Heyward who takes pride in the defensive qualities of the sides he manages noted, "we've conceded 7 goals all season, none against sides lower than us. We've got Canberra City next week and it gives us the chance to establish ourselves in the top four."

Queanbeyan's push up the table continues. Coach Goran Neveski, who is leaving the club for the rest of the season to visit family overseas, was happy with the win.

Sixth Grade: Tuggers v Uni Canberra Pumas
Meanwhile lower, much lower, down the Leagues Nearpost Football experts, Russ Gibbs and Chris Gottaas's sides battled it out.
Russ Gibbs said, "Football was the winner on the day, I scored one, you got that, and Chris didn't turn up to play. Injured or got a sniffle or something. But he was there on the sideline watching his team go down. Tuggers Div 6 beat UC Pumas 2-0, put that on your blog. Our resident Kiwi Api Pou scored the other."
"And I've got ligament trouble, but still made it on the field for the 9th Grade side later in the day. I scored a hat-trick in that one! Ben Morphy got two. We beat ADFA 5-2. We had a minutes silence for the ADFA's boy's involved in the crash during the week. They really are a great group of lads the ADFA guys," said Russ.
Tuggers Uber Coach Steve Beattie was reported to be very pleased with the third win on the spin.

very inaccurate and poorly written article that failed to even get the divisions involved correct...... i understand about free speech but accuracy in media is important and this article can only be damaging to the game!
I'm sure if you check the match report TUGGIES div 3 had a very enjoyable 5-1 loss to weston creek in a good spirited match..... PICK YOUR GAME UP or remove this shambles of an article
Having checked up on the news, you are completely correct....Tuggies Div 3 played a wonderfully spirited game as you point out.
Mea Culpa mea culpa to all in Tuggies Div 3.
Picking my game up as we speak.
And thanks for the correction.
