An all-in brawl erupted, with both teams coming together in a melee. Moments after the referees had finally regained order, the fight erupted again between Scott and McAllister. Both players were subsequently sent to the sin bin. In the 12th minute, Redcliffe opened the scoring through winger Aaron Barba. It was a dominant first half for the Dolphins, who led 22–0 at half time after tries to Bara (his second), Damien Richters and Barry Berrigan added tries. Second half Three minutes into the second half, Redcliffe pushed their lead to 28 when winger Phil Shilvock scored, the try all but wrapping up the game. Ipswich finally got on the scoreboard in the 49th minute when winger Steven West latched onto a Ricky Bird grubber. Redcliffe scored again in the 61st minute, when a pinpoint Shane Perry chip kick found Trent Leis, who scored in his third Grand Final. Jets' centre Aaron Bulow scored seven minutes later but the game was well out of reach for Ipswich, as Redcliffe secured their third premiership. Dolphins' hooker Barry Berrigan was named man of the match. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRBLVjm_dBQ 2002 QLD Cup Grand Final Redcliffe 34 v Ipswich 10 YouTube 27 January 2020 29 August 2021 https://web.archive.org/web/20210829123611/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RRBLVjm_dBQ live The victorious Redcliffe side featured two players who would play in the Brisbane Broncos 2006 NRL Grand Final win over the Melbourne Storm, with Shane Perry starting at halfback and David Stagg starting at centre in the victory.https://leagueunlimited.com/news/the-grand-final-that-queensland-built/ The Grand Final That Queensland Built? » League Unlimited 27 January 2020 27 January 2020 https://web.archive.org/web/20200127091929/https://leagueunlimited.com/news/the-grand-final-that-queensland-built/ live Player statistics Leading try scorers PosPlayerTeamTries1Dan KennedyBurleigh 16 Burleigh Bears342Aaron BarbaRedcliffe 16 Redcliffe Dolphins283Brian JellickRedcliffe 16 Redcliffe Dolphins21Elia TuqiriToowoomba 16 Toowoomba Clydesdales215Nick ParfittToowoomba 16 Toowoomba Clydesdales19 Leading point scorers PosPlayerTeamTGFGPts1Damien RichtersRedcliffe 16 Redcliffe Dolphins10103-2462Greg BourkeBurleigh 16 Burleigh Bears1777-2223Scott ThorburnBalmain 16 East Coast Tigers108112034Cameron SmithNorths Devils 16 Norths Devils876-1845Justin McKayNorth Queensland 16 North Queensland Young Guns8751183 End-of-season awards Courier Mail Medal: Scott Thorburn (Balmain 16 Easts Tigers) Rookie of the Year: David Stagg (Redcliffe 16 Redcliffe Dolphins) See also Queensland Sports Queensland Cup Queensland Rugby League References note Category:2002 in Australian rugby league Category:Queensland Cup
