ST MARY’S import Jackson Braunthal <\/strong>filled his boots in Round 16 of the NTFL Men’s Premier League, as the Green Machine notched a thumping win over Darwin. Among his league-high 38 disposals, Braunthal registered top-five hauls for kicks (24), handballs (14), marks (nine), and inside 50s (seven).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

>> ROUND WRAP:<\/strong> Tigers roar into second chance spot<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Braunthal’s captain Dylan Landt<\/a> also stuffed the stats sheet, gathering 34 disposals and highs of 26 kicks, 13 clearances, and 10 inside 50s. Saints VFL coup Curtis McCarthy <\/strong>was among the goals too, booting five. Only Southern Districts forward Beau Schwarze <\/strong>outgunned him this weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Schwarze’s bag of seven against Wanderers – who went without a major score for the match – was enough to put him clear atop the competition’s goalkicking charts. Ex-AFL mids Jed Anderson<\/strong> and <\/strong>Quinton Narkle<\/a> snared three each, while Willie Rioli<\/strong> was one of three to do the same for Tiwi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Elsewhere, Lucas Gray <\/strong>was a standout for Waratah in its loss to Nightcliff, registering four of his side’s nine goals. The Tigers were served well by Petros Politis<\/a>, who had a round-high 17 handballs, along with Brandan Parfitt<\/a> (14) and Mitchell Trewhella <\/strong>(seven clearances) in midfield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A few players worked overtime in defeat. Bradley Stokes<\/strong> racked up 14 rebound 50s for Darwin, while Joel Hillis<\/strong> and Robert Turnbull<\/strong> laid eight tackles each for Waratah. Jayden Davey<\/a> also starred in Palmerston’s defeat to Tiwi, notching 30 disposals and 11 rebound 50s.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
