How does the game feature in the phsyce of the town RGR.

Does it have any sense of occasion or is it just a novelty amongst the locals.

For that matter is the Alice an Aussie Rules town or a rugby league town?

Town is split between two sports, when AFL in town people from communities come in, is a great day (and often an eventful evening....)

    Is a warm up game between teams from the top end against one from the centre, having seen a bit of footy up here, this could be very entertaining and well worth arriving a bit early, could be quite entertaining

    Anyone staying at Lasseters? I was banned from their about 12 years ago. I’m heading over for this game with a mate who goes for Adelaide. We’ll probably end up at the Casino. I’ve ordered a fake nose and glasses. 

    Cmon.... what's the story...lol

    Did you wake up with a tiger in your bathroom?

    For those coming to Alice, there is an open training session (from previous years a light workout) scheduled for 3pm, expect it to be very light as the weather forecast is unseasonably warm for this game, Saturday and Sunday looking like the two warmest days we have had in a long time

    Thinking about it for next year.

    What about the slow road trip via say Mildura and Broken Hill. In a non 4 wheel drive city car.

    Any ideas of nice places to stop and see along the way and of course the Rock (accomodation is pricey there and hard to get but you only go once or twice !!) Don't mind staying at old pubs or the like rather than the usual characterless Aussie motel.

    Pink Lakes @ Walpeup.

    Play 18 holes at Manangatang on the scrapes: watch the (I think the) 16th par 3 wedge over the mallee scrub!

    My wife is from Alice Springs.

    According to family legend when she turned up to the casino and proudly told the bouncer it was her 18th he did an enormous double take. She'd been a regular there for years (depending on who you believe).

    Austin Wonaeamirri coaching Top End Storm. Wonder if he's playing?

    Just wondering as to what the lighting is like at the ground and whether a night game is a possibility in the future.

    Possible, I think, but not needed, very cold here at night in winter, normal temperatures 20-22 degrees

    Below 10, sometimes lower, very cold for locals, would effect crowds, especially children

    Will be at training at 3, probably opposite scoreboard in a red skydive Mission Beach Tshirt, with two young kids in tow, most likely with their flags.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
