After a disappointing 46-point loss away against Sandringham the previous week, the Tigers were looking to open their account for season 2010 against a Gold Coast team brimming with young talent.

The Coasters' youth and enthusiasm shone through as they played a cleaner and more consistent brand of football to hold onto a 25-point lead at the first change.

Accuracy in front of goal was also an issue for the Tigers as several easy shots were sprayed, allowing Gold Coast to lead by 22-points at half-time.
