Some of the biggest and baddest names in AFL football will converge on Tasmania this weekend for the annual Relive the Rivalry charity match at George Town on Saturday.
The match pays homage to the state’s historic 1990 State of Origin win over the Big V at North Hobart Oval, which is in the Tasmanian Football Hall of Fame as one of Tassie’s all-time great games.
Former Port Adelaide ruckman and Power coach Matthew Primus headlines the Victorian line-up, which includes former Hawks and Suns bad boy Campbell Brown and former Carlton and Brisbane spearhead Brendan Fevola, former Swans captain courageous Brett Kirk, former Richmond onballer Nick Daffy, three-time Lions premiership player Darryl White, and former North Melbourne defender Majak Daw.

Tasmania’s line-up includes former Test spinner Xavier Doherty, former Brisbane onballer Adrian Fletcher, whose son Jaspa played in the Lions premiership last weekend, as well as Paul Hudson, Russell Robertson, Simon and Paul Atkins, and former Tiger Michael Gale.
The event has raised $170,000 over 11 years and Food Bank Tasmania will be the beneficiary again this year.
“We’d love to emulate what we did at North Hobart last year when we raised $40,000, which equated to 80,000 meals for Food Bank’s breakfast in schools program,” said event director Jaimes Wiggins.
“When we heard that 2500 kids statewide don’t get a breakfast, it inspired us to help out and really struck a chord with the players.”
Former VFL star and Glenorchy TSL coach Paul Kennedy, now Brighton’s SFL coach, will play for his home state Victoria.
“I moved here seven years ago and planned to stay for two years, and now I’ll probably never leave,” Kennedy said.


“I remember the day Tassie had that famous win over Victoria and that was one of the things that intrigued me about coming here, the history of Tasmanian football and being part of that and helping it re-grow again.”

It will be local star Trent Standen’s third rivalry match, he says a privilege to play among former AFL stars.
“You have to pinch yourself at times,” he said.
“The first time I played it was quite daunting _ some of the physiques on the players are a lot bigger than they look on TV.
“But it’s great fun and a great day _ hopefully I get on the end of a few and make things exciting.”

Defenders in the Eastern league’s Premier Division are set to have their hands full with Doncaster East’s latest addition.
Former AFL forward Josh Schache has signed at the Lions for next season after his 76-game career in the big-time came to a close.
The 199cm talent was taken by the Brisbane Lions with pick No. 2 in the 2015 national draft before stops at the Western Bulldogs and Melbourne, kicking 79 goals.
He was delisted from the Demons at the end of this season after just four matches.
Now 27, the ex-Murray Bushranger links with former Bulldogs teammate Tim O’Brien at Zerbes Reserve.
“They’re good mates and he’s also got a connection through one of our other players,” Doncaster East president Peter Sowersby said.
“It’s probably been a five-week process since he got delisted.
“He was pretty keen to get on the front foot and speak to us about playing.”

Sowersby said Schache would fill a key post in attack – freeing up O’Brien who played as a focal point this season, kicking 37 goals in 14 matches.

“It will give (senior coach) Ryan (James) more flexibility with him (O’Brien), obviously,” he said.
“He’s a man-mountain, Josh, he’s 199cm so that’s going to help – last year with injury, Tim had two to three on him, so it’s definitely going to help us in that sense.”
Doncaster East missed the finals this season with a 5-13 record amid a horror run with injury, with the president hopeful his club’s prized recruit can help it climb the ladder.
The Lions, who also have ex-AFL men Josh Deluca and Taylin Duman on their books, have re-signed more than 45 of their current list for next season.
“He’s (Schache) just turned 27 so he’s the perfect age for local footy,” Sowersby said.
“Hopefully Josh gets us back into the finals … you look at someone like South Croydon last year, they almost got relegated and (this year) won a final.”

Apparently there was a mass shooting just before a 'homecoming' football match in Nashville Tennessee on Sat night outside Tennessee State University. I understand Jackson is at the University Of Tennessee, but I don't know if that is also called Tennessee State University - probably not. Close call, though.

F*&kin' Yanks and their love of guns.

Cooper Stephens heading to the WAFL with East Perth. Hope he is able to catch a break with injury.

WAFL 2024: East Perth win five clubs battle for former Geelong and Hawthorn midfielder Cooper Stephens​

East Perth have won a five-club WAFL battle to sign former first-round draftee Cooper Stephens, who will move Western Australia for a fresh start.
The West Australian can reveal the Royals beat out East Fremantle, Claremont, Perth and West Perth to sign the former Geelong and Hawthorn midfielder for the next two seasons.
Stephens, 23, was delisted by the Hawks this year after two seasons on their list without playing a game. He played seven games for Geelong across three years after being drafted with pick No.16 in 2019.

The signing is crucial for the Royals, who have lost star midfielders Mitch Crowden (Sturt) and Angus Schumacher (North Adelaide) to the SANFL just weeks after their grand final loss to Peel Thunder.
Michael Randall is also weighing up a potential East Perth exit, with Perth hunting the former Peel Thunder midfielder.
Stephens struggled with injuries in 2024 but still managed to play 12 games for Hawthorn’s VFL affiliate Box Hill, where he averaged 14.5 disposals.
He showed promise in his maiden season at the Cats, playing seven games, including a 19-disposal effort against Greater Western Sydney on debut.

But he did not play a game after the 2020 season and was cut by the Hawks following their semifinal loss to Port Adelaide.​

The big-bodied midfielder was part of a complicated trade in 2022 that led to Ollie Henry going to Geelong and Brownlow medallist Tom Mitchell landing at Collingwood.

Perth were hopeful of recruiting him because of his previous connection with current midfielders Charlie Constable, Sam Simpson and fellow former Cat Blake Schlensog.

The Tigers would have added him to add him to their star-studded midfield that includes three Sandover medallists in Bailey Rogers, Jye Bolton and recently crowned Callan England.

East Fremantle are in desperate need of midfielders after the retirements of Sandover medallist Blaine Boekhorst and former Gold Coast-listed endurance beast Josh Schoenfeld while West Perth are looking to add to a powerful midfield that includes Shane Nelson and Luke Meadows.

Kingborough will head into the new SFL Premier League competition without TSL premiership star Jack Tomkinson.
Tomkinson’s departure was confirmed on Thursday night with the imposing big man signing with SANFL club Central Districts.
The former Brisbane Lions academy prospect returned to Tasmania ahead of the 2022 season and has spent the past three seasons as key cog in the Tigers line-up.
In a statement, Central Districts football manager Mark Ross said they had been chasing Tomkinson’s signature for some time.
“Jack is a high quality person who is super excited at the opportunity to take his game to the next level,” Ross said.

“We have been chasing Jack to join us here at Ponderosa for the last two seasons and we are excited that he has decided it is the right time to make the move.
“Jack’s strengths come from his ability to never give up on a contest. He hunts the ball both in the air and once it hits the ground, he can take a strong mark and is a good kick for goal. Most importantly he is always competing in everything he does on the field.
“We can see Jack becoming quite the cult figure among the Centrals faithful.”
Fellow Tasmanian players Jack Callinan, Zac Buechner, Aiden Grace and Will Splann were all on Central’s list this season with Grace winning the Norm Russell Medal, the senior best and fairest award.
Playing 52 games in the yellow and black, Tomkinson’s departure will leave a major hole in the Tigers big man stocks with his ability to play both ruck and forward crucial in their set-up across the last three seasons.
After missing the 2022 grand final loss through injury, the 200cm big man returned the following season to boot 37 goals, finish 12th in the Alastair Lynch Medal count with 10 votes and be a key player in the premiership win against North Launceston.
Despite the loss of Tomkinson, the 2023 premiers have re-signed a large contingent of top-end talent for next season.

Captain Lachie Clifford, vice-captain Ben Donnelly and superstar midfielder Kieran Lovell all re-signed back in August along with fellow senior players Riley Ashlin, Joey Browuer, Will Clifford, Lachlan Gadomski and Tyler Carter.
Following another terrific season, Lovell claimed the Tigers best and fairest award with 35 votes earlier this month.
He finished one ahead of fellow midfielder Mitch Brouwer (34) and Tomkinson (30), with Clifford (25) and Ashlin (17) rounding out the top five.
Premiership coach Trent Baumeler will also return after signing an extension earlier this season.

Lachie Bramble good luck to him but I called him Hartung 2.0 last year for a reason. You wouldn’t want to go into a final relying on him as the pressure will bring out his dump kicks. As the oppo you would put a dangerous forward to him as he can’t defend.

We are not regretting this decision that's for sure. He's been decent for the Dogs but he's not at the level of the guys we have now. Think that's the point lost on Lachie a little bit. Your ok but we think we can get someone better. He can't honestly say looking at how we went this year that he would have made us better. Anyway we have moved on and Lachie hopefully has done the same.

Guessing if he was not playing college ball nobody would remember him.

If he makes the NFL there’s a good chance he will be more memorable to more people than our entire list.

There’s plenty of excellent kicks who didn’t quite make AFL level footy who have gone into the college system, made college lists, earned a 4 year tertiary degree and walked out far better for it.

As for why AFL players like to go over there on holidays, well to many of them, NFL is a “level above” and college football is the feeder for that.

They adore it and I dare say quite a few of Jackson’s ex-team mates would be a teeny bit jealous as what he’s doing with his skill set.

Yeh, I think this is where you're missing....and I'm not throwing a jab.
I've lived in the USA the last 24 years.
College football is massive in a way that isn't really easily described. For many many living here, it's bigger and certainly more meaningful than the NFL.
College is where so many Americans find eachother, having left home, very often their State, and create community and friend groups they maintain the rest of their lives, manifesting allegiances to that University's sporting teams that is every bit as feral and intense as anything you'd see from any supporter group in the World.

I've been to NBA, NFL, NHL, US Open Tennis and MLS games in various parts of this country.
My best - by far - experience was seeing the Kansas Jayhawks (Basketball) play at Allen Field House (Kansas University Basketball home venue).

It's literally guttural. The student section bounces and chants for near the entire game.
The atmosphere is another level than professional sports in the US.
My sports bucket list includes seeing USC at Notre Dame Stadium below the Golden Dome.

Tennessee University, as is most of the South in America, is rabid about football and feel more kinship because before NIL deals, the kids really did only play for the Jersey and the fanbase. The money in pro sports as well as casual loyalty pro athletes display before happily moving on to their next employer only bolds this more sharply.

Anyone who visits the US and wants a pure sporting experience should try and attend College Football and Basketball games.
You'll never forget it.
