Derek Rucker – Gladstone Port City Power Men
“It is an exciting time to the Power Men’s team as a result of our victory over Cairns that assured us a playoff position. I thought it was our best victory of the season given the circumstances and I was pleased with our defensive effort over the four quarters.
“The team is confident and attentive this week as we begin our playoff preparations. There were a lot of happy faces from long time supporters of the Power program when we qualified on Sunday. The players were thrilled to have made so many people happy.
“I have been quite impressed with the QBL this season. The standard of play is better than I had anticipated and it’s a tremendous challenge as a coach and chairman to get everything in the program working at its full potential. We have plenty of work to do yet but I’m more than happy with the results to date.”
