Lae will play by the Rules
FOUR centres have confirmed their
participation at the coming PNG/AFL championships that will be
held over the long Independence weekend in Lae.
AFL/PNG rules council vice-president Thomas Gori confirmed the
venue during the presentation of trophies after the Lae/AFL
grand final on Sunday and said five centres will participate in
the championships to select PNG Mosquitoes for the International
Cup in Melbourne in August next year.
Four centres - Mt Hagen, Kimbe NCD and host Lae - will send in
teams to take part in the national championships over long the
long Independence weekend to select a strong side to represent
PNG at the International Cup to be held at Melbournce in
Australia next August, Gori said.
ìLae have selected a strong 63-man squad to undergo training to
prepare for the championships that will be held at Eriku Oval to
meet other centre to vie for placings in the PNG Mosquitoes
squad,î he said.
PNG had taken part in the International Cup in the past two
tournaments and finished in the top and losing to New Zealand in
the grand final in 2005 and we hope to take out the
International Trophy in 2008.
Gori urged all the selected players to pay their respective levy
fees of K50 before close of business on Friday Sept 7 and
Bulldogs are also asked to pay their fees to Patrick Polosi and
failure to comply will result in being dropped from the squad.
