Glenorchy Magpies vs Clarence Kangaroos – Round 2

After their bye in Round 1, Glenorchy kicked off their season against rivals Clarence at home on Saturday Afternoon.

Both teams battled the elements with strong winds and inconsistent showers to contend with at KGV.

Clarence maintained control for the first half and enjoyed a 24-point lead at half time.

Glenorchy managed to fight back in the third and heading into the final break scores were level at 52-52.

Clarence were eventually too strong in the third quarter as they booted 5 goals to eventually win by 33-points.

Glenorchy’s Ben Kamaric was the obvious best on ground as he ended up with a game high 5 goals and 30 disposals.

He led from the front in Glenorchy’s 3rd quarter fightback, the star midfielder was involved in all 5 of Glenorchy’s comeback goals snagging 4 himself.

Clarence’s dominance in the midfield and strong connection into the forward half is what won them the game in the 4th Quarter.

Recruit North Hobart Baxter Norton and Jarrod Harper are developing as a strong wing duo for Clarence both racking up 25 disposals.

Ethan Jackson is proving to be one of the main players to watch this season backing up his display of 35 disposals against Lauderdale in round 1 with 26 this week.

Clarence will enjoy their first home game of the season this weekend against North Launceston at Blundstone Arena, while Glenorchy will welcome Lauderdale to KGV on Saturday.

TSL coaches have their say on the Devils future

With Tasmania Devils pathway manager Cameron Joyce leaving his post to coach Gold Coast’s AFLW side, there’s an important vacancy to fill for the future of Tasmanian football development. In the wake of this, the coaches of the Tasmanian State Leagye have voiced their opinions on the current state of the Devils program and highlight potential candidates for the vacant role. Kingborough Tigers coach Trent Baumeler reacted to suggestion the vacancy could be his, reinforcing the loyalty with his current side. “Not for me personally, I’ve made a commitement to a group of players,” he said. “I could never see myself turning my back on this group and searching for greener pastures.” First year TSL senior coach   Daniel Willing is still adjusting to his new role and wants to solidify his position at Lauderdale. “With how I’ve been thrust into the position I’m in at the moment, my concentration lies (at Lauderale),” he said. “I’m a Lauderdale Football Club person now. I’m in discussion with th

Hyperdrive Grand Finale Season 2

  Source: Hyperdrive Kart Racing Facebook Last Wednesday night it was finally time for our second Champion League Grand Finale, and what a night it was. The six best drivers from our two-league nights battled it out for the chance to take home both the winner’s trophy and a year’s worth of free racing at Hyperdrive.   This seasons Grand Finale was an evolution of the first. The added factor of a pitstop both during qualifying and the race was sure to spice things up. During the 20-lap qualifying session all drivers had to set a time in both Sodi and Shifter Karts. Their best lap ties from each Karts were then added together to determine the starting grid for the 60-lap endurance race. In the race, all drivers started in Sodi Karts and had to complete a minimum of 10 laps before making a pitstop and switching over to Shifters. This meant that individual strategies had now become an important factor of the race.   After setting their qualifying lap times in both Karts it was Duncan t

Why are we still racing at Monaco?

  For more than 90 years, Monaco has served up some spectacular racing at the glittering Monte Carlo harbour, but just how good is it today? When the F1 calendar is released each year there are several races that fans highlight. This can be their home Grand Prix, or some of the races almost guaranteed to serve up good racing, such as Silverstone, Azerbaijan and Spa. Many fans circle Monaco as one of their most anticipated races, but should they? Does the Monaco GP still have the entertainment value to match the highest tier of racing circuits? The governing body of Formula 1 (FIA) state that the specifications for track width should be between 12-15 metres to avoid congestion. On average, Monaco is 9-10 metres wide with its narrowest point being the between the swimming pool complex and Rascasse at seven metres. Over the last 20 years, the average number of overtakes at each Grand Prix is roughly 25-30. The average number of overtakes at Monaco is 10-15. Due to its tight nature and sho
