Palmy Sandgate great match was nearly ruined by the worst umpiring i have seen. Looks like they were trying to set a new free kick award! No team benefited from the umpire's but they took the flow out of the game with disgusting decisions. Palmy had there chances again much the same as the maggies game all over them then got ran over in last quarter. Super game none the less. Sets up for a ripper next week palmy v noosa. Dont think there were any injury concerns other than Nuss with a head clash and palmy ruckman looked very ginger by last quarter. No injuries up there Noosaboy?

PETER IVES PASSES AWAY
Peter Ives, one of Queensland football’s great servants, has died aged 54.
Monday 13 June 2011
Peter Ives, one of Queensland football’s great servants, has died aged 54.
Ives, the 1978 Grogan Medalist and a member of the Queensland Football Hall of Fame, died on Sunday (12 June) following complications with heart surgery.
The ever-competitive left-footed rover had suffered a heart attack on Friday and was admitted for a quadruple bypass but failed to come through the surgery.
Originally from Toowoomba, Ives made his name with the Mayne Tigers, twice winning the Clem Ryan Medal for the best & fairest player in the QAFL U19 competition before playing more than 100 senior games with the Tigers from 1975-80.
He was the first Mayne player to win the Grogan Medal, named after long-time Mayne official J.A. “Joe’ Grogan, and was named in the Mayne Tigers Team of the Century.
A one-time Geelong VFL triallist and a member of the final 100 players nominated for the Queensland Team of the Century, he was a fixture in the Queensland team through late 1970s, playing 12 times for his State.
In 1983 he filled the one missing gap in his stellar career when, having moved to the Gold Coast to play with Southport, was a member of the Sharks’ premiership side in their first season in the QAFL in 1983.
A plumber by trade and a long-time merchant seaman, Ives was described by former teammate and long-time Queensland football official Shane Johnson as “a fearless and wonderful competitor” and “a gut runner before gut-running became fashionable”.
“He was absolutely fearless. He’d through himself head-first into every contest and was the sort of guy you’d love to go to war with. He was a team player through and through,” said Johnson.
“He wasn’t especially quick but he never stopped running – that’s how he got to so many contests and how we he was so effective. And although he didn’t kick the ball too sweetly at times he was a very penetrating kick.”
Ives, long-time divorced, leaves two children – son James, captain of the Queensland U16 side last year. and daughter Lauren.
This was very sad to read knew Peter back in his playing days for Mayne Great player and bloke. RIP Peter thoughts and condolences to his family.

Tiger G my thoughts with family and close friends, I did play against him and admired his commitment. A real sad loss.

Thanks Dino, can i ask who you played for? They were great days in local footy. So young. tragic loss, it goes past his playing days, he sponsered mayne.coached juniors,Mayne's team of the century, top 100 Qld's team of the century, sad news.
yeah fantastic technique SMY.Has kicked afew behinds earlier on in year but must have been on song last weekend.Played a fair bit of footy down back in Victoria.Has a great work ethic and really good team player.Just walked in to the club too,no fuss,no big contracts,no big head which is what every club wants.
great bloke from what i have heard (a bloke from the roos has met him a couple of times and said he comes accross like a top bloke). same bloke also said how he met him.... club usually doesn't have to pay players when committee members employ them fulltime, which is win win.
I am sure Noosa isn't the first, and won't be the last with a superstar playing for next to nothing thanks to fulltime job from a club supporter.

Coorparoo Roos, great club Mayne and Coorparoo had a great rivalry in the 60's and beyond. My son played for Coorparoo juniors down at Giffin Park 2003-2006 great bunch of people It brought back memories of watching some great games between Mayne and Coorparoo at Giffin park.
Ironically my very 1st game for Mayne Juniors 35 years ago was against Coorparoo, excuse my rant guys.

The Burleigh v Mayne game will be intersting, apparently the NEAFL don't play this weekend. Mayne have got on permit for this game Cleve Hughes from Southport (ex Richmond player) and Luke Ferguson and a couple of other players from Morningside for this game.
Hope they help the Tiges get a win, they deserve it ,coming so close so many times. Fingers crossed

Hey tiger great to read your story and to see the juniors of coorparoo still active although the coorparoo kings trying to keep the roos alive. I can only hope the roos come back as a team of the old era (doubt that) but only morningside the surviving member in the top league, congrats to them. I would love to continue this conversation and chat about the old days, players, etc. I am open to further converation.Coorparoo Roos, great club Mayne and Coorparoo had a great rivalry in the 60's and beyond. My son played for Coorparoo juniors down at Giffin Park 2003-2006 great bunch of people It brought back memories of watching some great games between Mayne and Coorparoo at Giffin park.

Tiger if Mayne are going to break through it must be this week, but the current playing list would not know who Peter Ives was? Hopefully it has filtered through to the boys. Go Tiges!!

it would be filtered through the club, but some of the players knows Ivesy through his involvement in sponsering the club and coaching teams in the juniors. Thanks Dino for your great thoughts!
