Southport ended the vulture juggernaut in emphatic fahion on saturday. A 9 goal to 1 second quarter ripped the guts out of the vultures winning chances in this one. The first quarter was a tight and hard struggle for both sides with no one looking like their could be a game breaking moment and the scores were tied at 3-4 a piece. But southports midfield clicked into gear and ripped the vultures apart in the second qaurter led by a brilliant matthew payne who had a field day in the second quarter and not one could stop him running a muck. At half time the vultures got an absolute spray from coach lake and i don't think i have ever heard him give them a spray like that before and well it didn't help too much in the third quarter. Both teams kicked 2 goals each with the vutlures have more of the play, but just didn't convert their opportunities like the sharks did in the second and the writing was on the wall for the vultures and they needed to pull on out of their arse to win this game of footy. Crowley went to the old chestnut at 3 quarter time and reminded his players about last years preliminary final where the vulture came from behind to beat the sharks. He told his chargers to burry them and they did in the end with a 6 goal to 2 quarter and sent the vultures packing and put themselves into another prelim final against the panthers who lost a thriller to the labrador tigers.
