July 4, 2018<\/strong><\/p>\n

Competition leaders USQ Cougars proved too strong at the end for the South Burnett Saints in their Darling Downs AFL game played in Toowoomba on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The game began evenly enough, with Cougars just one goal ahead at the end of the first quarter.<\/p>\n

At half-time, the home team had built up momentum, extending its lead to\u00a09.8 (62) to\u00a06.3 (39).<\/p>\n

The scoreline blew out in the the last quarter, with Cougars keeping the Saints goalless, although the visitors did land two behinds.<\/p>\n

The final score was USQ Cougars\u00a018.11 (119), South Burnett Saints 9.7 (61).<\/p>\n

Despite the loss, Saints are still holding down third spot on the ladder.<\/p>\n

The Saints’ women’s team also had a hard day at the office, kicking just two points in their match against the Cougars’ women.<\/p>\n

The final score was USQ\u00a017.15 (117), Saints\u00a00.2 (2).<\/p>\n

The South Burnett men’s next game is scheduled to be against the sixth-placed Warwick Redbacks at Warwick on July 14.<\/p>\n

The Saints’ women also have a break until July 14, when they will face South Toowoomba in Toowoomba.<\/p>\n

Footnote: The Saints’ annual Heritage Round, when players break out their old Kingaroy Bulldogs’ jumpers, will be played at Lyle Vidler Oval in Kingaroy on August 4.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
