Photo by Tigers striving Belinda Pike for Swift success “The primary focus has been on my finance degree at UWA, which I completed last year. I am desperate to learn, so on top of university I have been seeking exposure to as many different things as possible! “I had a horrible run of injuries at the start of this year. I had work commitments over summer and as a result was unable to do any football specific training over from November through to January. “That really set me back because every time I thought I was ready to go, my body would break down. I managed a few half games of reserves sporadically over the course of the year before finally getting a string of games together at the end of the year and breaking back into the league side “I still get to go out every week (well for seven weeks so far this year) with a group of really good mates and have a lot of fun. “In the end you play for each other. You want to be able to look your mate in the eye at the end of the day and share that feeling of trust and respect. No better time to establish that than during finals.” The last time the Tigers and the Royals met was in Round 20 when it was the Royals who walked away with a 10-point victory. Swift said they had their chances that day. “We had our chances but in the end they were the better side on the day,” he said. “I don’t think we have to change a huge amount. “Finals footy is a completely different ball game and we feel we are a team that is primed to seize the opportunity we have. It won’t be easy, but that’s the way we like it.” TOM SWIFT’S FINALS APPEARANCES 2010 Second semi-final win over Swan Districts (50 points) Grand final loss to Swan Districts (one point) 2011 Second semi-final win over West Perth (85 points) Grand final win over Subiaco (56 points) 2012 Second semi-final win over Swan Districts (32 points) Grand final win over East Fremantle (26 points) WAFL finals format Elimination and qualifying finals – Sunday, September 6 Elimination final – East Perth (4th) v Claremont (5th) Qualifying final – West Perth (2nd) v Peel (3rd) 1st & 2nd semi-finals – Sunday, September 13 “We strongly believe we 1st semi-final - winner elimination final v loser qualifying final have the team and the 2nd semi-final – Subiaco (1st) v winner qualifying final Preliminary final – Sunday, September 20 systems to give the finals Winner 1st semi-final v loser second semi-final a real shake.” Tom Swift Grand final – Sunday, September 27 Winner 2nd semi-final v winner preliminary final 6 by Sean Cowan Collectables During 2015, the Football Budget will again feature a section on WAFL memorabilia and invites you to write or email if you want more information about the football collectables you have tucked away at home.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Elise and the Gold Gloop by S.B. Davies S.B
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Elise and the Gold Gloop by S.B. Davies S.B. Davies. At the age of six, my daughter was a good reader for her age, but refused to start reading “proper books” with chapters and no pictures. She was bored with “Horrid Henry” and fairies saving a rainbow yet once more and insisted that she was old enough to read proper books, but every one she tried was “too difficult”. It wasn’t she couldn’t read them, it was the concepts and storylines; they were all designed for nine and ten year olds. There was another problem too. She wanted to read about girls, yet all the books about girls we could find were twee and dull. My daughter is happy to read about a princess, along as she is a Ninja Princess; happy to save rainbows, as long as it involves a good sword fight or perhaps a well-planned heist. After a few months of this, my lovely daughter stopped reading. We tried most of the “first chapter books” that people recommend; all met with disinterest. So I asked her exactly what she wanted in a “proper book”. After much though, she wrote down: “Dragons, princess, zombies, vampires, ghosts, but not spiders and it should be funny and scary and have fighting in it.” We couldn’t find such a book with concepts and vocabulary suitable for a six year old – so I wrote one. I had written novels before, but not a children’s book, so I had help from my daughter to find the right level.

  • Sas Resources Fund History 1996-2016
    SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 5 SAS RESOURCES FUND HISTORY 1996-2016 November 2016 SPECIAL AIR SERVICE RESOURCES FUND 6 FOREWORD If there was one single glimmer of light to emerge from the ashes of the 1996 Blackhawk disaster, it would certainly be the creation of the Special Air Service Resources Fund. While the unit was understandably reeling from its worst ever loss, and rightfully focused on rebuilding the short notice Counter Terrorism capability that Australia relies upon it to provide, a selfless group of individuals coalesced, unprompted, and set about creating this amazing institution. In doing so, they reacted swiftly, decisively and generously; and have continued to ever since. The 20 years since the Blackhawk tragedy represents about a “generation” within the Special Air Service Regiment; the unit’s most senior soldiers today were young troopers or lance corporals back in 1996 when the accident occurred. Sadly, during that generation, almost every single member of the unit has experienced the loss of a friend in training or combat. But on each occasion, in the midst of their grief, our men and women have also seen the Fund immediately step into action. As a result, we have witnessed the children of our fallen mates grow up, being cared for by the Fund. No one can replace a lost father or husband but through its financial support and empathy, the Fund provides a backbone of solace in this darkest of situations. By virtue of this fact, every time our soldiers step forward into the breach, they do so confident in the knowledge that should they fall in the service of this country, the Fund has their back, and will continue to take care of that which is most precious to them.
