Well some interesting names on here one of which could be a big out on the SANFL IN and OUTS thread.

http://www.ntnews.com.au/article/2008/12/20/22801_ntsport.html

Very interesting that one Charlie Sharples has been named to play in teh AFLQ next year rather than the SANFL.

Some other interesting names are the ex PAM players Jarod and cameron Illet, Iggy Vallejo from Norwood, Ben Ah Matt and Charlie Maher Glenelg, and Shannon Motlop North.

Seems like Gilbert Fishook is an out at Seaton Ramblers too

it would also be simon munkara who was at south adelaide a few years back and shannon rusca who was a lion and might of spent some time at west adelaide if memory serves me correctly.
will be interesting to see how the team goes with games in darwin (5), alice (4) and brisbane, cairns and townsville impacts on thier success. will defineately give those players with higher aspirations an indication of whats involved in terms of travel. Good to see i have another team to support, go you thunder.

The AFLQ competition kicks off on April 4 with the Northern Territory-Southport game at TIO Stadium, Darwin.


There certainly are a few familiar SANFL names in there like mentioned...

Karl Lohde also played a few seasons with Port Magpies as did Byron's younger brother Dustin Pickett. Shannon Rusca was at Westies, as was Ashley Wedding and Munkara did have a season or 2 out at South Adelaide.

Stephen Brookes played a few years and Centrals and then finished up at Sturt before heading up North for work, good to see him in the squad. I think David May might have played a bit of 2's footy down at Unley as well.

I ave seen a bit of NTFL footy in years gone by and Ephrem Tipungwuti is a freak, keep an eye out for him, he will set the comp alight I reckon. Some pretty handy and familiar names in the squad, good luck to the boys and of course Stuart Totham in 2009.

Roy Kantilla from the Tiwi Bombers is one to watch

if he makes the team (which he will) he will come to close attention by the recruiting scouts

interestingly Stewie Totham told me Sturt rated Sharples higher than Cameron Stokes who went to Hawthorn

this will be a good side to watch!

Good to see the Ilett boys doing well. Used to play against Lohde in school footy. Pretty sure he captained Ports reserves or U19s team back around 01-02. Dusty Pickett will be an out for the reserves team.

Definitely some interesting names in there.
