Joseph Groenewegen with 27 hit outs and Jake Cox, who had 15 touches and four scoring assists, were also fine players for Tassie.

Woukld have to be "Captain" Groenewegen's son? I know Robert was down in Tassie coaching for a long time, as a mate of mine was coached by him some decade or more ago....
If the lad is pretty good, it's a pity Robert didn't play 100 games for us.

Funny that name should come up. I am going to chat with 'Wagon' tomorrow as part of the WOOF series of interviews I have been conducting.

He works at Aurora Stadium in Launceston.

I'm considering the Spirit of Tasmania. Couldn't find any good (read: cheap) flights from Adelaide, and I don't really want to have to hire a car and drive from Hobart.

Will be a cracker of a game I think.

Yep i am off to Canberra as well. I drove up last year and didnt mind it except for the belting we got. Stayed with a mate who lives just up the road from the ground. Hit the pubs hard in the little mall in Kingston.
