This is all there is sorry(as far as I know)
http://www.websports.onthenet.com.au/NTFL/NTFL.html



Football Park-Marrara has been abandoned for another week.
They've laid new turf in the middle to fix the problems, but
with monsoonal rains coming in the next month or so, it
could create new ones.

 

[Mobbs]

There's a link for the league and a link for at least one of the clubs (St Marys) on my site, as per the signature.

Hope that helps.

Bloody AFL. They own the Northern Territory football scene now. They should be constructing their own web page. The NTFL as it was did that...why can't the AFL NT board do it?

How hard can it be?

"www.aflnt.com.au"---ALL RIGHT? Get to bloody work!

 

[BomberBoy]

Personally - I can't see the AFL doing much.

I know Wayne jackson hates Darwin. He might say its a good venue, but I think he hates it.

He wasn't very happy at the last Ansett Cup match because of the condition of the grass. THis bloke is a complete tool, does he realise that when a cyclone/low hovering around Darwin at this time brings with it buckets of rain. I wonder if some of the big ones down south could sustain it.

Heres a couple of articles on aspiring territory footballers

From NT Football Insight (author Unknown)
"Southern Districts left footer Jared Brennan is
round 2 casuarina square rising star nomiation
Saturdays match was Jared's 4th at league level
this follows an exciting and successful NT underage
represenative season in 2001 when he representated
at U18 (melbourne) and U16 (Adelaide), the latter as
one of 6 overage concession players.

The lanky easy going 17 year old midfielder
was outstanding in the crocs U18 grade last season
aand continued to blossom in the territory thunder 2001
programme matching highly rated opposition in games in
Brisbane Melbourne Darwin and Adelaide.
Jared received the NT 2001 U18 johson family medal
rising star after polling well in mcadam U16 and
mclean U18 medals.his marking pace and courage
have already attracted interest fron AFL recruiting
staff and possibly winning the 2002 casuarina
award can only improve his profile."

From the Centralian Advocate
BY Anthony BARICH
"Phillip Bennet's dreams of hitting the big time came
one step closer when he was named Territory Thunder's
u18s most consistant player last week the former federals
full back and ruckman was NT's best in its five point loss to
Tasmania in the u18 nationals in melbourne and has his sights
set on Adelaide.
Having looked at university courses in Melbourne. his TAC cup
hopes were dashed when he discovered he will be too old next
year,but can still play U18s in the SANFL. Bennett made his
debut in the NTFL in Darwin on Sunday.
He lined up for Waratahs with fellow Federal Demon
Tom Logan, who was best on ground in their 15.13 (103 to 14.12)
loss to Nightcliff.
Bennett had high priase for Logan who was named the under16s
most consistant player. Bennett said:"Tom is an amazing player
-he's still 16 and has a big future ahead of him.
Bennett who works for aflnt game development in Darwin
and in alice springs during the CAFL season is keen on GLENELG(????)
where he did coaching clinics this year and Eagles where his grand father played.
Bennett said I'm not too sure what to expect of the SANFL.
People say it's more suited to taller players where Territory
footy is for faster on-ballers
As an accomphished ruckman and fullback the SANFL suits
Bennett down to the ground. Bennett aims to try out at Glenelg
and Eagles in Feburary next year. Wests(Alice Springs) player
Sean Cantwell was named thunder u16s best team man
Wests star full forward steve squires has put his NTFL aspirations
on hold until he finishes Year 12"

If your going to play footy up here
you've got to deal with the extremes.
Some of the best NT footy is played in heavy rain

Concerning this NT State side v. AFL team, does anybody know who it may be?

In my opinion, they should take on more SANFL teams, seeing that they could be entering our league in the next few years.

In fact, if the NT does enter a side, the games against AFL teams could be a thing of the past. Why? 'Cause NT players would be eligible to play in the SANFL tri-colours and mix it with the best from interstate.

I say that because Tasmanian players are eligible to play in the VFL state team. Now that would rock.

Rock-hard Territorians and Croweaters against Tassie and the Big V. That would be something to look forward to.

Jock Mcleods 150th Game
Waratahs were looking to fence Palmerston's running
atacking style in on the smaller Gardens oval.
the first q was an even tussel.Palmerston kicked a goal
within second of the opening bounce.
Waratahs put the Magpies under enough pressure
to stymy their usual goal kicking blitz.
Waratahs attack however was not up to the task as it
appears their leading goalkicker Valentine Pautijimi
was missing so they lacked the normal focus point.


In the Second Palmerston kicked away from Waratahs
6 goals to one and the game was effectively
over by half time.

A long an heavy storm blew Waratahs chance of
getting back in the game after the break.

"Southern Districts mid-fielder Jared Brennan earned his
second Casuraina Square Rising Star nomination with a
'best on ground' performance at freds pass last saturday.
Jared was also the Casuarina square nomination in
round 2.

The pacy tall left footer is proving difficult to match up
for NTFL clubs and he has become a key player for
the crocodiles,after playing only one game last season.
Seventeen year old Jared(d.o.b 28.7.84) is completeing
Year 12 this year and has been offered a 2002 Ntis afl
athlete scholarship.

A key player with Territory Thunder at both the AFL
U16 and U18 National championships, Jared has

Kardinia Park and Optus Oval with the U18s.As his
football developed Jared was fast tracked by his 2001

The Australia Day Game will be Aboriginal Allstars v Carlton

I don't Think NT players would want to play as the Tri colors they'd rather play as an NT Side

Why wouldn't they?

It would be the only opportunity that Northern Territorians will have to play proper State matches...and it would not just be South Aussies, it would be a joint effort between them and the Territorians. It would certainly equal the odds against the VFL, which has Tasmania in its grasp.

Stuff matches against clubs.

I think that NT players would rather play against a whole state league. Perhaps when the NT joins the SANFL, the SA Football Commission will decide to negotiate use of Marrara Oval to play a state match up in the Top End...like matches against Western Australia or Tasmania.

The Nightcliff/Palmerston Game commmenced 4.00 Saturday
at football park. Nightcliff put in a 4 quarter effort to gradually
wear down the talented Pamerston outfit with a close checking
defensive effort, forsaking much of their usual rapid attacking stlye.
Palmerston's on baller Dallas Cook centre half back Jerry Frank
and defensive Rookie Antel Reti were the Magpies best in the first
half. Last weeks player of the round Ed Darcy was completely shut
out of the game.

Wanderers helped by a downpore blitzed
Darwin in the opening stanza building up a 30
point lead at on stage. Darwin looked slow
and tired in the wet. An old Buffaloe was
heard to mutter during the 2nd quarter
" Whats next weeks game?"
With the rain stopping before half time so
did Wanders run, but they showed enough
to say that the 140 point drubbings should be over.

Is it possible that between Tindal, Arnhem and Kirbys Agents, we have the Bombers, the Buccaneers and the Hawks?

killer,

you said that "Wallabies wore blue and white for the only season that they competed."

When exactly was that?

 

[BT]

I've decided to barrack for Darwin, their colours are the best of a bad lot! Killer i'm assuming they wear Sturt jumpers? Killer you appear to support them too, is it only because of their colours?

Carn Darwin!

Carn Darwin!

They'er jumpers are more like East Perth with a yoke.(except mostly dark blue and light blue yoke)

They had a light blue jumper (with a buffs head in the centre) a few seasons ago it lasted 2 seasons then they changed back to the one they had worn for the previous 30 years.

The league was
Buffaloes
Wallabies
Wanderers

Buffaloes won the 1935/36 Premiership by defeating
Wallabies by 13 points
Wallabies and Wanderers did not field teams the next year.
Garrison and Waratahs rejoined the next season.

1934/35 - Grand Final : Buffaloes 1.0.6 defeated Waratahs 0.0.0.
(this was a forfeit. - Waratahs refused to play under the selected umpire.
