v Coolum Hammers W 7–1 
Four straight defeats. One brutal week. A 7-1 statement. Jared two-and-four, Aaron a brace, Christian immense for ninety minutes. Finals hopes very much alive — three to play, top four within reach.
Down a goal inside four minutes, level by eight, ahead by thirteen. Jared two and four assists, Aaron a brace, Christian Man of the Match — a complete response.
Three before the break, four by full time — Buddina's quality told. Paul's return from injury the bright spot; finals hopes now ride on a must-win run.
Jared's first-half hat-trick had United 3-1 up at the break, but Buderim hit back with four unanswered to win 5-3 — a third straight defeat that drops Caloundra out of the top four.
Beetroot, spinach, lemon, turmeric — and one Nutribullet loud enough to wake neighbouring suburbs. The midfield's worst-kept secret has finally come out.
Short on numbers, two early returns from injury, Brando in goal after going down himself — Caloundra lose 6-2 away but leave with the benchmark, and top four, intact.
No trials. No politics. Bring boots, shin pads, and a willingness to do the warm-up properly this time.
