With Rowan Johnstone - General Manager AFL Canberra 

After Round 10 of the AFL Canberra Labor Club Division 1 

Premiership, Belconnen and Eastlake share top spot with 

32 points each, Ainslie and the Sydney Swans Reserves fill 

the remaining two spots in the four, with Queanbeyan and 

Tuggeranong both on 3 wins half a game outside. 

In Division 2, Queanbeyan are Belconnen are clear leaders 

with Eastlake, Tuggeranong and Ainslie fighting for the 

remaining two finals spots. Marist remain undefeated in the 

Under 18 competition with all teams very much in finals 

contention. 

After Round 9 in Division 3, ANU and Harman are well clear 

of the rest fighting for the final two spots. In Division 4, 

Goulburn are a game and a half clear and the rest would 

have top four aspirations. After Round 7 of the ACT Women’s 

AFL, Eastlake, Ainslie, Tuggeranong and Belconnen hold the 

top four positions on the ladder. 

On May 29, AFL Canberra, AFL NSW/ACT and the AFL 

Canberra Foundation together with Ainslie, Belconnen, 

Eastlake, Queanbeyan and the Sydney Swans football clubs 

signed a three year agreement providing funding towards 

the development of local AFL clubs and the AFL Canberra 

competitions. 

The AFL Canberra Development Fund secures personnel and 

financial resources for investment in Tuggeranong, Gungahlin 

and Weston Creek as well as priority growth areas in NSW. 

Development Plan priorities include introduction of Division 

2 and Under 18 teams from Gungahlin by 2010, maintenance 

of Division 1 teams and addition of at least one other team 

by 2011 and provision of adequate resources and programs 

for umpiring over the next three years. The commitment of 

stakeholders to this is unlikely to occur any where else but 

in Canberra, where clubs are prepared to put these sort of 

resources forward to secure the future of a local competition. 

The Gungahlin Jets are now seeking Division 2 and Under 

18 coaches for the 2010 season. Appointments in July 

will allow the successful applicants to be involved in the 

development of playing lists for their first year of entry into 

these competitions. 

This weekend sees Belconnen hosting the Sydney Swan 

Reserves at Manuka on Saturday. 

On Sunday, Queanbeyan are home to Tuggeranong and 

Eastlake hosting Ainslie at Manuka. This Sunday is the last 

match that the South East Region Academy of Sport team 

will play in this year’s Under 18 competition. A win over 

Eastlake will see them having won 4 from their 6 matches, 

a loss three and three, a great result for a team playing 

together for the first time in this trial program. If there is 

enough support from AFL Canberra, Sapphire Coast AFL 

League and their participating clubs, a full-time team in 

2010 is a real possibility. Add this team to the new Gungahlin 

Jets team, next season could see an eight team competition 

in the Under 18’s, further strengthening this competition as 

the best in NSW/ACT and a showcase of the talent that is the 

future of local footy and what this region has to offer as a 

pathway to the AFL. 

Last week the 2009 AFL Canberra Representative squad 

was announced. Coaches Steve Mahar and fellow selectors 

Nathan Clarke, Michael Horne and Anthony Bourke have 

selected the following players in their 40 man squad for this 

year’s representative fixture against AFL Sydney on July 26 at 

the new Blacktown Olympic Park.

MATT 

PORTER 

After beating undefeated Eastlake last week and moving 

top of the table, it looks as if last years runners up, 

Belconnen, are determined to go one better this year. 

And if consistent performers like Matthew Porter keep 

up their good form, it’s going to be hard to bet against 

the Magpies avenging last season’s heart-breaking loss. 

Playing every match for Belconnen in ’09 so far, 25yr 

old Porter has stood out for the Magpies. With his huge 

stature, standing 198cm tall and weighing in at 110kgs, 

it’s easy to see Porter is making a big impact on the 

Division 1 competition. 

The ruck man puts his great start to ’09 down to a big 

pre-season. “I had a great preparation for the year, I 

trained really hard and I think that has meant I can get 

around the field a bit better this year” he said. 

The hard work seems to have paid of for Porter, who was 

recently selected in the ACT representative side along 

with 9 other Belconnen players, which included stars like 

Andrew Ainger and Lexie Bennett. 

The Canberra local has played his whole career at 

Belconnen, rising through the junior ranks, up to second 

division then through to Division 1. Porter was part 

of the losing Grand final team last year and said that 

gave him extra motivation coming into the new season. 

“That was a massive disappointment for us, but we 

have moved on and I think it has spurred us on. I think 

it gave me personally more incentive to train and work 

hard, and helped me push myself harder in pre-season” 

he said. 

By Joel Diggins 

AFL Canberra Record Journalist 

After a solid start to the season Belconnen hit a rough 

patch, losing 2 games in a row against Ainslie and 

Eastlake. But the Magpies have turned that around, 

winning 5 games on the trot, defeating top placed 

Eastlake and third placed Ainslie in the process. 

But Porter said the Magpies aren’t getting carried away. 

“We have a lot of work to do, trying to get everything 

100%. There’s a long way to go in the season yet, and 

we are just aiming to keep improving as the season 

goes” he said. 

The Magpies will look to keep the good run of form 

continuing when they take on last seasons Premiers 

Sydney at Manuka oval. 

“We have a lot of work 

to do, trying to get 

everything 100%. 

There’s a long way to go 

in the season yet, and 

we are just aiming to 

keep improving as the 

season goes”

TIM 

INKSTER 

When Ainslie secured Tim Inkster in January of this year, 

they knew they had recruited a very valuable asset to 

their club. 

The 29 year old has found his way into the AFL Canberra 

competition after successful stints in the VFL and SANFL, 

two of the most highly regarded football leagues outside 

of the AFL. 

Playing in the TAC cup as an under 18 for the Ballarat 

rebels, Inkster was then picked up by VFL side the North 

Ballarat Roosters before relocating to South Australia. 

Inkster, a medium forward who can also go into the 

midfield when required, won a premiership with SANFL 

team Woodville West Torrens in 2006 in his best year 

of football to date. In the same year he also made the 

SANFL team of the year and finished 5th in the leagues’ 

best and fairest count. 

Not surprisingly Ainslie Football Manager Corey Saitta 

can’t speak highly enough of the new recruit, saying his 

professionalism and insight into the game has been a 

huge gain for the club. 

“Tim has slotted in beautifully to the club” he said. “He’s 

quite informed as well as a being a great person and 

player…he’s instinctive, and has shown outstanding 

character.” 

It is no wonder Ainslie were keen to get their 

hands on the skilled journeyman. Not only is he an 

experienced and skilled player, he also possesses a 

wealth of knowledge that has come from playing under 

some excellent coaches and with some elite players 

By Jack Baker 


throughout his career. 

Saitta say’s Ainslie knew right from the start what they 

were getting with Tim. 

“We knew from day one that Tim was going to be more 

than just a player for us.” He said. “He’s brought football 

knowledge with him and is very good at giving direct 

instructions to players so that they understand...he 

always places the team before himself.” 

So far this season Inkster has kicked sixteen goals, a 

handy return from the opening ten rounds, consolidating 

Ainslie’s high regard for him and helping the club to 

third spot on the ladder. 

With a fantastic win in the wet over Belconnen earlier 

in the season and a draw with Eastlake, Inkster’s Ainslie 

have shown they have what it takes to match it with 

the top two powerhouses of the competition. However 

if they want to be serious contenders for the flag they 

must avoid slip ups like last weekends narrow defeat to 

the Hawks. 

When they run out this weekend against the Demons, 

Ainslie will be relying on all of Inkster’s experience and 

knowledge and them some to stop an Eastlake side 

stinging from a last round defeat. 

“He’s brought football knowledge 

with him and is very good at giving 

direct instructions to players so 

that they understand...he always 

places the team before himself.”

ACT WOMEN DO 

US PROUD IN 

PERTH 

The AFL Women’s National Championships were held 

over the Queens Birthday long weekend, with the ACT 

putting on some good performances. 

The ACT faced a tough draw, coming up against the 

power house Victorian team in their first game of the 

round robin style competition. Our girls went down to 

the Big V in a brave battle which was not reflected by 

the final score 17-10-112 to 2-2-14. 

The team soon turned their attention to their next 

contest with Queensland. In a disappointing but 

impressive showcase of skill, the ACT squad were 

unlucky to come away with the eight point loss. 

ACT Head Coach Ossie Terron said he was proud of his 

players efforts 

“We attacked hard and tried to put points on the board. 

Both sides had that attitude which is why it was such a 

see-saw game.” 

In a disappointing end to the competition, the team 

was overpowered by the eventual runner-up Western 

Australia. Victoria beat Western Australia in the final 

which was a curtain raiser to the West Coast v Geelong 

match at Subiaco Oval. 

At the completion of the tournament, the All-Australian 

team was announced, with Rebecca Hall representing 

the ACT. Rebekah Allen was also named as an 

All-Australian squad member. Congratulations to both 

girls on this fantastic achievement. 

Belconnen player and first time ACT Representative 

Genevieve Netting said the team performed well in Perth 

considering their lack of preparation 

By Sarah Bakerr 


“I think we played well and were very unlucky against 

Queensland, but perhaps could have benefited from a 

longer preparation, considering some of the other states 

have been training together since last year.” 

“Its still an awesome effort for such a little state to be in 

the top four though”. 

A little closer to home, the ACT Women’s League has 

reached the half-way point of the season, with no 

outright contender for the flag evident. 

Ainslie, Eastlake and Tuggeranng are fighting it out at 

the top of the ladder after seven rounds, all sitting on 

five wins for the season. Belconnen are not far behind, 

comfortably occupying fourth position with some gutsy 

performances to have four wins on the board. 

Riverina, ANU, ADFA and Gungahlin round out the 

bottom four respectively. 

With seven games remaining for the season, it will be 

interesting to see which team will break away from the 

pack to make a claim for the top prize. 

“We attacked hard and 

tried to put points on the 

board. Both sides had that 

attitude which is why it was 

such a see-saw game.”

IN THE BLOOD – CELEBRATING THE RED AND WHITE 

THE NEW BOOK FROM JIM MAIN 

Jim Main has authored the book ‘In The Blood’, a definitive 

history of the Swans over 135 years. This Collectors Edition 

book details the journey from the establishment of the South 

Melbourne Football club in 1874 to the present day Sydney 

Swans. There are few football clubs, of any code in the world, 

who have worn the red and white colours longer and have 

experienced such a rich history of heartache and jubilation, lean 

times and richly rewarding eras over the past 135 years. The 

Swans have always worn the red and white with pride, winning 

four Victorian Football Association premierships before becoming 

one of the eight inaugural VFL clubs in 1897. Swans supporters 

can now own a piece of this history with the launch of Jim 

Main’s new book, In The Blood – Celebrating the red and white, 

to be released in July 2009 and the Inaugural Hall of Fame event 

to be held in Melbourne on July 18. To pre-order your limited 

edition copy now, visit www.sydneyswans.com.au. 

With the expansion of the Gungahlin Jets AFC, the Club Board is seeking 

to appoint personnel to the above positions. It is expected the appointed 

personnel will assist in the development of the new teams and playing lists.

Tuggeranong Hawks 

With the race for the bottom two positions in the top 

four hotting up, the Hawks showed last weekend they 

want to play finals. With a dogged effort against Ainslie 

the boys never gave up all day. Ainslie kept coming but 

the determined Hawks hung on in what was a thriller. 

Well done to all the players and coaches for a great win 

at Greenway. The reserves and U18’s both went down 

but still showed they can play good footy and need to 

put four quarters together. Unfortunately the 3rd’s had a 

loss to a very strong ANU after a close first quarter and 

the women’s team had another win which sees them in 

a 3 way tie for top spot. 

This weekend we travel to Dairy Farmers Park to take on 

Queanbeyan who are looking to turn around their loss 

from last weekend. Both clubs will be battling hard for 

their fourth win of the season and creep closer to the 

finals. 

Congratulations to Jay “Disco” Kickett for playing his 

200th senior game. Jay is a true clubman and selflessly 

battles his heart out for TFC.

CLUB NEWS EASTLAKE Vs 

Eastlake Football Club 

This week Ben Collins will play his 150th senior game 

for the club. Ben came to Eastlake in 2001 playing in 

the club’s senior premiership that year and has been an 

important member of the club ever since. His loyalty 

and commitment to the Demons has been outstanding. 

According to house mate and team manager Phil Gaynor, 

Collo is also a great cook. 

Congratulations also to one of Canberra‘s top firemen 

(along with Paul Raadts and Joe Box!) in Peter McGrath 

who will play his 50th senior game with our club as 

will Aaron Rogers. Alex Hayward will play his 50th club 

game. Congratulations to all of these players for their 

achievements. 

Our big Red and Black Ball is quickly coming over the 

horizon on 4th July. For details please ring Keith Miller on 

62280999. The evening will incorporate our annual 100 

Club Dinner and we have a number of new inductees this 

year. 

Belconnen was too good for us in all grades last weekend 

and they proved what a strong club they are particularly 

their ability to fight back in difficult situations. 

Our sponsor of the week is One Sportswear. The company 

is run by Allan Short a former top Manuka player. The club 

has had a great relationship with Allan for many years 

now and his support is greatly appreciated.

DICKINSON VITAL 

TO TIGER 

CHANCES 

A simple training mishap had the potential to disrupt 

Scott Dickinson’s and potentially, Queanbeyan’s season. 

The Tiger ruckman fell awkwardly in the lead-up to their 

round two clash with Ainslie, breaking his collarbone. 

Dickinson recalled his initial uncertainty after the 

incident. 

“I was just doing some marking work on the ruck bag 

and I landed on the back of my shoulder,” he said. 

“I heard it crack but I didn’t know how bad it was. They 

said I would be out for between six and eight weeks, 

depending on how quickly it healed.” 

Dickinson missed six matches before he returned in 

their round eight triumph over Ainslie. The 25-year-old 

admitted it was difficult to watch from the sidelines, 

despite staying involved with the side. 

“I went to all the team meetings,” he said. 

“They also took me up to the Sydney game which was 

really good. It’s just annoying standing there watching 

from the side.” 

During Dickinson’s his lay-off, the Tigers struggled 

with only one victory. With the ruckman in the side, 

Queanbeyan have won two out of four matches. Last 

season Dickinson played in every Queanbeyan victory. A 

horror seven match losing streak last season coincided 

with Dickinson’s absence due to another injury. Coach 

Mark Armstrong said his value could not be underestimated. 

“He has been arguably the best big man running around 

in the competition over the last 18 months,” Armstrong 

said. 

“The evidence would suggest that without him playing 

Seamus Bromley 


and us losing, against him playing and us winning is 

quite significant. 

“He brings a great physical presence. He is a great mark 

and gives us first chance to win a lot of clearances. He 

is also a developing leader at the club.” 

Dickinson has been impressive since returning in round 

eight. Armstrong admits he was surprised at Dickinson’s 

immediate return to form. 

“I was impressed with his marking ability in his first 

game back,” Armstrong said. 

“I didn’t expect his touch to be as strong as it was, 

especially considering he was coming back from a 

shoulder injury.” 

Queanbeyan have lost ‘winnable’ games to Sydney and 

Eastlake over the last two rounds. While confident the 

Tigers can match it with anyone in the competition, 

Dickinson concedes they need to find consistency. 

“I think we are good enough to beat any team in the 

competition,” he said. 

“We need to play four quarters. The last couple of weeks 

have all been winnable games that we have dropped.” 

The Tigers face a crunch game this round against 

Tuggeranong. A victory for either side could see them 

move into the top four. The Tigers will be wary of a 

resurgent Tuggeranong outfit that impressed with 

wins over Ainslie and Sydney in the last two rounds. 

Dickinson believes every game is crucial for Queanbeyan 

to make the finals. 

“We can’t afford to drop anymore,” he said. 

“He has been arguably the best big man 

running around in the competition over 

the last 18 months”

MARIST IS 

ON A ROLL 

After Winning the Swans Cup and the Premiership last 

year, the Marist u/18s have continued their winning 

ways and are undefeated after 10 rounds. 

If Marist go on to win the premiership this year it will 

be their sixth premiership since 1999, which is a great 

achievement for a school that used to be completely 

Rugby orientated. 

Mark Winchester has been at Marist for 30 years and 

after being the junior coach since 1999 he is now in his 

second year coaching the senior side. Marist football 

president, Brendan O’Rourke believes that Mark, having 

coached some of the current group of players for 

10-years, is a key part of the success the team is having. 

“Another key aspect to the success of the current team 

is that Mark Winchester is well involved with the group 

of current players…they all respect Mark and get on very 

well with him.” 

Mark Winchester believes that school spirit helps give 

his team extra depth. 

“There are always kids who want to play and represent 

their college and by the time you get to the u/18 level 

there is just that depth of talent there. I think also 

the fact it is a school based team means you pick up 

kids who might be lost to the sport and who wouldn’t 

necessarily play for a club but they will play for the 

school and develop the skills.” 

One disappointment that the team has had to face this 

year is the fact that they will not be able to defend their 

Swans Cup title. 

By Ben Radisich 


Because of scheduling problems the furthest Marist can 

go in the Cup this year is to the ACT regional grandfinal, 

which will be played between the winner of the 

government schools and non-government schools. 

Brendan O’Rourke says it is disappointing the team will 

not travel to Sydney and defend their title. 

“There was a little bit of conflict last year when we won 

the Swans Cup, it was on a Saturday night in front of 

the Swans v Geelong game and then we had to travel 

back over night and got back at 3am to get up at 10am 

to play our final against Belconnen.” 

Mark Winchester says his team is well balanced across 

the board and the depth in the team forces players to 

play at their best. 

“I think part of the reason we have done so well is 

that there are no stand out players. So it’s difficult for 

opposition teams to mark one or two players because we 

have a strong depth right across the board in all kinds of 

positions, and that puts pressure on the kids to perform 

to a higher level and maintain their place.” 

In next weeks record I will speak to former Marist coach 

Andy Finlay about the process that was involved from 

changing Marist from a Rugby dominated school into an 

AFL powerhouse. 

I will finish now with some congratulatory words from 

Coach Mark Winchester. 

“The kids are really quite courageous and they tackle 

hard, chase hard and do all the team things that have 

led to success and I think they should be congratulated 

for that…If they just go out and give it their best that’s 

the main thing.”
