t feel sad, nine out of 10 ain’t bad.’’ The Stara Easts Tigers suffered their first defeat in the StoreLocal Hospital Cup since 10 August 2024 when they fell to a 46-29 loss at the hands of Wests at Sci-Fleet Stadium in Round 11. The nine-game winning streak to open the 2025 title tilt came to an abrupt end for the high-flying Tigers as the Bulldogs piled on five tries after halftime to be the only team to lower Easts’ colours this season. Easts were without injured powerhouse no.8 Nuku Swerling,...

The stage is set for a genuine Old Boys Day Bottomley Park blockbuster against Brothers after the Stara Easts Tigers produced a heroic defensive display in the 26-22 victory over Souths in Round 6 of the StoreLocal Hospital Cup. It will be a top-of-the-table clash on David Wilson Field this Saturday when the unbeaten Tigers host the reigning premiers who also boast an undefeated record in 2025 with both sides to take a 5-0 record into the barn burner. They are the only two undefeated teams remaining in the Hospital Cup and have already put a gap between themselves and the rest...

Albo and the ALP were not the only team to enjoy a landslide victory on Saturday. Just as election booths around the country were greeting the last of voters in the Federal election, the Stara Easts Tigers were securing their seat inside the StoreLocal Hospital Cup top four with a 45-7 demolition of University. The Tigers remain unbeaten in 2025 with their fourth win from four outings and their third triumph from as many attempts at Bottomley Park as Easts piled on 38 unanswered points in the last hour. Easts had been out of action for the best part of three weeks due...

Easts 22 defeated Bond University 20 at Bond University IT was wet, wild and willing on the water-logged Gold Coast on Saturday afternoon. But cool, calm and collected co-captain Eli Pilz rose above the calamity to kick the Stara Easts Tigers to a gutsy 22-20 victory over Bond University. The Tigers remain undefeated in their 2025 StoreLocal Hospital Cup title tilt with their third-straight victory that was built on toughness and tenacity after torrential weather lashed Bond’s home ground to the point that the 3.05pm kick-off was pushed back. Pilz’s decisive penalty goal from 25 metres out and to the left of the...
