Cobras 17 – 2 Bradford
April 20, 2012 by admin
Cobras opened up their 2012 Summer Cup campaign with a 17-2 victory of Bradford Cannibals.
Cobras came flying out of the blocks scoring 4 goals in the first 8 minutes with markers for Fobres, Hogarth, Naylor and Florence. The first period saw Cobras camp in Bradford’s zone with Caddle in the Bradford net coming under a barrage of shots. From the relentless pressure, Cobras added a further 2 goals towards the end of the period to take a commanding 6-0 lead after one.
The second period started where we left off in the first period. Florence notched his third of the game with only 16 seconds on the clock to put the game to bed. Bradford to their credit carried on resiliently and after Staniforth replaced Smith in goal after 32 minutes, Kuffner took advantage scoring on the first shot against Staniforth. Cobras added 3 more before the period was out, leaving the scores 10-1 after two.
The final stanza saw Cobras further strengthen their lead adding four goals before Kuffner netted his second of the night with 10 minutes left on the clock to leave the scores at 14-2. The final ten minutes petered out as both teams began to show early season legs, with Cobras tallying a final 3 goals to take the final score to 17-2.
Notes:
Mark Florence was player of the game for Kingston with 4+8.
Mark Florence’s point total of 12 is his highest as a Cobra
Cobras penalty total of 2 minutes, matches their previous lowest total in a game. The opponent that day… Bradford Cannibals away in 2011.
The winning margin of 15 is Cobras second highest against Bradford. The highest being a 19-3 win in 2006.
