Just created the template for you its over at Template:Northern Territory roster, i have it linking up to an uncreated page by the name of Northern Territory Buffalo's. When you go to edit the template it will look quite abit different in the coding at to the one you sent me, you have to edit it direct from the template page as there is no direct link from the template as it appears on pages (cant remember how to do that after a long day haha). Just drop me a line if you need any other help with the page, the Template:ABL infobox might need some modifications to meet what you are doing. --Dan027 (talk) 11:36, 17 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

2009 World Cup: Australia completed their run in the World Cup with their best ever finish in the tournament: 5th. Despite this result, they failed to improve their IBAF World Ranking, staying in 11th position behind Puerto Rico
From the Editor
I just want to take this opportunity to wish everyone a (belated) Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, that the holiday season so far has been good for you, and that what remains will be just as good, if not better.
I'd also like to thank everyone who has been involved with the task force over the last year. I'd ask everyone to keep up the good work, and to invite anyone they can think of to join us: there's always room for more here.

The regular season for the ABL has come to a close, and the Sydney Blue Sox have finished in first spot earning two guaranteed home finals series. They'll face the Perth Heat in the major semi, where the winner will go straight to the championship series and the loser will have a second chance.

Commiserations to the Brisbane Bandits and the Canberra Cavalry, both on missing out on the finals, and on not getting to play the makeup games from round 9, cancelled because of the Queensland floods.

On 11 May 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Gunner (dog), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that during the bombing of Darwin in World War II, Gunner's hearing was so acute that he detected approaching Japanese aircraft before they showed up on radar?

As you'll see I manged to track down the Mention. There seems to be a bit of confusion over his rank. The Gazette entry lists him as warrant officer (not a commissioned rank), CWGC has him as pilot officer (lowest commissioned rank), and teh Cenotaph entry seems to follow this. You, presumably base on the 156 Squadron site have him as Flying Officer. Some mention of this probably ought to be made. David Underdown (talk) 07:07, 16 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
"We did what you have to do to win. We got three very good starts, we played some outstanding defence and the bats came alive and we peaked at the right time."
New ABL-themed userboxes are now available to go on your user page. Each of the six teams have a standard one ready to go, while the Blue Sox have an additional one using the crowd chant as heard on Triple H FM. If fans of the other teams want a similarly adjusted userbox, let me know and I'll have it up as soon as I can.
