hey killer is it true what i heard about hermannsburg the other day ... that a certain set of folk are locked up in a protected compound each evening?

[killer]

Haven't heard that one....But its possible.
In some places the health clinics get attacked fairly regularly.

In one community to the north they have to fly the
local police in and out daily (They wont stay the night there).

Would have thought Hermmansberg was more
sedate.

Hey Killer

I take it you are based in the Alice seeing as you have up to the minute scores...

I was at Traeger Park yesterday watching Rovers get flogged by Pioneers. Not good. I think Westies (coached by Noel Teasdale) ran over Souths. And Blues fans, in case you were wondering what has happend to the Flash Michael Graham - he is coaching Federals this season...a few legends up here hey!

Hi Youngster,

No I'm in Darwin -Got the Results from
the Sunday Territorian.

Country Cup doesn't get much of a run beyond that
so I thought i'd give them a bit more publicity.

Micheal Graham?
Someone told me Charlie King was coaching Feds

15 goal slaughter by westies over souths
but it'lll be the Eagles like every other year.

What was the local reaction to the propect of
amalgamating the 2 leagues?

keep us informed
------------------------------------------------------
This week
A/Springs CAFL is Rovers (dB) v Wests (Bloods)
both of which got flogged on Sunday.
and Feds (Demons) V Pioneers (Eagles) - last v second
In the Country Cup? god knows.
I'll be off for a week so you might
have to guess (or beg Youngster for the answer)

Gday Killer


Have you sent your complaints to the ABC about the lack of SANFL coverage here in the NT? Very p*d off that I can't get my fix any more, especially as we have to put up with fat blokes at Mararra Stadium running around with hockey sticks as an alternative!!!

I think Charlie King coached Feds when he was down here for the Lightning Carnival just after Easter, as their coach quit a week or so before the first game of the season. Flash has now stepped into the breach.

Will try and keep you all posted as to the local footy results. Probably Tuesday night...

As to the amalgamation of the 2 leagues, I think the established clubs probably wouldn't be happy, as they get a lot of their players from the communities. Rovers has a big Hermannsburg connection, while Feddies have got a few blokes from Santa Teresa. However, I think it makes sense as they are both overseen by the CAFL.

What is happening with the proposed NTFL move into the SANFL - when I first got here in 99 it was the talk of the Territory..now it's gone very very quiet. I was looking forward to barracking for the Blues against the NT at Traeger Park...
