Queensland Kennel Club Championship Show, June 2002 - Challenge Dog & Best of Breed.
Judge: Mr J Roger Pugh (Rocellio - UK) who said:
 "I had the pleasure of going over this dog some six months ago when I Judged at the Parent Club’s Championship Show in the U.K. I placed him then third in the Open class. He appeals for overall type and conformation. He has a balanced outline, lovely head qualities and expression, sound construction and positive movement. Presented in lovely condition; the change of kennel and environment has done him no harm at all. C.C. AND BEST OF BREED"

Staffordshire Bull Terrier Club of Queensland Championship Show, June 2002 - Challenge Dog & Runner Up Best In Show
Judge: Mrs Doreen Pugh (Rocellio - UK) who said:
"I have observed this dog on a few occasions from the ring side at shows in the U.K. Now having the benefit of handling him I can better appreciate his qualities. He first of all appealed to me for his overall type and conformation. His stance, carriage, expression and demeanour portrays his character. He has a very good head shape with all the attributes which provides the keen appealing expression the breed is noted for. He is good in body length coupled to strong well angulated hindquarters. To be hypercritical I would like to see him with a better underline.  Presented in first class condition and handled very well. I was pleased to award him the C.C. and later RESERVE IN SHOW."

 "topped a class full of excellence, f/w, excels in type, substance and balance, ideal blend of bull and terrier, correct confirmation enabling him to cover the ground with an easy driving action that was a pleasure to watch.
