Roos win Premiership

September 17th, 2011

The Tamworth Kangaroos are the Essential Energy TAFL Major Premiers for 2011.

After a tight first quarter, the Roos pulled away from the Saints in the next two quarters at Tamworth No.1 Oval to lead by 50 points at the final break. Despite a fourth quarter rally by the Saints, the match ended with more than a six goal margin to the Roos.

Congratulations to everyone at the Tamworth Kangaroos.

Disappointing end to Season

September 14th, 2011

What had seemed like a very promising season, ended rather abruptly on Saturday with the Nomads being outplayed by Inverell in windy conditions at the Bellevue Oval. The final margin was 28 points, but this was not indicative of the closeness of the contest, with the Nomads always being a chance until the final ten minutes. It was a rather disappointing end to what had at times seemed like a possible Premiership year. More »

Nomads bow out of the finals

September 12th, 2011

From the Armidale Express, 12/09/2011
The New England Nomads suffered their first home loss of the season on Saturday and it proved costly after they bowed out of the Essential Energy AFL competition. The 28 point loss to Inverell Saints in the preliminary final at Bellevue marks the end to a strong but ultimately unsuccessful season for the Nomads where a premiership looked on offer midway through the year.

Nomads caught napping

September 7th, 2011

Perhaps it was the euphoria of the previous week’s victory against Inverell or perhaps it was over-confidence but the Nomads started the game flat-footed, allowing the Tamworth Roos to kick 4.5 to their solitary point, and were never really able to close that gap. The final margin of 58 points was indicative of the difference between the teams on the day. More »
