A triumphant Diggers side
after receiving the Archem Premier League premiership trophy.

Rob Asnicar is a colourful character for sure, take Friday's third div match for example. The whistleblower on taking to the field felt his shirt clashed with that of North Bundaberg who were warming up. Back to the shed for the yellow one. Oops that clashed with Diggers, oh well let's try the blue one. Nice one 'Rainbow'

Vince Habermann was happy with his performance in the Bridge to Brisbane 10km run on Sunday, recording a time of 52.17 placing 3763rd out of about 30,000.

In the Archem Premier League, the 7 clubs had 81 different goal scorers, ATW the most with 14 Moore Park the least with 9. Diggers duo Nick Maas and Michael Stayte scored 50 between them..

To the Moore Park ladies who felt Bingera's forfeit on Friday denied their players a chance at the 'Golden Boot'. Bingera also forfeited to BAV earlier in the season.

Diggers and Moore Park clash in Qualifying Final in div. 1 and the Elimination Final in div 2 which will allow supporters to watch both games.

A big performance from Diggers who went undefeated during the premiership rounds. Diggers have also proved to be the best disciplined, if cards are the selection criteria. No reds and less yellows than any other club.

Brenton Walk had his first win in our Foxsports Fantasy League with a win over Michael Stayte over the weekend. Your turn this weekend MS.

Brothers Aston Villa and North Bundaberg have both made the semis in every age group they contested, an outstanding effort by all concerned. While the two Clubs have not had the same success in the senior divisions this year, both must have high hopes for the future.

Brothers Aston Villa Secretary Kayleen Bryan said The "Club was proud of the achievement of their junior teams being in the semi-finals of every age group they have contested. She added "This outcome was the result of the dedicated efforts of the many players, parents and supporters of the Club who have taken on positions of coaches and managers to contribute to the development of their junior players. We wish them every success in their finals.”

North Bundaberg President Ian Clarke also ecstatic with his Clubs achievements said "North Bundaberg Eagles Football Club in its 40th year has grown from 167 players in 2009 to 279 players in 2010". "Our club is the only club with a junior team in every division and are very proud of our players, Coaches and Managers who this year have bought every Junior competition team to the semi finals". Ian concluded "On behalf of the executive I wish our teams all the best as they progress towards the finals".

Moore Park  keeper Brenton Walk
was unable to save Harry Gray's penalty shot on Saturday.

Former Bundaberg goalkeeper Mitch Langerak, now playing his trade with Borussia Dortmund in Germany is in the running for the Harry Kewell Medal for best under-23 player in the Professional Footballers Association's 2010 Footballer of the Year awards. The winner will be announced at a gala in Sydney on October 7th. Others in the running include Robbie Kruse, Tommy Oar and Dario Vidosic,

Diggers were at times brilliant on Saturday, and their drubbing of last years grand final winners Bingera has certainly put them in the box seat for end of season honours. The first twenty minutes in which they scored three goals was simply outstanding. For some reason they seemed to sense that victory was assured and seemed happy with the 3-0 score line at half time. When Bingera scored first in the second half Diggers were quick to respond and to their credit finished the match with an intensity that would have pleased coach Nathan Darlington, by scoring a further six goals in the second half for a comprehensive 9-2 win. Bingera had no answer to the Diggers onslaught and will have to back up against Waves ion the elimination semi against a resurgent Waves minus Normie Wales who was red carded during the match after a clash with Diggers five goal hero Nick Maas.

Moore Park, minus a number of their regular first graders will have to improve on their draw with a depleted Brothers Aston Villa. Villa who were beaten by Bingera in last years grand final have missed out on September action by a single point. Villa coach Peter Bock said "It was sad we missed out on the finals but overall it wasn’t a bad season". "A defensive error saw us down early but an early goal in the second half from Harry Gray gave us a chance". "Josh McGinnis and Kyle Taylor in the midfield were strong in both defence and attack and Mal Cooper, Ashley Taylor and Harry Gray along with young keeper Sam Collinson also had good games".
