History

The Northern Territory Thunder were formed in 2008 and were invited to join the West Australian Football League but instead opted to join the QAFL. At the conclusion of the 2011 QAFL season the Thunder, along with nine other Queensland based teams, were invited to join the newly formed North East Australian Football League.[1] The Thunder finished the regular season with the best record in the Northern Conference and in doing so claimed their first ever minor premiership. The Thunder went on to prove their superiority by claiming the first ever Northern Conference NEAFL premiership by defeating the Morningside Panthers. A week later the Thunder defeated the newly crown Eastern Conference NEAFL premiers, Ainslie Tri-Colours, to claim the first ever NEAFL premiership at Traeger Park. [2]
