  2. All eyes now on Mr Coad to see if he allocates himself another crucial Penvonport game

    2. Good to see your still salty and looking for excuses already.

    3. Lions took no points ..and then there was two.., who meet on final day of season .. if tas football can't make more of this than it being just one game of four played simultaneously..well, last one out turn off the lights. Suggested Sunday but maybe Saturday evening is more practicable.
      Not a supporter of either but the game deserves some special attention.

  3. In the interests of a fair play, the old mate with the Penvonport issue needs to grow up and depart! Gees get over it. I’m annoyed with myself for responding to you!

    1. In the interest of fair play the game deserves an official who is well respected and gets the big calls right. All genuine followers want that. The game needs the best referee. Simple.

    2. Anon 10:25 good luck finding one of those in Tasmania.

    3. So your a support of refs or a disgruntled and sour person haha

  4. If they are switched on, Football Tas need to get in touch with every TV/radio/newspaper outlet in south and north-west on Monday to pump this title-deciding clash up during the week, along with flooding their own social media accounts. Leave the game at the current starting time of 2.30 - better chance of getting it on TV news bulletins that night.

    1. Have you not seen Football Tasmania’s social media accounts?!?! You think they are capable of promoting a game of this magnitude accordingly?

      Delete
    2. Ah just had a look at it. Do they just run participation competitions now?

      Delete
    3. To be fair, the changes to FT’s marketing recently seem to be positive. The content going on the different social media channel is a great step in the right condition. I’d be more worried about how this translates to the local papers that seem to have forgotten the sport exists

    4. Just scoured the websites of the three main daily's to find a wrap of Saturday's action. You're in luck if you like Aussie rules!
      Didn't Devonport's U21s and WSL teams wrap their leagues in recent weeks? Not even a mention in the Advocate.

    5. Let’s hope the Croats give out free vuvuzela‘s on entry, deck the builders fencing with red white and blue and FFT find the coin to have a speaker and a microphone to announce the players onto the pitch

    6. Football Tasmania’s recent changes to their marketing may be an improvement, but importantly an improvement on something that had such a low base for starters.

      It has a fair way to go to be at an acceptable level, and there’s absolutely no need for it to be sub-standard. They employee people for such roles and wouldn’t have any issues finding the right people in this space if they actually cared.

  5. Knights have no chance from what I seen yesterday

    1. Yes they were lucky to get away with the 1st goal as it was blatantly offside but a win is a win and both sides had to play the conditions

    2. Mearns is clearly onside but clarence will always be the sad sob story

      Delete
  6. To be fair Clubs and Walter promote the game the best ,Football Tasmania has lacked for years in this area .

    I am sure Walter and Tanner can promote the game to the level it deserve.

    2. Croatia only have to draw to win the title

    3. Who are Croatia? Aren’t they a country?

  9. Devonport to win it with a dodgy penalty would be great

    ReplyDelete
  10. Wouldn't it be great to see some real input from FFT this week - promoting the title decider.

    Make it a 4.30pm kick off to allow players from all grades to attend.
