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

    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).

    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: Brisbane

      Forget the haunting of Round 11 — we’ve got this. Melbourne returns to its inner-city fortress for its milestone 100th AFLW match, carrying a formidable 10–2 record at IKON Stadium. Brisbane’s record at the venue is more balanced: 4 wins, 4 losses and a draw.

    • AFLW REPORT: Geelong

      Melbourne wrapped up the AFLW home and away season with a hard-fought 14-point win over Geelong at Kardinia Park. The result secured second place on the ladder with a 9–3 record and a home qualifying final against the Brisbane Lions next week.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

      It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
