Don't think i called Tennick a thug it's just thug acts that will continue unless the umps put a stop to it ans start reporting blokes. Carter is clearly in the top 3 young kids in comp ( well he thinks so) the slightest thing goes against him and he will come back home. Tigers should go in as favs this week after giving Port a touch up while Port should do the same in the ressies.

Well I haven't had a good laugh for a long time, this is / was a gut buster for me.
Now pray tell why Saints shouldn't rightly be favorite
they have been here before many times.
before poor Tiger last visit in 2004
Saints clearly beat the tiger last time they met, they have greater depth than any other club due to their incentive program. there are more reasons but will leave some to others to point out

Congratulations to Matthew Walsh on B & F, quality player & worthy winner. Well done "young" Tommy Furness on the reserves medal, he is a true gentleman & great clubman for the Lions. It was a good night for the over 30's..!
GF this week. Hope Norths can get up but Saints always peak at the right time & the week off is very valuable. SF was really tough game, this one should be no different & looking forward to watching it.

Great win for the Lions young (LOL) Fella a great boost for the club and one that didn't make the semis, it does show you can win from an understrength club.
Great result for Olde Man Lawso from Souths
Well done to Matt, did not think he had a hope what with others taking points off him. A true gentleman and richly deserved

That's an interesting question Tamba. In market economics there are price takers and price makers. Prospective NEAFL players will attract good coin, but will probably have to take less than anticipated as (a) they want to progress their footy careers and (b) the local clubs aren't like southern clubs and can't afford the dollars they're asking.Where am wrong again
FairnessInFooty, sh-t stirrer that is
Win-win all round.
Why did I comment in September on comments made in July? I don't go into this forum too often because of the quality of some contributions, and a poorly structured argument is so regardless when it's highlighted.

An interest day tomorrow for the league
Seniors
Cairns Saints V North Cairns Tigers .The crowd sentimental favorites I imagine would be Norths , the Bookies would be Saints with most of the money laid on them.
If the wind and the men in Orange don't stuff things up it will be a great game.
Walsh will be deadly in front, but look to others scoring if he is tagged early, which I think Saints wouldn't really care as they have enough sharp shooters to take over.
North Cairns really need to jump out early take this by the neck and shut down Saints scorers early. Then the main thing is too PLAY 4 quarter football for the day. This in my view is the only way to take the glory for the day.
My Tip------ North Cairns
See yas at the Game
Reserve Grade
North Cairns Tigers v Port Douglas Crocs. MMmmmm
Toss of a coin here. Will sit my Fat A on the fence
$6.00 admission through out the year
$8.00 admission for the Semis
$10 admission for the Grand Final
talk about scalping the punters.
I still suppose it is value for money considering prices for other codes.

"Old" Walshy certainly came home with the wind in his sail in the second half of the season. As Walshy quite rightly pointed out, if he didn't get good delivery it wouldn't happen. I must admit he's still a bit of a freak. Also well done to Tommy Furness, I watched him a couple of times during the season and definitely gets in there and has a good crack.

It is only Cairns though. Who ever runs the gate will make a fortune out of the Saints throng. Have AFL Cairns allowed enough time this year at the end of each break for the Saints supporters to leave the field???

Kiss of death for the GF's -
I haven't watched any of the finals so am unsure about form.
Seniors -
Saints V Norths - I think the experience of Dad's Army will get them over the line.
Ressies -
Norths V Port - The Tigers will be too strong in this for Port.
Good luck to all.

Yesterday was as good as a grand final win as you will ever see. Not just saying that cause i am a Saints supporter but for a team to be down to no bench at half time lose their coach 2 key backman have 14 fit players at the end was a remarkable effort. Anyone who thinks Lukas Ellich is a good player after yesterday wasnt there cause he cost his team a flag. Well done on Kane and his boys for a great season but they wont take the next step till they get rid of dogs like him. RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW
Fair point Lachrilly. Saints showed plenty of heart to win the game, however I think poor coaching & undisciplined acts (Ellich in particular) cost Norths the GF. Norths have a fantastic team & had a great opportunity to run over Saints in the final quarter, but those 2 factors just mentioned cost them dearly. It will be interesting to see if Ellich gets sighted for his hit on Powell. There were mixed reactions in the crowd whether it was fair or not, but for Powell to go down in that manner suggests to me that it was an illegal hit. I've also heard a whisper that Richter will be heading Sth next year. Any confirmation on that one???

Yes Lachrilly, the Saints deserved to win that one. But like Carl, I think Norths lost the game rather then Saints winning it. If Norths would have stuck to their game plan throughout the game I believe they would have won and even Max O'Halloran thought the same thing when I spoke to him after the game. In the 1st quarter it looked like they would walk away with it. I can't work out how a team can be in front and then let so much ill-descipline creep into their game. What did they think they would achieve by coming out and playing thuggery footy. Was a brave effort by the Saints boys to finish the game off with injured players and no bench.
I guess we now look forward to all the 2014 coaching rumours.

Enjoyed the game was entertaining
Norths lost Saints didn't win.
But that is the way Saints pounce on clubs and do it too the best of their ability. They wait for a lapse then put down the plans.
Saints did well on having no bench in the end.
Saw the hit but thought it was a legal ---so did those around me,
hope he has recover to partake in the festivities
Coaching Rumors the part of the year when more bull-dust flies then any other. Oh how I love this period.
The boys watched the video at mad monday yesterday and the hit on Powell didnt seem to have much in it. So either he just got him in the right place or maybe the hard ground was a factor too. There were 2 cases that Ellich will have to answer IMO but no doubt Norths will find a way to get him off as they always do.

Interesting comment Carl, the last I heard was that it was full steam ahead. AFL Cairns will not have control of the team/club but will have a voice. Five home games at Cazalys a year with the others played at Brownsville and Mackay. They way I have read it, nothing is stopping this from going ahead. However, people do change their minds don't they???
