Canberra set for the League finals

Sun, 29/08/2010 - 15:01 — Admin

Canberra HC ended the premiership with another win over Hills Heat 26:24 (15:10 at the break), yesterday in Sydney. Canberra will now need to wait till the end of the quarterfinals, next weekend, to find out their semi-final opponents.

This game was trivial only for Canberra as it would not have had an impact on the final standings. Canberra took the opportunity to trial new-comer Lazar Spirovski, who recently moved to Australia from his native Macedonia. Lazar settled into the match quickly, top scoring for the team with 8 goals. The 26 year-old back will not be able to take part in the finals though, as he doesn't meet the minimum of 3 league games required to qualify.
