BC's best player on the day Cashie as always close to the action. Cashie had a great game picking up many possessions and hitting the AB players hard all day. Good luck to Cashie as heads to the States. 

The AB guys got off to a great start leading by several goals at quarter time. Star Cougars forward Dougy Vargo did not last long as he received a big hit to his right eye forcing him from the game. This hit to his eye which Dougy believes was accidental made for great highlights on the Global TV Sports News. We fought back well in the 2^nd quarter and by 3 quarter time lead by 1 point. In the last quarter coach Grills demanded that I continue to play on AB coach Troy Rose when he was in the forward lines, a task that I enjoyed immensely. Rosey lined up at full forward so for the 1^st time in my life I found myself at full back and it was an absolute pleasure as I got to watch the BC onballers and forwards led by Cashie, Luscious, Simon, Josh, Troy, Teddy, Nick, Stewy, Randy, Damien, Simon Cashie etc etc play magnificently to gain a 4 goal lead early in the last quarter. Craig Atwill the Victoria Lions coach at full back played a great game as did Bananabender Stevo in the backlines. We held on for a great victory.

After the game we were presented with the Stampede Cup and then a 25 minute game was held mainly for some of the newer guys for AB that did not get much of a run in the 1^st game. I was very happy with the win as the 25 BC guys all got to play a lot of the game with constant changes taking place thus a very fair victory.

There were many more highlights from this great game and fantastic weekend. As usual there is a more detailed match report on bcfooty.com Click here For some more great photos now on calgarykangaroos.com and Gareth's detailed match report Click here 

It was again great to see Global TV there with the highlights being shown on the 6pm news. This year it was fantastic to see write ups in the Calgary Herald in Friday and Sunday’s sports section. Why was MYKwebTV not there. Well the main reason was because I was playing that’s why! But for some MYKwebTV of the magnificent road that the guys got to travel check out Car Racing MYKwebTV as I drive from Calgary back to BC Click here We look forward to again playing the AB guys in what has become a great Western Canadian Aussie Rules Footy rivalry."

BL&GFA Sth Aussie footy Sth Gawler Lions update! Part of this weeks "In the Lions Den" - Congratulations to the South Gawler Under 15s who were the only Lions football team successful last weekend when we played our traditional rivals Willaston. All other teams tried hard but were not good enough on the day. Congratulations to the Donnybrooks for retaining the ‘Heinrich-McGahan’ Cup which is named after two stalwarts of our respective clubs and football generally. South Gawler is hosting the second semi-final on September 3 and appeals for volunteers to spread the load. If you can help in any capacity and for any time please contact Jim Callander, Lenny McVicar or Peter Mackay as soon as possible.

Congratulations to the hardworking Liam Connolle and Karl Zilm who also represented South Gawler and Central Districts in the 2005 Mid-North Under 14 Country Championships recently. Best wishes to Brad Taylor from Gawler Centrals who is a frequent visitor to our club and whom we hope makes a speedy recovery from injuries sustained in a serious car crash last week.

This weekend is the end of the season for our senior football teams when we play Barossa at the Den. All Lion supporters are strongly encouraged to come to watch their team who have done their best all season and can approach this game with nothing to loose. Why not spend the evening with the players as they enjoy top Adelaide party ‘Frequency’ until late in to the evening at a ‘All-Aussie’ night with prizes for the best dressed. Everyone who loves the ‘Exchange Hotel’ Lions are urged to show their pride and support their team in the easiest possible way – just turn up! As always ‘Go the Lions’!" President Percey

Updated Fri, Aug, 19th 05 "CDN Aussie Footy The Stampede Cup, British Columbia vs Alberta in Aussie Rules Footy this coming Saturday! I can't wait! MYKwebTV from a previous Roos vs Cougars Clash!" Myk Aussie

CDN Aussie Rules Footy Big Jonny and CDN Star Eagles Full Forward Randy arrived in Calgary Wednesday night and were looking to go for a run with the AB guys at Wednesdays night training. I heard that Jonny was preparing for the game today by laying off the booze and spending the day at the Calgary Zoo with his new lady. Lets hope his mind is on footy and not Cwoc's on Saturday afternoon as we will need the big fella playing well in ruck against what will be a strong AB line up. Chriso the AB Kangaroo's star half forward told me today they have 26 guys fired up ready for the big clash.

It appears as it could be a clash of the BC guys vs the AB guys as players from the Burnaby Eagles, Vancouver Cougars and the Victoria Lions will be heading to Calgary to take on the Calgary Kangaroos and the Red Deer Magpies. 

This will be a absolute rippa of a day of Aussie footy on the magnificently shaped Marlborough Park the home of the Big Clash from 2 years ago. I don't want to give too much away but some of the players from the Eagles and Cougars that will be playing this Saturday are Stuart Grills, Peter Campion, Doug Vargo, Matt Neufeld, Ted Murray, Colin Hilton, Chris Freeman, Randy Dicken, John Dixon, Mike Setticasi, Chris Raudoy, Josh Lappin, Paul Lewis, Nick, Damian Chatfield, Shane Gough, Ash Bushell, Simon Bushell, Nelson Ferrett, Steve Harper, Allan Brett, Sammy Dynamite and myself.

All/most of us will be mates after the game but not for the 2 hrs on Saturday as I will be playing for the BC team against my former team the Roos. For the details on how to get to the ground check out me mates at Calgary Kangaroos Click here

Sth Aussie BL&GFA Lions have a win over the Magpies! Part of "In the Lions Den" from President Percey "Congratulations to the ‘Exchange Hotel’ South Gawler A grade who earnt their second win of the season with a hard fought victory over Tanunda at the Den last Saturday. Well done also to the loyal band of Lions supporters who have supported their team all season and were almost as pleased at the players when the siren blew to end the drought. The roof almost lifted off the building as players and supporters sang “Cheer boys” with pride, relief and emotion after the game. Again it was great to see the youngsters making a real contribution not to mention our pocket rocket, Nick Hook. 

All teams from both clubs in all grades can be proud of their efforts in what was a memorable day of country football. Our Under 15s won by about nine goals over the second ranked team which reversed their nine goal loss from the first round. These boys have a real chance at the flag and all Lions are urged to get up early and support our next generation. The Under 17s ran out with 15 players including 3 Under 15s and at quarter time things looked ominous. Having topped their team up with another six Under 15s from the earlier game and as is typical of Cosies team the Lions dug deep and battled the game out right to the end. In fact they actually outscored the Magpies in the last quarter again representing their club with pride and winning the respect of all present. Similarly the Reserves were far from disgraced in another tough opponent who were tuning up for the finals." President Percey

Details from Cougars coach Stuart Grills with my comments included "After a great weekend of footy down in Seattle, ("Refer to my report below" Myk) with two really decent squads of 16 per side, it is now time to focus our attention on the fast approaching Calgary games! 

Here are the details! When - leaving Vancouver on Friday 19th August. The road trip will take between 10-12 hrs. This will include plenty of stops along the way! The game/s is on Saturday 20th. I am hopeful that we will be able to have a squad of 24 minimum so we can field a full team - we will likely be playing as a combined BCFooty team (like on the road trip to Victoria at the start of the year!). However, if we get enough interest we could field Burnaby and Vancouver teams! ("Come on guys lets get 2 teams so we can show our BC footy strength! If not and we play as a combined team and we get more Eagles there than Cougars does that mean we wear the magnificent Blue & Gold Eagles jerseys?" Myk)

We will have a big night out visiting Cowboys for sure! ("Wow! The barmaids with their "Great Big silicon tities will be there" of course but minus Charlene who is over here with us now." Myk) and all travellers will be encouraged to have a great time.

The following is a list of players booked on the trip. I will update the list throughout the week.  There is no cap on attendance and I encourage everyone to consider this fantastic trip! Confirmed: 1. Stuart Grills, 2. Peter Campion, 3. Chris Freeman, 4. Matt Neufeld, 5. Randy Dicken (driving own vehicle), 6. Myk Aussie (driving own vehicle), 7. Colin Hilton, 8. Doug Vargo .........................." Stewy Grills 

Wow! The early tally is 4 Eagles, 4 Cougars. I look forward to watching this list and the great team/s that we will take to Cowtown to take on my former team the Calgary Kangaroos and the new Red Deer Magpies. Be there or be square!

AFL Week 19 results

CDN and USA Aussie Footy. The Burnaby Eagles and the Vancouver Cougars headed to Seattle early Saturday morning to take on each other and the Seattle Grizzles. It was a great day of Aussie footy in Seattle and a great weekend, the Eagles Mooses Downunder guys that I was part off finally making it back to Vancouver at 10pm Sunday night.  Thanks to Mooses Downunder we headed down in a magnificent vehicle just getting there in time after a lengthy border stopover. It was a hot day playing on the very hard and uneven Washington High School fields but it was still a lot of fun.

Us Eagles defeat the Grizzles in game 1, the Cougars defeated the Grizzles in game 2 and then again this year the Huge rivalry continued as the Eagles and Cougars fought it out in the final game to decide the tournament champs. The Eagles lead early but the Cougars came back in the last quarter to defeat the Eagles by 6 points thus closing the gap, Eagles 4 to Cougars 3 in this magnificent 05 series. 

As some of the "married or under the thumb or softie players or maybe me mates that are simply more sensible and mature than I" headed back to Canada late at night some of us Eagles stayed at the Kangaroo and Kiwi until closing and thus had a great night. On Sunday we enjoyed the Air show on Washington Lake with the rich American's and then headed back with the aim of a few ales on the way home to top off a great trip. Well these few ales were certainly memorable as the 2 Shane's, Steve and I stopped off at the magnificent Tulalip Casino to enjoy very nicely priced beers and great scenery. This was definitely a fun time as we enjoyed hours of great chat and beer at the bar with some very nice ladies in the magnificent establishment. 

I'm sure there will be many more stories from the weekend as approx 10 of the Eagles and Cougars stayed downtown for the night and no doubt they hit the downtown clubs and pubs. One story I did hear today was Cougars coach Stew Grills was horrid on the way home after having a big day coaching and playing. A new Cougar today told me Stew one of the drivers decided to go on a late night venture taking a different route home that took 5 hrs! The player that told me this was a little amazed at Stewy's road trip non-skills. 

A special mention must go to my mate Big Jonny who after having a bad ankle and being soft by falling "In luv" very easily in Canada played both games for the Eagles. Not only did Big Jonny play two games but he played on no sleep at all as the Big fella decided to stay out all night Friday night and then come to Seattle to play. A Big but Crazy effort I must say. 

I have also just leant that our leader, Eagles coach and onballer Chris Freeman has taken the two recent losses to the Cougars badly and is in some trouble.
