‘You’ve got to keep your focus’: Newman says Ospreys are not finals bound just yet
The equation for Southern United is quite simple as they aim to make the Coastal Premier League Men’s finals in their inaugural season.

Ospreys growing in confidence with finals around the corner
It’s funny what a couple of wins will do to a football team.

Crunch time fast approaching for Port Saints ahead of Port Macquarie derby
