Correct. Great participation that I got to see from the coal face of it. I played for Ivanhoes for half a season after not playing any sort of footy for a decade + prior. Great and unforgettable experience even though I was very mature aged in comparison to my early 20’s year old team mates.
Who are Saints?
It’s his favoured sport
It's not even that though, the standard is far far higher.
Bro, when did you play Suburbs have been the Cockatoos for like 30 years?
17 or so years ago. Everyone (locals) just called them Saints tbh.
Very true. An afl fanboy!
Never heard of the Saints in the CDRL. Cairns Saints are in the local afLOL.
I believe it had something to do with the amount of churches in and around Gordonvale. At the time there was around 7. Like I said, it’s the nickname locals (at the very least all the locals I met in the footy community) gave to Southern Suburbs during my time there.
Never ever heard that, ever. Must have been a very niche thing with your team. And Gordonvale certainly isn't know for its Churches.
Possibly mate, I could be completely off as it’s just recollection. I lived in the northern suburbs the entire time I was there (which was a couple of years). Smithfield at first then Trinity Beach. I didn’t venture to the southern suburbs much unless I needed to.
