BOUNDARY 

LINE 

Can you believe that we are already into the final 

round of the season! It doesn’t seem that long ago 

that we were launching a bold new competition, yet 

here we are with the finals on our doorstep. 

This week sees a full dress rehearsal of the first 

weekend of the NEAFL Eastern Conference finals, 

with the Sydney Swans taking on Ainslie, and the 

GWS GIANTS hosting Eastlake. 

the night. We will also be recognising our mens and 

womens representative teams that performed so 

well this year. 

I would also like to thank all the coaches, managers, 

trainers, committees and all other volunteers 

in between for their great efforts again this year. 

Football clubs are underpinned by their staff and 

The finals series is really looking like it’s going 

to be a fantastic few weeks of footy across all 

grades. This week for the first time, we have taken 

a women’s semi final to Wagga in recognition of the 

Riverina Lions finishing in first place. 

The final game of the round is Queanbeyan vs. 

Tuggeranong, with Belconnen having the bye after 

notching their second win of the year last week. 

I’d like to take this opportunity to invite all footy 

followers in the region to our Gala Presentation 

Evening which will encompass the Mulrooney 

Medal, to be held at the Hellenic Club on Wednesday 

7 September. This promises to be a great night, with 

AFL NSW/ACT General Manager Tom Harley our 

special guest. We have introduced two new awards 

this year, Mark of the Year and Goal of the Year. 

These awards are sure to be very entertaining on 

volunteers. You are crucial to your clubs, your 

players and the League. To that end I would like 

to thank all the AFL Canberra volunteers who 

contribute their skill and time in various ways 

and means throughout the year. This includes the 

tribunal, video review panel, appeals board, the 

league investigator, umpires observers, the Female 

Football Advisory Committee, the Junior Advisory 

Committee, as well as the ACT representative staff. I 

would like to pay special tribute to another group of 

very important volunteers, the AFL Canberra Board 

of Directors led by chairman Gerard Rees.

Just another 

milestone 

By Tamarah Knox 

Currie ends 

season with 150 

4 

Running out on to 

Ainslie Oval will be 

both momentous and 

strange for Daniel 

McFarlane this 

Saturday. 

One of Ainslie’s most 

experienced players will 

be celebrating his 100th 

appearance for the club in 

their last regular league game 

for the season. 

The match also sees 

McFarlane come up against 

his employer, as his current 

job is as a performance 

analyst for the Sydney Swans. 

“I’m sure there will be a little 

bit of banter out on the field,” 

McFarlane said. 

“I’ve got great respect 

for the Swans 

as a club and also 

for the players. I’m 

sure we’ll have a 

good laugh about it 

later on but there 

are four points up 

for grabs and an 

opportunity to set 

a standard leading 

into the finals.” 

Despite the big occasion 

personally for McFarlane, he 

has had to put it to the back of 

his mind to benefit the team. 

With finals just around the 

corner, it’s important that the 

team goes into the business 

end of the season with 

momentum on their side. 

“The premiership is 

your ultimate goal 

as a team,” McFarlane 

said. “It’s still 

exciting to knock up 

100 for a club that 

I’m very passionate 

about, but the most 

important thing is 

obviously the finals 

coming up.” 

McFarlane was born and 

raised in Australian football’s 

heartland down in Melbourne 

and was introduced to the 

game by his father. 

The thirty-year-old has been 

with Ainslie since 2004 and 

his blood definitely runs red, 

black and white. 

“Ainslie is a very special 

place for me. It’s a fantastic 

club and I’ve never had 

any thoughts about going 

anywhere else.” 

“They’ve always looked 

after the players, me and my 

family. Any players that have 

come from out of town, the 

way that the club goes out of 

it’s way to help those guys, it’s 

pretty special. 

The club will be hoping to 

celebrate McFarlane’s 100th 

game with a win over one of 

their fiercest rivals, but will 

have to be at their very best if 

they’re to challenge. 

Ainslie have secured their 

position in the top two and 

Saturday’s match is a great 

chance to test the team’s 

metal against the front 

runners. 

If Ainslie are to successfully 

defend last year’s premiership, 

chances are they will 

have to get past Sydney to 

do it. 

Even though they 

have missed the 

finals, this weekend 

will see the Hawks 

end their season on 

a celebratory note, 

as Glenn Currie 

runs out for his 

150th game. 

Currie may have missed games 

earlier in the season due 

to being overseas but once 

he returned he became an 

important member of the team 

and has been a solid performer 

all season. The Hawks have 

put in some impressive 

performances this season 

building nicely on the progress 

they made last year. 

“Cuz [Currie] had an interrupted 

start to the season. He played 

in our first match which was 

against the GIANTS and was 

then away for about a month 

overseas. 

“This year his 

position in the side 

has chopped and 

changed around 

a bit. He did play a 

sweeping role down 

back for us but has 

seen more time in 

the forward line as 

a crumbing forward 

and on the wing,” 

Gorman said. 

Currie has been playing with 

the Tuggeranong Hawks for 

a while now and with such a 

young team, he plays a key 

role within the team off the 

field as well as on. Guiding the 

younger members of the team 

is key to future success and 

Currie provides a steadying 

influence on the young squad 

as they build a 

strong foundation 

for the future. 

“With plenty 

of young 

blokes in our 

side he plays 

an important 

leadership 

role with the 

younger players 

looking up 

to him,” Gorman 

said. 

Currie is sure to provide 

great senior leadership in 

next seasons pre-season 

campaign as the Hawks 

look to build a more 

competitive 2012 side. 

But this week the Hawks are 

focussed on Queanbeyan and 

giving Currie a memorable 

150th game. “150 games 

is a great achievement and 

he deserves every bit of it,” 

acknowledged Gorman. 

Tuggeranong will play 

Queanbeyan at Dairy Farmers 

Park on Saturday 27th August 

at 2pm.

THE BELCONNEN MAGPIES WENT OUT WITH A BANG 

LAST WEEKEND, NOTCHING UP A WIN IN THEir LAST 

ROUND OF THE REGULAR SEASON. 

The guys have 

remained positive, 

there’s a really strong 

feeling amongst the 

group, they’re all 

really great mates 

The side was pumped to get 

over the top of the Hawks. 

The Magpies had played 

Tuggeranong twice this year 

and both times came close to 

winning. However, it was third 

time lucky for the team who 

are already excited for next 

season. 

Belconnen’s NEAFL side may 

be out of the finals race, but the 

Magpies reserve grade are in 

fine form. 

After overcoming 

the sudden resignation 

of their coach 

John Williams, the 

side will now compete 

for the flag and 

are confident they 

can match ladder 

leaders Queanbeyan 

and Ainslie. 

Caretaker coach Justin 

Lalor has been guiding the side 

through the last few games in 

the regular season. He says the 

boys have taken the coaching 

change in their stride after what 

has been “not an easy year”. 

“The guys have remained 

positive, there’s a really strong 

feeling amongst the group, 

they’re all really great mates,” 

Lalor said. 

Lalor said that although he 

was previously a reserve 

assistant coach, taking up the 

role of head coach has been a 

challenge. 

“It involves a lot more time 

and effort and it’s a steep 

learning curve but it’s been 

a really good challenge and 

one that I’ve been enjoying so 

far… it’s been great for me to 

be involved with the group in a 

more involved capacity and the 

support the Club and players 

have given me has been 

fantastic… we’re just really 

looking forward to see how we 

will go over the next couple of 

weeks,” Lalor said. 

The team is excited about the 

finals and Lalor said the side 

won’t be working on anything 

different. 

“We’ve just been 

working around our 

structures all year 

and I think we’ve 

got a really good 

group that have been 

playing really good 

solid team footy 

and playing for 

each other… I think 

they’re confident in 

their ability and the 

game plan… 

“Finals are always a really 

exciting time for any side so I 

think they’re itching to get out 

there … and put in a really good 

performance and see how well 

we can go,” Lalor said. 

In other club news, congratulations 

to Brendan ‘Bubba’ Read, 

who will this weekend play 

his 318th game for the club, 

making him the record holder 

of most club games played for 

Belconnen.

The Greater Western 

Sydney GIANTS have 

reached a massive 

club milestone 

ahead of their last 

home game of the 

2011 season with 10,000 

Foundation Members. 

This Saturday’s clash with 

Eastlake will serve as a 

celebration of this milestone 

with all Foundation Members 

invited to come along and join 

the party. 

One of the most loyal 

members of the Orange Army 

is Paula Strother who has 

travelled all around the 

country with her son to watch 

her team play in 2011. 

“I live in Sydney and am 

originally from Adelaide, 

which is a big AFL state. I grew 

up watching football and over 

50 years of watching it, I’ve 

been to a lot of games. 

I’ve even had babies in prams 

at the footy. 

“It was wonderful news when 

we heard that we would have 

our own team, it’s the best 

thing that ever happened and 

I wish that it had happened a 

few years ago. 

“Basically wherever they go, 

we go. 

“We haven’t missed many 

games this season. We started 

following the team through the 

NAB Cup and NAB Challenge 

games. We travelled to the 

Foxtel Cup game in Melbourne 

and were on the Gold Coast 

last week.” 

Paula said that the main 

difference with joining the 

AFL’s newest club is the 

personal connection that she 

has developed with the staff 

and players over 2011. 

“We were interstate 

members at Adelaide 

so we didn’t really 

have that personal 

connection. This 

club is a real family 

based club and it 

has a family environment. 

“I’ve never come 

across anyone 

who doesn’t have 

a smile on their 

face and they’re 

always really 

approachable.” 

Like many GIANTS 

fans, Paula can see 

a vast difference in 

the squad from the 

beginning of 2011 to 

now on the eve of the 

club’s first NEAFL 

finals series. 

“I’m not in to the 

science of football but 

I can tell the difference 

between when they 

started in the NAB Cup to now. 

“I can see the improvement 

and think that they will 

continue to improve for the 

next two or three years until 

they reach their peak. 

“Get on board because the 

best thing that you could do, 

would be to get your family 

involved with this club,” she 

said.

Tigers captain Ryan Quade battles it out 

with Ainslie’s Michael Ghobrial 

By Michael Minns 

Only a sublime final 

quarter from reigning 

premiers Ainslie 

proved the difference 

between them and the 

Tigers at Dairy Farmers 

Park on Sunday. 

With the scores locked at 11.9.75 

apiece at three quarter time, the 

premiership-winning experience of 

Ainslie’s midfield shone through as 

they secured a 25-point victory. 

The result was a feather in the cap 

of Queanbeyan seeing as Ainslie 

are genuine title contenders, 

second on the ladder only to 

the rampaging Sydney Swans 

Reserves. 

The Tigers have a fantastic chance 

to finish the season on a high this 

weekend against Tuggeranong, 

who became just the second victim 

this season for the bottom-placed 

Belconnen Magpies. 

The tough, physical display against 

the best Canberra team in the 

league was pleasing for Coach 

Adrian Pavese who said that his 

side is progressing well for next 

season. 

“We’re getting better every week,” 

he said. 

“I think we are building in to 

10 

something special for the future.” 

Following the pattern of most of 

the season, the Tigers were led 

once again by their impressive 

young midfield. 

Will Griggs, Todd Dickinson and 

Steve Joliffe were particularly 

impressive having plenty of 

disposals and providing great 

service for their forward line. 

In an imposing physical performance, 

Ainslie finished with just 

one healthy reserve on the bench 

as a result of Queanbeyan’s hard 

attitude at the ball and fearless 

efforts for their teammates. 

Complimenting 

the Tigers efforts 

was an unlikely 

source, Ainslie coach 

Chris Rourke. “We 

really had to dig deep 

in patches and they 

were terrific” he said. 

In a season that has registered 

just three wins, the young Tigers 

have plenty to take in to the off 

season and next pre-season with 

performances like this and their 

young midfield starting to match it 

week-in and week-out with their 

opposition. 

Their final match of the year comes 

this Saturday at 2pm at Diary 

Farmers Park against the fifth 

placed Tuggeranong Hawks. 

Last time for 

the Manual 

Scoreboard. 

Technology has finally reached 

the Tigers Scoreboard. An 

electronic scoreboard should 

be operational at today’s 

game IF it has arrived from the 

USA and IF we have had time 

to install it. IF it isn’t operational 

then today will mark the 

last occasion our seasoned 

volunteers will “man” the 

scoreboard. It has become 

quite an institution with a 

small army of supporters 

assisting our volunteers over 

the far side of the ground. The 

Bright Family have operated 

the scoreboard since our move 

to Dairy Farmers Park in 1979. 

The late Allan Bright along 

with wife Jill and daughter 

Nicole have been the constant 

face of scoreboard operations 

with rarely an error occurring. 

Michael Rutherford has also 

assisted along the way as 

have members of the McClure 

and Beer Families. Our thanks 

and appreciation to everyone 

who has assisted with the 

scoreboard. There could be a 

few tears shed at the close of 

business today (and maybe a 

few wines consumed).


By Natasha Lorenz 

KRUGER MARCHING 

TOWARDS FINALS 

First year Sydney 

Swans Reserves 

player Eugene Kruger 

has certainly 

made his mark on the 

Reserves side including 

best on ground 

performances over 

the course of the 

new NEAFL competition. 

Since playing top up games 

for the Reserves last year 

he was selected to train 

during the pre season with the 

Swans where he was picked 

as a Swans rookie. Kruger has 

seen an improvement in his 

game and the twenty year old 

has the development coaches 

to thank. 

“Seeing Stuart Maxfield 

and Henry Playfair every 

week just trying to work on 

something different and 

making sure I get it right and 

trying to implement it into my 

game. Everything is finally 

starting to come together 

towards the main part of the 

season,” Kruger said. 

Kruger knows that he is still 

in his development stages of 

his career and both coaches 

are role models that not only 

Kruger can look up to but the 

younger players. 

“Maxfield, all he wants is for 

the younger boys to improve 

every week and give their 

best, that is all he asks for. He 

devotes his time every week, 

he does not care if we knock 

on his door and we ask if we 

can have an extra kick or an 

extra handballing session, 

he is always willing to do 

that. That goes the same for 

Playfair,” Kruger said. 

Kruger has been working 

hard and has to change his 

intensity of play to 

take in all the guidance that 

Maxfield and Playfair are 

giving him. 

“I have relly started 

to show some signs 

of improvement that 

I have really put 

in over the years. I 

have taken it step by 

step, whereas at the 

start of the year I 

wanted to try and 

do everything all at 

once,” Kruger said. 

Kruger admits that the Swans 

Reserves have not talked 

too much about winning the 

competition they are just 

trying to play at a consistent 

AFL standard. 

“They challenge us every 

week because they want us 

to be ready for AFL standard 

level so every week we go in 

thinking it does not matter 

who the opposition is as long 

as we give a four quarter 

effort of AFL standard footy,” 

Kruger said. 

The Reserves will remain on 

top of the Eastern Conference 

ladder, regardless of the 

result against Ainslie this 

weekend.

Course 

The Basic 

Umpiring Course 

is an introductory 

course about 

umpiring Australian 

Football outlining 

the basic factors 

that are involved 

in being a field, 

boundary and goal 

umpire. 

The course is not 

intended to fully equip 

a person to umpire 

a senior game of 

football but is seen as 

a way in which people 

who have a passion 

and an interest in 

umpiring football may 

be introduced to some 

of the specifics of this 

Some groups request that the 

course run for a full day or two 

full morning sessions in a similar 

fashion to a seminar. However, it 

is recommended that the course 

be split over a seven week period 

(one 90 minute session a week) 

as running it over one or two days 

generally results in information 

overload. The participants in the 

course will receive a draw-string 

boot bag, the ‘Ultimate Umpire DVD’, 

wrist bands, drink bottle, whistle and 

a cap. If you are interested in running 

the Basic Umpiring Course in your 

club or school please contact 

Jock.Hillgrove@aflnswact.com.au 

With the upcoming AFL9’s competition 

starting in October this would be 

an ideal beginners course for those 

intending to umpire

Eastlake is ready to hit the last round of home and 

away games full of running after a week off with

last hit out before finals and ensure they are well 

prepared for their finals campaign. It’s an exciting 

time coming into finals, and the players and coaches

their support for one of our most important people 

at the Club – Brendan Dorman. A function and

give Brendan a boost and reinforce the standing he 

has at the Club and in AFL in the region.

QUEANBEYAN TIGERS 

TUGGERANONG HAWKS 


Queanbeyan TIGERS 

2:00 PM Sat 27 Aug, Dairy Farmers Park 

Glen Swan (39) Shaun Haidon (33) Gavin Whitehouse (41) 


Last Home and Away 

Today’s game against the Hawks is the final match 

for both Clubs in the first year of the NEAFL – Eastern 

Conference. Neither club will participate in the finals 

series, so you would think nothing is riding on the 

result. Far from it!! 

The Tigers haven’t tasted victory for some time and 

would like nothing better than to end the season on 

a positive note especially in front of many former 

players and coaches who are in attendance as part 

of the Tigers 20 Year Reunion of its 1991 1st Grade 

Premiership team. 

Thanks and Appreciation 

The presentation of our home matches has once 

again been well received this year. In particular our 

merchandise tent which has been manned by Lyn 

MacKenzie for most games assisted by Annette 

Pavese. Thank you for your efforts. There are bargains 

to be gained today with many items marked down as 

an end of year SALE. 

We also thank our many volunteers who have assisted 

in the canteen this season. They are mainly parents 

from our Junior teams who have been rostered on 

during the year. Special appreciation to Di McGinley 

for her untiring efforts throughout the year as chief 

organiser of what has been described as “ the best 

canteen” in the League. Along with Judy Mustard - her 

efforts from 6.30am on match days until close of 

business at the conclusion of the main match is 

greatly appreciated. Also thanks to Belinda and Trevor 

Rootsey and Murrey Lembit who assist regularly. 

The Club would also like to thank members of the 

Queanbeyan West Rotary Club who assist at home 

games by manning the gate and to Mal Corcoran – our 

Growlers bar manager. 

Congratulations. 

Congratulations to our Under 16 Grade Division 1 

and Division 2 teams who have progressed through 

to their respective grand finals and all the very best 

to our Under 14 and Under 12 grade teams who will 

participate in the preliminary finals this weekend. 

“Volunteer of the Week” 

This week’s volunteer of the week is Gerrit “Chief” 

Wanganeen, Gerrit Wanganeen or “Chief” as he is 

affectionately known is a tireless worker for the club, 

either in his role on the Board and Football Committee 

or his management of ground set up on matches days. 

Chief is always there to lend a hand when it is required. 

On behalf of the Board and Members of the club we 

thank him for his support and we look forward to his 

continued support into the future. 

If you would like to become more involved with the 

club in a volunteer capacity please contact Football 

Manager David Graham on 0408 325 753 and we 

would greatly welcome your support.
