If Stage (Init) throws error - actionscript-3

Question

This line throws a Stack Error (FlashDevelop) not compile error. I have other errors but I would thought the others might be flowing from this.
Can anyone get a sense of why its having trouble with this basic part of code?
Which is 1009 when displayed in external error viewer.
lines
if (stage) {init();}
throw this error.
It won't attach the second sprite without error- though it does seem to set on stage- traces don't give any results even they did before (with 4.4.2) however I just updated to 4.4.3.

Doesn't matter how I write that part whether init or init()

Look for yourself no uninitialized variables- everything is defined before its used.
It totally fails to create textfields so that's why stage.focus fails.

For some reason, if I reason it at least creates the instance and textfields though its still unresponsive to Enter key presses.
if I comment out the reference to Board() in Main()
