The Tassie Terror - AFL Footy Forum

Greetings and Salutations,

I'm a 25yo Hawks supporter from Launceston, the Home of Aurora (and second home of the Hawks!) I live about 5 minutes walk from Aurora, so I'm loving the Tassie Governments deal with the hawks.

For those of you unfamiliar with the state, Launceston is not the capital of the state, however Aurora Stadium is THE premier footy ground in the state by a long, long way.

I look forward to some footy conversations, and a bit of banter along the way!

Welcome BL.
You must be loving the games you get at Aurora. I live on the Gold Coast and even though I don't follow the Roos it's great to see some AFL games.
Wish the Bombers would get a game up here though!

My missus says the same thing about the biombers down here...

Welcome Buddy. As a fellow Taswegian but from the south of the state I have to pull you up on Aurora as we all know bellerive is the best sporting facility in the state and has a higher ground capacity to boot. Can't wait for AFL and AFLTas to realise this and start playing games down here so I can go and see them.
