Great little video.

 

i love this community, each time I am there we talk about the oval and Melbourne’s involvement. It is a very well run community with a wonderful art centre, quality training programs that lead to real jobs and the interior of the church is something to behold, absolutely brilliant- is covered in wonderful paintings.

I saw this on ABC TV news last night: gee I felt proud to be a Melbourne supporter.               Well done to all involved!

The comment at the end that the people of Santa Teresa may not be demon supporters but we live in their hearts... left me uneasy.  Its a nice warm and fuzzy thing to say but it makes me wonder how we will ever get supporters in and around Alice if something as big as grassing the oval doesn't do it.

People don’t easily change teams.

 

The kids though, we should get, especially as Santa Teresa is not a one team town, their team nickname is a local word, so in the AFL they choose their team instead of following the community

A super duper long shot but how about a premiership or two with Kozzie starring and winning the NS in one of them LH

Very encouraging, thanks.

Am hoping borders are open next year as would love to go to the Alice game and explore the local activities you described above...and see the Santa Teresa oval.

This is a group on Facebook I follow, they are helping make Santa Teresa one of the best communities in Central Australia.

Excited to head along to Traeger today to cheer on Santa Teresa in the Central Dessert Regional Council Division grand final. If you're missing footy this weekend you can catch a live-stream here, with the under 18s decider already underway:

He'd only be barely a teenager from memory.
