    Highest Single Goalkicker Tallies In A Match

    In the 2019 Reserves (EDIT - it was the Seniors) GF of the Circular Head FA in Tassie, L.Jackson of Forest/Stanley kicked all 6 of his team's goals in a 6.5 scoreline, losing to Redpa who kicked 20.9. Researching the Tasmanian State League, I never found anything better than 2 goals when there...

    Looking To Buy - Grand Final Records Before 1971

    Got all of them from 1971 onwards, plus I also have 1967-68. Now looking to go as far back as I can without paying stupid prices! Might have hit the wall with that though. Holy Grail would be obtaining 1961 and 1963, which would be a complete set of Hawk GF's... Anyone?

    Tasmanian Statewide Footy 1986-2000 & 2009-Present

    Up until the end of 1985, Tassie had three major competitions running in the South, North and North-West of the state. In 1985, there were 23 senior sides all claiming a "tier 1" status, before that title actually existed. The South was the comp recognised almost from the start as the dominant...

    Tasmanian Trove Footy

    Update February 5, 2023. Found some minor newspapers which had very detailed coverage of their local leagues. One, The Voice, started in 1931 and was sold on Saturday nights - it had full team details of the TFL games that day, so I'm now working from 1931 forwards, because it's a lot easier...

    Phil Emmanuel RIP

    Died last night from an asthma attack. Saw him play only once, at a clinic Tommy was running. Phil's job was to keep the bar profitable through constant patronage, and then swan up onstage intermittently and play the odd song with Tommy for a bit of variety. Played a 10-minute version of...

    Miscellaneous How, Why & Huh?!? Questions

    Here's mine for today: Perth finished with 11 wins in the 1910 WAFL season for 4th spot, finishing ahead of South Fremantle on 10 in 5th. As far as I can see, looking through scores and a bit of cross referencing, this all adds up. However, South played finals, Perth didn't. Nothing I can...

    Happy Father's Day, Funts...

    Wife and 3yo daughter gave me a GoPro... Not bad for 45 years old, even topping the PS3 I got for my 40th birthday...I'm always short of socks in my wardrobe, though... Have a good one, anyone this day applies to...

    Astronomy Black Holes v White Holes

    Just finished my latest revisiting of Hawking's ABHO Time... The term "white hole" is mentioned very briefly in one part, as a phenomenon which spews out matter, in opposition to the very common term "black hole", which sucks it in... I haven't heard this angle said anywhere before though, and...

    Alien/UFO Tully UFO 1966

    This one interests me greatly - I've just moved to Mission Beach, which is only a short drive up the road...! Technically, it wasn't Tully, it was the town of Euramo just to the south. 18 degrees 00'09.96" S, 145 degrees 55'52.12" E - type this into Google earth, and this is where it was...

    Finer Details

    Just asking for details I can't find anywhere up here in Qld, where my resources are a both more limited than those available to most of you... 1) The score between North Hobart and Gleorchy on the weekend - according to the Mercury and Sportingpulse, both teams were tied at 6.2 after the...

    1975 Grand Final

    Watching this on 7Mate: 1 - Political correctness is a scourge of modern life...Sam Kekovic really is a stupid Latvian, Malcolm Blight did get served bloody right, and the VFL really was "the good old days"...! Coaches can't even hit their players anymore, wtf...? 2 - Today's blond streaks, and...

    Four Conference System

    I'm happy with things the way they are, to be honest, but if you were going to address the so-called problems in the AFL draw, this is the only way you could do it... Premises: We're agreed that the best draw is one where every team must travel the same road to make the finals, right...

    PRO-blems...

    Got invited to a league which had already been set up by friends, and on Feb 29 I paid up to join. Logged, set up team details, entered code, saved details, and got a message saying I'd successfully registered. The screen froze for a while, and then a screen appeared saying I'd been entered in...

    Home Grounds

    Hey guys, I'm a Brisbane-based Tasmanian footy fan who's never been further west than Whyalla, but I'm compiling scores of the WAFL since it started... The info I've got lists home grounds according to their sponsor's names (e.g. Subiaco is called Paterson's, and the rest together look more...

    TSL Info

    Just for my own records, bearing in mind that I'm all the way up here in Brisbane and access to news is a little more restricted as far as TSL footy goes, can you guys supply me with details that can be a bit hard to find: 1) The captains and coaches (including the rounds actually done for...

    Expansion Guernsey Designers

    Guys, some of you are putting in some absolutely superb work, coming up with these hypothetical jumper designs... I'm wondering if anyone is interested in a little project... On my Tassie Devils site, I'd like to put in a page that shows every Devils jumper since inception, but I don't have...
