For those interested, Austin Wonaeamirri will captain theTiwi Bombers in tomorrows grand final against St Marys in the NTFL.

Tiwi Bombers captain Shane Tipuamantamirri will miss out on this weekend's NTFL Grand Final after being suspended for rough conduct. This year's Nichols Medallist, Tipuamantamirri, pleaded not guilty to the charge at a tribunal hearing this week which was unsuccessful.

Tiwi went down to St Mary's dismally in the semi final between the top two sides by 51 points.

Tiwi 10.12.72

St Mary's 19.9.123

Aussie booted 3 goals in the loss.

It will be a great honour for Aussie to captain the proud Tiwi Bombers in a grand final and I will be going to cheer for him and hopefully they go back to back.

My verdict:

St Mary's have been the standout team all year and if Tiwi try to play their game style St Mary's will win big. If Tiwi play their own style I think they'll win a close one. St Mary's by 38.

Cheers,

Well done Aussie - I still have his autographed #33 jumper at home that I paid a fortune for and while I blame for ending his career.

Bought it at a silent auction and the following week he injured his ankle on comeback for the Casey ressies and he never played for the club again.

Go Aussie - I might tape the replay and wear the jumper watching it.

Did the jumper come with elastic sides?))

& an elastic front,,,

When I think what could have been with Liam and Aussie, geez we had some rotten luck.

Or played with fire and got burnt.

Lets invite him for pre season training next year!

Whispering Jack, I feel your pain. I bought the 'Shane Woewodin Brownlow Medal Port' in a crappy gift box etc. Thought it would make a nice souvenir above my bar. Guess where it ended up!!

I still have mine in a cupboard somewhere. Reckon it's turned into vinegar by now if it wasn't to start with in the first place.

Up in the NT, Aussie's Tiwi Bombers started off well enough but were overrun by St. Mary's in the NTFL grand final. Best on ground was Willie Rioli Jnr with 5 goals for the winning team. No doubt, he'll be keenly sought after at this year's draft.

That's nothing, I bought LJ's St Patricks Day signed jumper AND I bought Matty Warnock's Shanghai jumper... I'm currently batting at 100%.

Aah yes the Shane Woewodin Port. The only time i bought off a telephone call. I think he was gone within a month!!

Still got it somewhere. Thanks for the reminder....
