40? wow... who played well for the tri colours?Ainslie over Coota by 40, maybe more... Looked pretty good today.
Lets say its a Yass v Coota GF, do you think it would get a better crowd than either team at their home ground? For what reason do you say no? Just curious.All for home semis.... Would be a great way to promote the game and get the whole town down/make it an event etc. Home GF, i dont think so...
Hmm, some good discussion being enjoyed here. Not sure actually... Let us hope that it is a Coota Yass GF in the near future though. That would be great for our game.Lets say its a Yass v Coota GF, do you think it would get a better crowd than either team at their home ground? For what reason do you say no? Just curious.
It would be a great spectacle for any of the regional clubs to host a final and potentially a granny.
Last season our side benefited greatly from our loyal supporters who passionately got around the navy blue. Even chartered a few buses to matches late in the season. Was an amazing show of community spirit with businesses decorating the main street in Coota grand final week.
It would be a fantastic opportunity to take finals footy out to the local communities.

Hello clarkeovalblue Last year you and your blokes got it exactly rite , I mentioned it that here at Yass how the whole town had got behind you blokes, in the week lead up to the Granny I had cause to be in Coota on the Wednesday I was surprised at just how many shops and places had decorated in the navy blue. Here in Yass were AFL is not high on the agenda we didn't have one .Having a granny in Coota would sure make the league sit up and take notice I think .It would be good for the code .However with the thieving robbing buggers at AFL house running the show it will never happen.
There is no way the brass would go for a country finalGot to love ol fasion bush footy support!!
I heard someone put a few Coota signs out on the Barton H/way before lasr years GF.

Yes unfortunately the club has been forced to pull out the Rising Stars team. I believe they had about mid 30's in numbers for both the U18s and U17s and with nearly all the players eligible for U17s they decided for the kids development it would be better to keep the U17s and fold the Rising Stars. Its a small bump in the road, but we're excited about the young guys coming through and for those that saw, this group knocked off the Belconnen Rising Stars the other week, so they have shown they have a bright future if they all stick together. Next year most of the players will step up into the next age bracket and we'll get our rising stars back up and running. In the meantime we'll develop these kids as much as we can and no doubt some of them will play some senior footy this year which will be super exciting for both the players themselves and the club.You'd have to think they'll have another hard look at the division alignments at the end of this year.
Any comments from 12 magpies here? Or has he finally become 12 jets?
I agree, it is going to take time for them to become strong. Stronger, well developed clubs need to pull their weight to ensure the future is rosy for our great code here in the ACT.Yes unfortunately the club has been forced to pull out the Rising Stars team.

As for another realignment, those that think this is going to be a quick fix are delusional. AFL Canberra have a lot of hard work to do to make Division 1 a strong and competitive competition and bringing clubs into the comp like Gungahlin and hopefully the Wodens and Molonglos eventually, will take time for them to become competitive.
Thanks southcab. We definitely had some enthralling battles last season and the healthy rivalry is great for country footy. Having started some work in the Yass township myself, I definitely enjoy the characters associated with local sport. Totally agree with your comments. It would be nice to have more presence from the league at our home and away matches and acknowledge the voluntary commitment to the sport.Hello clarkeovalblue Last year you and your blokes got it exactly rite , I mentioned it that here at Yass how the whole town had got behind you blokes, in the week lead up to the Granny I had cause to be in Coota on the Wednesday I was surprised at just how many shops and places had decorated in the navy blue.

Its great to see clubs show so much respect to former participates and Stevie is such a worthy recipient .On another note Nov Ando.s suspension has finished and he can now umpie again would you like his numberGoulburn is still looking for an umpire, we had a cooma club umpire and Stevie A. A couple of young fellas run the boundary at home games. Also retired the number 7 at the start of the game for Steve Armstrong contribution to Aussie rules here.
Our match was conducted by Ainslies club umpires and no boundaries. They let the game flow and did a fine job.
