Sports Mole picks out its best XI as well as highlighting this week's numpty and best goal from a fiery sixth round of fixtures in the Championship.

The sixth round of fixtures in the Championship saw 28 goals and six red cards.

Queens Park Rangers and Blackpool kept up their unbeaten starts to the season with victories over Birmingham City and Bournemouth respectively, while at the foot of the table Millwall and Bolton Wanderers remain winless for the campaign.

Below, Sports Mole picks out its best XI as well as highlighting this week's numpty and best goal.

Ross Turnbull (Doncaster)
Turnbull has been given a chance to resurrect his career at Donny and at Huddersfield Town on Saturday he kept out the league's top scorer in James Vaughan.

Luke Chambers (Ipswich)
Chambers has moved into an unfavoured right-back role for Ipswich Town in the last couple of matches. Usually a centre-back, the Tractor Boys' talisman showed that he can be a threat going forward by excellently directing a cross into the far corner to complete Ipswich's turnaround against Boro.
Liam Moore (Leicester)
A goal and a clean sheet for Moore, who thumped a header into the net to give Leicester the lead against Wigan.
Peter Clarke (Huddersfield)
Terriers captain Clarke was solid at the back as Huddersfield shut out Doncaster at the Galpharm. A shame that Clarke was let down by his teammates at the other end of the field as they failed to find the net.
Stephen Warnock (Leeds)
Warnock was a constant pest both in attack and defence as Leeds kept a clean sheet away from home, piling more misery on lowly Bolton.

Kazenga LuaLua (Brighton)
The winger had plenty of attacking responsibility thrust upon him after Leonardo Ulloa's red card against Reading. He may not have created or scored a goal as the game finished goalless, but he was the most dangerous man on the pitch.
Craig Bryson (Derby)
The shoe-in for this week's TOTW is Rams midfielder Bryson, who scored a hat-trick against troubled Millwall. All three goals were cracking finishes too - certainly an afternoon to remember for the 26-year-old.
Rodolph Austin (Leeds)
A bullish performance from Austin as Leeds continued their good start to the season. The combative midfielder made six tackles to make it ever so hard for Bolton to create chances as their problems just grow and grow.
Joe Ralls (Yeovil)
The teenage midfielder, on loan from Cardiff City, scored a crucial goal for Yeovil as they somehow managed to grab a draw at Wednesday after going down to 10 men.

Simon Cox (Forest)
Cox opened the scoring and hit the woodwork in the 77 minutes that he was on the field against Barnsley as Forest stayed within three points of the top two of Blackpool and QPR.
David McGoldrick (Ipswich)
Two very well-taken goals from Ipswich's number one frontman McGoldrick against Boro took his tally to three for the season. The first, a sweetly-struck drive from outside the box, was especially good.

Numpty of the Week

Leonardo Ulloa: Brighton's top scorer goes from the best XI last time out to numpty this week for his stupid karate kick on Pearce that got him sent off against Reading, who had already been reduced to 10 men themselves.

Goal of the Week

Tomasz Cywka (Barnsley) vs. Forest: They may be languishing in the bottom three after another loss at Forest, but Barnsley did score the stand-out goal of the weekend when second-half substitute Cywka arrowed an unstoppable free kick from over 30 yards into the top corner. A true strike if ever we have seen one. Notable mention to Derby's hat-trick hero Bryson, whose second was similarly accurate and powerful.
