ROUND 14
  SOUTHS 16; BRISBANE 4 at Sydney Football Stadium
   
  Souths’ makeshift pack stood tall at the Sydney Football Stadium and crushed the Brisbane Broncos in Sydney’s first bout of Friday night football in 1988.
   
  Darren Maroon and David Hosking, shoring up the front row in the absence of Ian Roberts and Les Davidson paved the way for one of Souths’ most complete victories of the season.
   
  Coach George Piggins acclaimed the first half effort of the side as the best in is three-year reign at the club.
   
  Souths led 16-0 and the match was all but over.
   
  Behind the pack, the developing half-five-eighth combination of Phil Blake and Craig Coleman,were clear winners over Queensland’s State of Origin pairing of Wally  Lewis and Allan Langer.
   
  Blake and Coleman found willing supporters with their wide passes and Blake’s 70-metre dash from a scrumbase to score after 36 minutes rubbed salt  into Bronco wounds.
   
  SOUTHS 16 (Longbottom, O’Neil, Blake tries; Ellison 2 goals) defeated BRISBANE 4 (Le Man try)
