    I remember this match one year was abandoned as Alice Springs had that huge downpour which also affected a NAB challenge match.

    I hear Buddy is pretty stoked, and can't wait to glean some lessons from Jones.

    Gold, thats what i meant to say

    I think Jones will come good, history shows key forwards dont find their feet until around the 100 game mark. Hawkins is the prime example of this. I used to think the bloke was a spud, wasnt until late 2011 that he really showed anything.

    Managing supporter expectations is almost a role in and of itself.

    Re: Indigenous All-Stars Squad

    Forward Liam Jones and defender Brett Goodes will line up with some of the best indigenous talent in the AFL when they represent the Indigenous All Stars in tomorrow’s showcase match against Richmond in Alice Springs.

    Playing alongside the likes of All Stars captain Nathan Lovett-Murray (Essendon) and Premiership players Lewis Jetta (Sydney) and Sharrod Wellingham (West Coast Eagles), Goodes will also play under the instruction of his brother, Brownlow Medallist Adam Goodes - who will be acting as Assistant Coach.

    The hitout is a highlight of the AFL Players’ Association Indigenous Camp which also includes community visits and a leadership program, among a range of other activities set to engage fans in the Northern Territory.

    The Indigenous All Stars will take on Richmond on Friday 8 February 2013 at 8:30 AEDT time, with a live video stream available at afl.com.au.

    GOLD COAST midfielder Harley Bennell and Western Bulldogs forward Liam Jones led the Indigenous All Stars to a commanding 50-point win over Richmond in Friday night's pre-season showpiece in Alice Springs.

    If you kicked five goals and Tom Boyd kicked five goals, Tom Boyd kicked more goals than you.
