Afl from the Editor www.sydneyafl.com.au www.sydneyafl.com.au AFL FROM THE EDITOR Who would believe we are nearly halfway P W L D % Pts through the season, with Representative Geelong 9 9 0 0 144.4 36 football kicking off next weekend. Collingwood 9 8 1 0 167.0 32 Hawthorn 9 7 2 0 131.4 28 Carlton 9 6 2 1 126.0 26 This time of season also means Representative football is almost upon us. Next weekend, the cream of the crop in Sydney football will be taking the field representing the League in Newcastle and Cairns. Essendon 9 5 3 1 133.1 22 Sydney 9 5 3 1 100.0 22 The Senior squad will be playing at Cazaly Stadium against the best players from the Cairns competition. A strong side, under the tutelage of Michael Cousens, is expected to represent the League with only a few players unavail- West Coast 9 5 4 0 119.5 20 able. The side picked will be looking to post a win after falling short against the Victorian Amateurs last year in Mel- Fremantle 9 5 4 0 119.5 20 bourne. Richmond 10 4 5 1 90.6 18 The Under 23 Development squad will also have a tough assignment against the Riverina League at Newcastle‘s No. 1 Sportsground, which recently hosted the Swans Reserves and Ainslie, in the NEAFL competition. The Under Melbourne 9 3 5 1 98.8 14 23‘s come into the fixture in winning form after taking out last year‘s Regional Championships in Wagga Wagga. St Kilda 9 3 5 1 96.6 14 Riverina will be keen to avenge for their round-robin loss in the Championships to the Sydney squad. Both sides have been training well, with this weekend‘s Premier Division matches also acting as the last chance for Western Bulldogs 9 3 6 0 90.0 12 individuals to impress in club colours. Final squads will be announced next week- stay tuned to the AFL Sydney Adelaide 9 3 6 0 83.3 12 website for further details. North Melbourne 9 2 7 0 88.0 8 In Premier Division action on the weekend, most matches went to script, with the top three sides winning and remain- ing locked at the top of the ladder on ‗Match Ratio.‘ Brisbane 9 2 7 0 86.0 8 Sydney University arguably face the toughest assignment of the ladder-topping sides against North Shore at home Port Adelaide 10 2 8 0 70.7 8 this weekend. Uni were not at their best against Western Suburbs, and were held goalless for over a quarter in their 45-point win. Impressive, however, was the fact they had eleven individual goalkickers in their fifteen-goal final tally. Gold Coast 8 2 6 0 53.2 8 The ‗bye‘ has been a poisoned chalice for the majority of sides in the AFL, so it will be interesting to see if it has a negative impact on North Shore, as they were in strong form before the break. At the Village Green, UNSW/ES will need their best performance of the season to topple the top-placed East Coast Carlton 13.15-93 def. Melbourne 6.10-46 on Saturday afternoon. The Bulldogs were challenged in their 18-point win over St George, with midfielder-cum- forward, Max Collett influential on the final result. The Eagles have been deadly in front of goal, with the top two Sydney 10.12-72 def. North Melbourne 9.17-71 goalkickers on the competition set to line up on Saturday afternoon. St Kilda 15.12-102 def Fremantle 7.14-56 Geelong 21.13-139 def Gold Coast 10.13-73 At North Dalton Park, Illawarra will start favourites against Western Suburbs, who have struggled with only one win to Port Adelaide 13.11-89 def Richmond 10.14-74 their name. A loss could be the final blow for the Magpies, but will have a chance against Illawarra, who were flat last week after a resurgence in form in recent weeks, against Pennant Hills. Brisbane 15.11-101 def Adelaide 8.13-61 There are also two Premier Division matches on Sunday, including one at Drummoyne Oval, where Balmain host St Collingwood 16.9-105 def West Coast 7.11-53 George. St George were more competitive last week, registering more scoring shots against the Bulldogs, and they will need to convert every opportunity to stretch Balmain who comfortably won a high-scoring affair against Camp- Hawthorn 13.13-91 def Western Bulldogs 9.8-62 belltown. In the final match, the two bottom sides face off with the Blues playing off against UTS. One side will sign Essendon Bye their club song for the first time in 2011. Last weekend‘s action again showed the evenness of the competition with the previously undefeated sides in Divi- sion One, Two and Three suffering their first losses of the season. ROUND 11 ROUND 12 On the other end of the table, the club song was sung loudly at Camden, with the Cats Senior side notching up their Friday Friday Essendon v Melbourne @ MCG St Kilda v Western Bulldogs @ Etihad first win in Division Two against Balmain. Only in the second round, Camden were at the receiving end of an 116- Saturday Saturday point defeat at the hands of the Dockers.

  • Edition 1 April 2, 2021 Official Publication of the Wafl $3.00
    OFFICIAL PUBLICATION OF THE WAFL $3.00 EDITION 1 APRIL 2, 2021 INTRODUCING THE 2021 Optus WAFL Premiership Season They say a week is a long time in footy, but this past 12 months has felt nothing short of an eternity for football across the country. It’s been exactly 382 days since the WAFL was stopped in its tracks on the eve of the 2020 campaign by COVID-19, thus beginning the slogan of a ‘season like no other.’ The competition stopped then started but looked entirely different; 16-minute quarters, a nine-round season and a top four finals series. It was WAFL football, but not as we knew it. Fortunately, unlike most other State Leagues, the WAFL was able to complete a season, with the undoubted highlight taking place in the last game of the year. 10,000 fans packed Fremantle Community Bank Oval to witness a fitting Grand Final between South Fremantle and Claremont. The arm wrestle of a contest thrilled spectators and fans around the state, with the Bulldogs finishing three-point victors and deserved Premiers. We arrive at the beginning of the 2021 Optus WAFL Season with renewed optimism. The competition returns to 20 rounds. Quarters change back to 20 minutes plus time on. The five best teams will battle it out in the WAFL Finals Series. And the West Coast Eagles return to the u Keegan Knott competition.

    ECONOMICS AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE 2021 ESTIMATES PRE-HEARING QUESTION ON NOTICE No. 1 THE ECONOMICS AND GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE ASKED THE MINISTER FOR TOURISM INDUSTRY DEVELOPMENT AND INNOVATION AND MINISTER FOR SPORT (HON S HINCHLIFFE) ― QUESTION: With reference to page 4 of the Department of Tourism, Innovation and Sport Service Delivery Statements, and the reference to promoting long term growth to the tourism industry, will the Minister provide an update on the Year of Indigenous Tourism? ANSWER: On 19 July 2020, the Honourable Annastacia Palaszczuk MP, Premier and Minister for Trade, extended the Year of Indigenous Tourism to 2021 due to the impacts of COVID-19. The Palaszczuk Government is investing $10 million over two years for Indigenous tourism development and growth as part of the Year of Indigenous Tourism. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander tourism experiences are an iconic part of Queensland’s tourism sector and a strong economic driver, as the sector supported $505 million in visitor expenditure and employed nearly 2500 people on a full-time basis before the COVID-19 pandemic. Key initiatives of the Year of Indigenous Tourism include: • $7 million Growing Indigenous Tourism in Queensland Fund • Our Country Tourism Business Development Service • Advance Queensland One Business program, for Indigenous business innovators and entrepreneurs • Indigenous experience, marketing, festivals and events • The scoping of the potential to establish a peak Indigenous tourism body. Under the Growing Indigenous Tourism in Queensland Fund, 24 businesses received funding of up to $25 000 to develop business concepts and feasibility studies for new growth of Indigenous tourism product or experiences, while nine businesses received funding of up to $1 million to deliver a new tourism attraction, experience or built infrastructure.

  • Sydeny AFL Season Opener Release 2
    MEDIA RELEASE - AFL (NSW/ACT) Wednesday, April 2 Henson Park to host five Sydney AFL matches this Saturday With the celebrations for 150 years of Australian Football underway, Sydney AFL will be creating some history of its own this weekend, with an entire round of senior football scheduled over one day at Henson Park for the season opener. This Saturday, footy fans will be treated to over 12 hours of Australian Football action, with all five Round One matches of the Sydney AFL taking place at the newly renovated facility. Henson Park, home of the Newtown Jets, has recently undergone a $250,000 upgrade, and this will be the first opportunity for Sydney AFL to take centre stage at the refurbished ground. Garry Burkinshaw, Senior Football Operations Coordinator for AFL (NSW/ACT) said that this was an exciting milestone for the Sydney AFL competition and signaled the leagues continued development as a premier sporting competition. “This is an important year for Australian Football across all levels of competition and Sydney AFL is no exception. As a competition the standard and support is growing rapidly and being able to provide fans with an entire day and night of Australian Football is a fantastic opportunity. “It is also the perfect platform to showcase some of the emerging talent coming through. Fans will be able to see the next generation of AFL stars in action with many of the NSW Rams players taking part in matches, along with some of the AFL Scholarship holders,” said Burkinshaw. The Sydney AFL competition has developed some true champions over the years with no less than 13 players currently on AFL lists.

WE’VE LAUNCHED A NEW PUBLIC-FACING BRAND - SPORT AUSTRALIA – WITH A RENEWED VISION FOR AUSTRALIA TO BE THE WORLD’S MOST ACTIVE SPORTING NATION, KNOWN FOR ITS INTEGRITY, SPORTING SUCCESS AND WORLD-LEADING SPORTS INDUSTRY. This aligns with the Australian Government’s long-term vision for sport in this country, outlined in Sport 2030, released in August 2018 by Minister for Sport Bridget McKenzie. Sport Australia will be central to delivering the priorities outlined in this national sport plan. At the fundamental level, Sport Australia’s focus will be on getting Australians moving through sport and, more broadly, physical activity. We want to inspire and activating people across every age, race, gender, cultural background and physical ability. We will continue to build partnerships in the health and education sectors to ensure physical activity is a confidence in what our athletes stand for and how they carry national priority.
