AFL Tasmania devotes most of each year to focusing on the future; considering initiatives to grow our game for our community and for the benefit of the next generation of players, coaches, umpires, support staff, administrators and fans. While grand final day is always a special event for the participating clubs and their respective competitions, for AFL Tasmania our Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame is especially dear to our hearts because it is the only time during the year whereby we can pause for a brief moment and celebrate the past. In addition, we cherish the uniqueness of our Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame, which remains the only football event in the nation that enshrines great contributions from individuals, clubs, teams and games on a truly whole of state basis. We also recognise the special and distinctive elements of our great game in Tasmania such as the gravel oval in Queenstown and the King Island Football Association, to mention just two. AFL Tasmania is telling the story of Tasmanian football through our annual Hall of Fame event. In 2013 we induct another ten individuals who have made outstanding contributions to Tasmanian football on and off the playing field. We also elevate two current inductees to ‘Legend’ status and we celebrate two current Legends who become our thirteenth and fourteenth Icons of Tasmanian football. Just reflect on this for a moment: Australian football has been played in Tasmania for almost 150 years and tonight two Legends join just 12 other great football people to become Icons of Tasmanian football—how special is that. On behalf of everyone at AFL Tasmania we hope you enjoy our ninth Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame induction dinner at Wrest Point. Finally, to all new inductees, welcome to our Hall of Fame ‘club’. You all deserve to be thoroughly proud of your individual and collective achievements. I can only pretend to imagine what it must feel like to be elevated to the status of Legend or Icon of Tasmanian football; so to these four gentlemen, on behalf of all Tasmanian football fans, I say congratulations. Your greatness in our game is enshrined forever. Dominic Baker Chairman AFL Tasmania 4 SELECTION CRITERIA CALL FOR NOMINATIONS 2014 1.

Upon his move to the VFL he was transformed by St Kilda into a prototype of the modern attacking full back. Howell played 159 games for the Saints between 1958 and 1968. At the end of the 1959 Brownlow Medal count he was tied with Bob Skilton on 20 votes, and the Medal went to the Swan star on a countback. It was part of St Kilda folklore that Howell may have won outright if he had not been played in the centre in the final game. Thirty years later the VFL saw fit to retrospectively award Verdun Howell his Brownlow Medal. Despite his venturesome spirit—which manifested itself in a tendency to leave his man in order to embark on dashing runs up-field—Howell seldom conceded goals for the simple reason that whenever he pursued the ball he normally got it. In short, he transformed the backing of one's judgement into an art form. Verdun Howell reigned supreme as Victoria’s number one full back until 1965 when St Kilda selectors swapped him with their full forward Bob Murray. However, the transition back to the forward line was gradual and he was on a half back flank when St Kilda won its only senior flag in 1966. Howell almost missed his dream of playing for the flag when he broke his jaw before the finals. Happily however, when the premiership cup was lifted, Howell was present as vice captain alongside skipper Darrel Baldock, providing the Saints with a unique, all-Tasmanian on-field leadership team for their one and only title. As his career drew to a close Howell frequently played on the forward lines and was highly effective; in one game against Hawthorn he booted nine goals. However, it was as a defender that he rose to his greatest heights, winning St Kilda's best and fairest award in 1959, representing the Big V on nine occasions and, to all intents and purposes, re-writing the chapter in the manual of footy entitled "How to Play Full Back". After his retirement as a player, Howell was appointed Assistant Coach to Tom Hafey at Richmond for three years, taking the reserve team to two grand finals – winning one. Afterwards he transferred to WA coaching Claremont for three years taking them to one losing Grand Final. Howell returned to Tasmania for a stint in administration with the Northern Tasmanian Football Association (NTFA in the mid 1970s). He then coached Launceston Football Club for a further two years. He was duly recognised by his home state in 2004 when selected in the Tasmanian 'Team of the Century' and deservedly received a similar honour from both St Kilda and City-South. Verdun Howell became an inaugural inductee in the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame in 2005 and then was elevated to Legend in 2007. CAREER HIGHLIGHTS 159 games, 55 goals, St Kilda, 1958-1968. Brownlow Medal, 1959. St Kilda Best and Fairest, 1959. St Kilda premiership, 1966. City-South premierships, 1954 and 1956. City-South and NTFA Best and Fairest, 1957.

  • Media Release
    Media Release Attention: Sports Editors, Football Writers and Broadcasters Date: Tuesday, 18 May 2010 Subject: Great Club for 2010 announced – Hobart / Cananore to be recognized. EMBARGOED UNTIL – 11am TODAY AFL Tasmania board member, Scott Wade, has announced today at TCA Ground (Hobart) that the great Club selected for induction into the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame in 2010 is the Hobart and Cananore Football Clubs. Football in the city of Hobart has its origins in the early 1840s, but became formalised in the latter half of the 19 th century when Clubs first started to emerge. The Club that was to become what is known as Hobart today has arguably enjoyed the most colourful history of any Club in Tasmania. Prior to World War Two the dominant Club in Tasmanian football was ‘Cananore’ which is indisputably the Club we now know as Hobart. Both Clubs have shared the same colours, ground and players. While we know the origins of the name Hobart are founded on the desire of the TFL to have district football after WW2, the origins of the name Cananore are far more exotic. Cannanore was the British name of a district in India in the 19 th century which is now called by the Hindi ‘Kannur’. The district was an important port on the Arabian Sea and the British military headquarters on India's west coast until 1887. Legend has it that one of the founders of the Cananore Football Club in Hobart in the early 1900s chose the name as they had been based there in earlier years and had brought home a incorrectly spelt name plaque which adorned the entry to a building at which many supporters of the new Club met.

  • The Story of Jim and Phillip Krakouer. by Sean Edward Gorman BA
    Moorditj Magic: The Story of Jim and Phillip Krakouer. By Sean Edward Gorman BA (Hons) Murdoch University A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy At Murdoch University March 2004 DECLARATION I declare that this dissertation is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work, which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. …………………………………. Sean Edward Gorman. ii ABSTRACT This thesis analyses and investigates the issue of racism in the football code of Australian Rules to understand how racism is manifested in Australian daily life. In doing this, it considers biological determinism, Indigenous social obligation and kinship structure, social justice and equity, government policy, the media, local history, everyday life, football culture, history and communities and the emergence of Indigenous players in the modern game. These social issues are explored through the genre of biography and the story of the Noongar footballers, Jim and Phillip Krakouer, who played for Claremont and North Melbourne in the late 1970’s and 1980’s. This thesis, in looking at Jim and Phillip Krakouers careers, engages with other Indigenous footballer’s contributions prior to the AFL introducing Racial and Religious Vilification Laws in 1995. This thesis offers a way of reading cultural texts and difference to understand some Indigenous and non-Indigenous relationships in an Australian context. iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I have often wondered where I would be if I had not made the change from work to study in 1992. In doing this I have followed a path that has taken me down many roads to many doors and in so doing I have been lucky to meet many wonderful and generous people.

Coincidentally, I joined AFL Tasmania as a Director at virtually the same time Andrew became Chief Executive and during my seven years as Chairman of AFL Tasmania our team has worked very closely with Andrew, Gillon McLachlan and other members of the AFL executive management team. The facts speak for themselves; Andrew Demetriou has been an outstanding national leader of our game and in my opinion he has also provided exceptional support and advice to Tasmanian football through AFL Tasmania. The first time I met with Andrew he was very clear about the fact that the AFL must prioritise its development activities in Queensland and New South Wales. The growth of the game in these two northern states will ultimately be to the benefit of a traditional football state such as Tasmania.
