233 games. One club. One record. Josh Woolley stands alone

Some players pass through a club. Others become part of their fabric. Just look at Josh Woolley.

Woolley etched his name into Peninsula Power history, becoming the club's all-time appearance holder in a 2-0 victory over Rochedale Rovers on Saturday night.

Game number 233. A new record.

The former England Schoolboys representative has become synonymous with Peninsula Power since arriving in Australia, surpassing Jake Reesby's long-standing mark of 232 appearances.

Through title races, cup runs and countless battles in blue and white, Woolley kept showing up. Now he stands alone.

Hiroshi Miyazawa and Ethan Kovach ensured the milestone night ended with victory as Peninsula strengthened their grip on top spot in NPL QLD.

The leaders sit three points clear of Lions FC through 14 rounds, although their closest challengers still have a game in hand.

And Lions aren't going away.

After scoring five goals the previous week, Golden Boot leader Alexander Fiechtner somehow raised the bar again, netting a hat-trick in a ruthless 4-0 away victory over Brisbane City.

The prolific striker now has a staggering 26 goals in just 13 matches.

Elsewhere, third-placed Moreton City Excelsior were held to a scoreless draw by Eastern Suburbs, while Gold Coast Knights produced one of the performances of the round in a 5-2 victory over Olympic FC. Cody Nancarrow and Tyson Martin both scored doubles in the emphatic win.

Wynnum Wolves claimed a valuable 2-1 victory away to Gold Coast United, while Magic United edged Brisbane Roar NPL 2-1 to deepen the league's bottom side's struggles.
