    What's With All The Doubts?

    Thing is too many of our players seem to lack even the most basic of skills (kicking,marking,hand pass,etc). Against the Hawks how many times did the kicker miss his target ? Remember Fev going off more than once because he was in a good possie but the ball delivery sailed over him or way away...

    Southern Districts

    Having grown up here in Darwin I know most of the players mentioned above, played with/against them, went to school / worked with some of them. Basically the sides back then WERE much better than sides today. The Districts side of 1988/89 would beat the current Districts side by about 80 +...

    Southern Districts

    The best Districts side was back in 88/89 when we had Jakovich, Hughes, Cox, Kemp, Lawson, Collard, Buckley etc. Now that was a great era in NT footy which wont be seen again, not long after the teams went downhill and the crowds followed. For those who have been in Dwn for 40 yeras like me we...

    Joe Anderson

    With Joe Anderson his best position will be on the oppositions small forwards, and as a rebounding defender. He will make a good tagger one day as well, but his ability to go forward should not be under estimated as he can do that as well. For those of you with Foxtel / Austar if you have yet...

    Pym Verbeek gets Socceroo Job

    The biggest problem for Australia is scoring goals against the medium to better teams. Playing with one striker is not the answer, we need to play with two..if it is the A League selection then Griffiths and Aloisi..if it is the overseas selection then Viduka and Kewell in a striking role. The...

    Pre-season - news hungry fan

    It is pre -season as we all know and I for one am counting the hours till the new season begins. As a result of being news hungry I grabbed the Inside Footy and the following stories are in it that I am just going through. And no, I live in Darwin and do not work for the paper, just snapping...

    Has an O'Neill ever played for Carlton - and how Joe Anderson doing?

    Joe Anderson rolled his ankle training here in Darwin with his old team while he was on his holiday. From what I know he is in the re-hab group at CARLTON now. While home in Darwin he went magpie goose shooting with his mates.

    Training - 12/11/07

    As for Benjamin... He has what it takes, no doubt. The BIG problem is he burns up the training track in Summer...PROBLEM is he can not stand the Winter, hates it. That is probably why he did not seem interested last season, he was too busy hating the cold. He may be a little more used to...

    Whitnall has officially retired

    To add to the Darwin post. Yes, Lance is set to play two games up here for the Palmerston Magpies (a mid table team where he has a cousin playing, and brother Shane Whitnall played a season for), don't know how Lance will like the heat though, although he visits Darwin often. Having lived...

    Wanted: New Assistant Coach

    If Whitnall is axed as a player he should come on board as an assistant coach a she does have a good footy brain and is young which is what we want in the coaching panel to go with our young list.

    On "Before the Bounce"

    So I expect many saw the Fox Sports "Before the Bounce" on 21/09/07. The panel said Fev was shopping around other clubs and wants out of PP. Any thoughts ? If he does want to go, then the Eagles can have him and pick 3 for Judd. Although, the panel also said the Eagles DO NOT want him !!

    Wanted: New Assistant Coach

    We will not get Buckley. Most people would have seen the Eddie interview a week or two back I think. Anyway, Eddie said he would love Bucks to play on in 2008, but that "we" are sitting down with him and working on his continuation with the club when he stops playing. So guess Bucks will be...

    Black Day looms for Blues' Big Red

    With Libba to go, how about giving Lance that vacant assistant coaches role ? He has a very good footy brain, so why not ?
