In week 2 action, the Jetmaster Heat & Glo Croydon Rangers Stuart Thompson Landscapes Colts battled the Geelong Buccaneers at Ballarat, with both teams looking for their first win of the season.
The Rangers opened up the game immediately, scoring on the first play from scrimmage with Quarterback Tom Taylor throwing a bomb to Majny “Magic” Majing, giving the Rangers an early lead.
The Rangers defence continued their strong second half efforts from week one, and set the tone early in the match, keeping the Bucs scoreless in the first half. Rookie Oskar Huber was a menace, disrupting the backfield and recording multiple sacks.
A second TD hook-up between Taylor and Majing had the Rangers in control at the half.
The second half saw the game turn. The Buccaneers, offense got going and had several opportunities to get back in the game, but the Rangers defence continued to dig deep.
Additionally, QB Taylor was injured, resulting in Majing moving to QB for the first time as a Ranger. Majing settled well into the role, and made several big plays at QB including a clutch QB keep touchdown in the last quarter to give the Rangers the win, 20-16.
Next week, the Colts return to Ranger Field with a 1030am Sunday match up against the Royals who defeated Geelong 24-6 in Round 1.
