Also, it would be remiss not to note the sterling seven-year effort of former CEO Marty Atkins, who came in seven years ago to lift respect for the Perth jumper from “Strong leadership requires players as well as opponents, and we wish him well in his new role at his original club South Fremantle [except when they play Perth].

A quiet achiever that gets the job done, the skipper of the Swans will become just the 20th player in the club’s illustrious history to reach the coveted milestone. Riggio began his WAFL journey at Peel Thunder with one game, before being selected by North Melbourne at Pick 28 in the 2005 AFL National Draft. After playing 10 AFL games in three seasons before being delisted by North Melbourne in 2009, Riggio returned to Western Australia and joined the Swan Districts Football Club at the peak of their powers. One year in, Riggio reached the ultimate goal, a Premiership. Alongside the likes of Andrew Krakouer, Stephen Coniglio and Ashley Hansen, Riggio lived out the boyhood dream of claiming a Premiership Medal. The game is remembered as one of the greatest WAFL Grand Finals of all-time, with Krakouer kicking a late goal to seal the Premiership by 1 point. Riggio never looked back from 2010, becoming a stalwart of the black and white army, claiming back-to- back Best & Fairest awards in 2015 and 2016. “To win the Club Best & Fairest in 2015 and again the next season is something I will hold dear to my heart,” Riggio told swandistrictsfc.com.au u Matt Riggio earlier this season.

  • Fuse Lit on Fireworks Ban in Minden Hills by Mark Arike Some New Restrictions Could Be Imposed on the Use and Sale of Fireworks in the Township of Minden Hills
    HALIBURTON COUNTY’S INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPER FREE 7,500 copies TheHighlanderThursday 16 August 2012 | Issue 45 Fuse lit on fireworks ban in Minden Hills By Mark Arike Some new restrictions could be imposed on the use and sale of fireworks in the Township of Minden Hills. During their Aug. 9 committee of the whole meeting, councillors shared their concerns, as well as concerns expressed by their constituents, over the noise and other disturbances caused by those setting off fireworks on a regular basis. “I have received a number of phone calls, e-mails and letters… about the loud noise, fireworks and partying,” said Ward 1 Councillor Brigette Gall, who brought the issue forward at the meeting. Gall, who lives in town, said she often hears fireworks going off and people shouting at one another. A ratepayer who recently retired to the area with her husband contacted Gall to tell her about her encounter with a neighbour who had been keeping her up at night by setting off fireworks. “They are continually being kept awake at night by the fireworks, firecrackers and the ensuing parties which happen,” said Gall. The woman once asked her neighbours to stop and they came out with a copy of the township’s noise bylaw. “They said there’s nothing you can do about it.” Gall said the township’s current noise bylaw is very limited. “It does not define the parameters within which you can make noise, the hours you can make noise, what constitutes unfair or unreasonable noise,” she said. Other municipalities, said Gall, have clearly identified the restrictions in their noise bylaws.

  • The History of the South Fremantle Football Club
    The History of the South Fremantle Football Club South Fremantle Football Club, nicknamed The Bulldogs, is a semi-professional Australian Rules Football Club and one of nine clubs that compete in the West Australian Football League (WAFL). It was formed in 1900 and has its training, administration and home games at Fremantle Oval. History The Fremantle Football Club (originally known as Unions and unrelated to either an earlier club which actually played rugby as well, or the current AFL club of the same name) had won ten premierships in the fourteen years that they were in the WA Football Association (now known as the West Australian Football League). By 1899, however, the club suffered from financial problems that caused the club to disband. The South Fremantle Football Club was formed to take their place following an application to the league by Griff John, who would be appointed secretary of the new club, with Tom O'Beirne the inaugural president. Most players, however, were from the defunct Fremantle club. The new club did well in its first year, finishing runners-up. However, over the next three seasons the performance fell away badly and, in April 1904 a Fremantle newspaper confidently reported that South Fremantle would not appear again. However, the club decided to carry on and centreman Harry Hodge took over as skipper, but the season was a disaster. The club won only one game. They won their first premiership in 1916 and went back-to-back in 1917, both times defeating their local rivals, East Fremantle in the final and challenge final.

  • A'court, BILL (West Adelaide)
    A A’COURT, BILL (West Adelaide): Acourt was placed on Oliver and to keep this man from taking his sensational marks gives a man plenty to do. Acourt did not let him do too much, and played a good game beside.1 Father of star West Adelaide ruckman of the 1950s Fred A’Court (profiled below), Bill A’Court was a strong defender who also played with West. He debuted with the club in 1909, and was a key member that same year of its winning grand final team against Port Adelaide. He went on to play in the premiership sides of 1911 and 1912 as well. From 1909 to 1915 A’Court played 83 SAFL games and kicked four goals. A’COURT, FRED (West Adelaide): Fred A’Court was a stalwart of West Adelaide sides during the club’s nightmare decade of the 1950s, when four grand finals were contested without success, all against Port Adelaide. He commenced with West in 1949, and over the ensuing 11 seasons played a total of 159 league games and kicked 110 goals. In January 1954, A’Court applied for a clearance to VFL club Richmond, claiming that, if he made the move, he would be £15 a week better off financially, but West Adelaide refused the application and he continued to play for the Blood and Tars for the remainder of his career. A tough, tireless and talented ruckman, A’Court - popularly known as ‘Boof’ - represented South Australia eight times, kicking 10 goals. AAMODT, COLIN (North Adelaide): In a brainy display of football Aamodt showed all the fleetness of foot that enabled him to run a place in a Stawell Gift.
