TASMANIA'S mosquito fleet was outplayed at its own game by Frankston's super-quick band of brothers in their VFL clash at Aurora Stadium last night.
With the Anzac Day prize of the Alec Campbell Cup up for grabs, the Dolphins ran riot on the big Launceston battlefield, winning a fast and furious contest 11.10 (76) to 6.6 (42).
The Dolphins' bag of tricks included scintillating running and vice-like defence, while the Devils kicked their lowest score of the season.
"The Frankston boys certainly play for their footy club and their jumper, there's no doubt about that," said Devils coach Daryn Cresswell.
"They were terrific in the way they ran and worked so hard for each other.
"Our boys have got to take a leaf out of their book."
Cresswell is coming to the end of his tether with players that won't stick to the game plan.
