sPORTSCOvER VAFA MAJOR SPONSOR

It was as "~augh < ~! ~c'_is bad come off the broad shoulders oa'- r ~ . Dunne after a fine win ov+ ' Ol rrians last weekend . The club had been s like a rock in a river, singing the song only once in nine weeks . You couldn't blame the newies if the,, had forgotten the words . But Dunne, the full-back in Richmond's 1980 premiership, remains unflustered about the club's free-fall . Not only has the club had a shocking run with ailments, it has also tinkered with its approach to selection and the use of greener players . "The boys plat째ed well . . . but look we've had a hell of a lot of injuries," Dunne said . "It's been absolutely amazing: anyone who's played has always ended up getting hurt , "We're just starting to get a few guys back and getting reasonable sides together . There's a few more to come and we think we'll be more than competitive over the next two weeks . " Still, the fact that St Kevs is flirting with relegation won't cost Dunne any sleep . The thing is, the club knew before the year that this was a season of setting things up for the future and make things right between the Old Boys and the school . "We've struggled for wins and we've been unlucky in a couple, but the long-term future of the club is looking pretty rosy," Dunne said . "We lost a couple of experienced players who went to play for some money and we're very much trying to create a closer liaison with the school and the under19s, make it a career path, if you like, for football . "That's not ignoring people from outside the school : we'll certainly be pursuing quality players . "But it was an effort to put the club on that agenda because it probably moved away from that for a while, playing older players and not having much younger blood coming through . " IT'S I2ORIBQ One of the newcomers who would have been scratching his head during the song was none other than John Rombotis, a member of Fitzroy's last team . Rombotis slipped out of AFL because of injuries a couple of years ago, having clocked up time at Fitzroy, Port Adelaide and Richmond . We've missed Rombo for his fearless approach : he's the type of player who would gladly take a kick on the nose if it meant a successful smother . And despite the fact he joined the Lions the same year as Doug Hawkins, he's only 26 and should have years

THE

of football left in him . The word is that he will be available only when work allows but the club has bee n chuffed with his contributions thus far . CAPTAIN BLOO D Six-time premiership ruckman Michael Blood been awarded life membership of the Old Xaveria . nhisoutadgervchlub Blood, the youngest man to receive the honour, lends a hand to his old mates by showing the yo blokes how to ruck . Dominant as late as last year, he closed his caree 212 games with the club . He picked up some plaudits along the way : four, best and fairests . two best-afields in a Grand Final the JN Woodrow for the A Section best and faire : 1997 . IS IT TRUE? Former Footscray defender Mark Kellett was in news last month and mentioned St Kevs c ( Emmett Dunne in his funniest memories from Wh Oval . "Many, including a dead, half-gutted rabbit in Em Dunne's locker and Simon Beasley having Deno applied to his jockstrap," Kellett said . When it was put to Dunne, he didn't shirk the tol "Yeah it was all fun and games, all shenanigans said. "I enjoyed my time in footy enormously - had a I fun and games, innocent fun, back in those gam e

1,1iey make a long winter a bit more fun and lively and 't zp part of footy : you've got to enjoy it ." i, ; hope the players at St Kevs don't get any ideas. TODAY old Scotch is shaping as a premiership threat after ~,),,rking off Old Xaverians, with Luke Hawkins firing ,iu1 Lachie Thompson bagging five on debut . The game jc,r third spot against Old Ilaileybury is likely to be the ,,,,Itch of the round . nla rceliin is up against it against Old Xavs with mother two players, Brett Dobson and Jarrod Frazer, carted to the Epworth last weekend . St Bernards meets Old Ivanhoe in a top v bottom match, Old Melburnians and Uni Blues play in Sunday's crunch feature game at Sportscover Arena and Old Trinity face St Kevins as the former chase a fiual's spot and the latter tries to avoid the drop . 1,RESS CORRESPONDENTS Psner Fjeldstad - fjeldstadjCixnet .eom .au

St i:evin's - congratulate popular team-mate Adrian Callery on his 100th Game last Saturday, in the ,,,,aior team vs Old Melburnians . `Bazza' has been a top defender and dogged on-bailer in a sterling career with SKOB . He won the Club's Best and Fairest Award in 2001, a Grand Final year. Since then Bazza has spent time at Springvale in the VFL, but gets a hearty welcome back at SKOB when the opportunity arises! Baz made the most of his 100th game, being in SKOB's best at the St Kevin's College Oval! Well done, Bazza! Old Haileyburians' - congratulate Andrew Waxman on playing his 50th game for the Bloods last week against Uni Blues . Wacka began his career with the Under 19's in 1999 and was vice captain in 2000 . Missing part of 2001 and all of 2000 due to injury delaved this milestone, but continued to assist the club, acting in varied roles (runner, water carrier etc) during this time . Now back and firing, Andrew joins brother Chris in another OHAFC pair to achieve this milestone . Well done Andrew . Old Ivanhoe - congratulate Tull y Young on reaching 150 games this week against St Bernards . Tully has b, rn and still is one of the most dependable defenders this club has ever produced, and a major reason why (ite club has climbed up from section D to A . A member of the 94195 premiership sides in section D & C, and also the section B premiership side of 2001,Tully has been given many a giant-killing mission on star forwards and has rarely not prevailed . Recently picked in the side of the nineties we all hope to see Tully make 200 games and achieve a well deseved life membership .

Thank you on behalf of Pam and myself to all the people within VAFA Ranks especially B Section for their entails, faxes, phone calls and messages of support for both of us during the tough last fortnight . It is most appreciated and just shows what a wonderful community we have within the VAFA . Many thanks to Brett for stepping into the breech and writing this column for the past fortnight, most incisive it has been too mate. And what a fortnight it has been, The Bombers quietly slip two games clear on top, De La convincingly slip into the 4, Friars and Tonners in a slight rut . and no result anywhere else would surprise anymore such is the evenness of this section . REVIEW During 4 intense quarters of football action from both sides a draw was the l r-wh between St Be ... MeaY€a€e e-Tigers E d ! ers. Players from both sides were incredi in r attack on the ball in an attempt to gain the up-°r hand . Each team had the lead while kicking with Inc wind, leading to a last quarter shoot out with the Rovers just 3 goals to the fore. The Tigers as is their norm put on a burst to bridge the gap and even the score with 2 minutes to go, then hit the front . Rovers had two chances from here one missing and one hitting the post to tie the scores as siren sounded . De La Salle played a terrific first quarter into the wind at the windswept South Road Oval, and at quarter time held sway by 4 points . However they did not capitalize on it during the second and were worried at the half with just a 7 point advantage. The injury riddled Old i played a great third to be in front by 6 at orange time but not confident kicking into the wind . The quarter started as an arm wrestle until Lockie Walker marking superbly kicked his 5th 6th and 7th in 10 minutes of inspired football to get De La over the line impressively for tl- `- fourth win in a row and a season back on track . Waverley was not a happy hunting ground for the Friars as Eii~ Ei got off to a flyer and led by 6 goals at the first change . The Friars spent the rest of the day trying to chip ~ y at the lead without much luck despite winning the last three quarters, as the desperate Mazenod fought stirringly to retain their hard earned lead and record an important morale boosting victory by some 20 points . In a gin ° that as always going to be toluill for them Old - _ _ tackled top side Old : 1 'th a great de<i .,, ., .h)wer . Thwent t, :o tr.c till the Gramm- ~sl! rim, ana ;i,st i emed an

up is looming OEG pu a couple of irons from the fire and kick d a couple of late goals to come away with the 4 points . . Two wins on the trot for I Boys perhaps I got them going back in the right direction and tun their season around, written somewhere in a prev that winning form is good form . Wonder who .!!! Controlled the play for the first three quari ath did the NOBS' but they were a bit disappointed with last allowing the High to kick 5 .8 but the hard w was already done and they were happy to take th noi~t.ci .

;overs tackle Old Brighton at Boss Res( in t c be termed a traditional grudge match, gd usually attracts a crowd in excess of thor tnd and the stakes and expectations are It Rovers from all accounts the unlucky one from draw last week welcome the injury riddled Old Brigl ; hoping to get back a few players and a bit of form . if Rovers can string together 4 quarters they are a chance and spurred on by their parochial home cri and what lies ahead of them I'm going to tip the Gr and Gold in a bit of an upset .

An imposing task uiy side let alone an out of form one with injuries t o p)a"~ers . Have said all year the Whitefrlars will no t

Perhaps and yes I am saying this a ,11,`, r game for OEG as they may mentally tune off ~ they are two games clear on top, while the High ,!iould be totally switched on as in pure and simple t,tls they just have to win . "Don't Know" will be fully ,,.re of this and will be aware of the dangers of iloW(rlg complacency to set in . Tempted to go for ,rother upset but you just can't go past the top side ,ho have snuck up on all of us. Final game of the Round is also vital to both sides as , hey sit in the middle of the ladder and are not out of i he woods, a wtn sees them with still a hope of a final's i,erth while a loss puts them in the realms of a drop -uch is the closeness of the competition. NOBS' are in A form coming off two wins, while the Tigers are i n nu mans land coming from a 70 point thumping and a ilerhaps lucky draw . With due deference to my friends atTigerland I have to stick with North Old Boys to win .It Gillon .

North Old Boys - congratulate John Sutherland on r hing 50 games for the elub . Injuries, including 4:uee reconstructions, a stint in the VFL and oversea s ntmitments haven't stopped "Sutho" from remaining loyal and dedicated NOB and all at the club would tk, to pay tribute to the player our club president says i> . pound for pound the best mark he has seen, on m,il;ing this first of hopefully many milestones . Old Paradians' - congratulate Brent Richardson who played his 100th game last Saturday . Brent joined in 1997 and played his early games in the Purples (2nd U 1+ Team) and graduated the Ressies to become a lure in the Seniors . Thanks "Richo" for your good work around the Club, just make sure we make a lot money out of the Footy Tipping .

A Weighty Matte r An amusing sp , ach after a match focused on the ?- ._ air' svt:__â&#x20AC;&#x17E; of a key player - and the need for ~ ~~ ~~u ;tv steward to insert another vertical st --into his jumper to accommodate his grov :! .ig girt?r . The player in question had just put in one of his worst games on record and the coach attributed his performance to being "too fat to play on the ball" .

How does weight and, more importantly, excessive body fat affect performance ? Test Run up a st u can . Recover fully, str o .r waist and run up t s ; )ur times .

If you've been successful, it ensure the player is supported b} rofessional that can educate es related to weight loss . Body weight, or cisely, body fat, has an adverse effect in <,?y sport where there is a significant amoui : : of running or jumping . Reducing body fat will reduce the amount of energy required to complete a given exercise bout . It will also improve a player's ability to dissipate heat from the exercising body . This becomes vitally important in sports such as football where a game runs for over two hours . It's also important, however . that you are not too lean . Body fat has a number of integral roles to play in the normal functioning of the human body, so a body fat percentage of lower than seven per cent is not recommended . Positive effects of body fat include :

I) cushioning bones and organs from severe impacts, it) increasing momentum (as long as the same speed and power can be generated with the extra weight), iii) increasing buoyancy for aquaticbased exercise session s S o what is your ideal weight as a footballer?

i' id ell to tAHSOBF C and head to South Africa for a one year AFL appointment as Head Coach of Australian Football . Employed by Footy Sc a" and working at ti i West Acacier of Sport (Potchetstroom, population 200,000) where Australian Football is now an official sport, I'll train the locals in playing, umpiring and coaching footy, and develop Australian Football generally. On one memorable night last year, the South African national team, in Melbourne for the Australian Football International Cup, joined MHSOBFC at Thursday training and put on a fascinating show of African singing and dancing, after training and dining with the MHSOBFC players . 'ter that night, and after having joined a team in Tokyo in 2000 whilst living in Japan, I discovered a genuine interest in the game from nonAustralians, and realised the fantastic potential for the game's growth outside Australia .

Steve F'arrison . MHSOBFC is proud to support his South African venture .

MHSOBFC looks forward to welcoming a young South African next year as part of a scholarship program whereby he can learn all aspects of football in a club environment. Footy South Africa welcomes much needed support from all within the VAFA community. Contributions including donations of footy equipment, sponsorship for events and projects, or contacts in South Africa etc, can go a very long way in South Africa! Please feel free to contact me by email on talk2steveharrison"io hotmail.co m I feel this is a wonderful opportunity for my own personal development and for furthering Australian football in general . I will keep you all posted with news from South Africa in 2004 .

,rAFA umpires Corin Rowe and isllatthew gead, both now with the AFL, will flip the coin with the two skippers . Hopefully this Gveekend all supporters, players and officials can make a conscious effort to show that they can suppress their inclination to abuse the umpire and allow all games to operate in perfect harmony . Bow many people can wear something orange to the games this weekend? Our photographer will be visiting a few venues and we will next week publish some photos of people in orange who we will provide with a prize - and no, the prize won't be an orange,

prominently displayed a sign prohibiting the consumption of alcohol during games .

Just for interest did you know that these top flight AFL players originally played with SA Amateur clubs . Scott Camporeale (Flinders Park) . Martin Pike (Ingle Farm), Alan Didak (Pooraka), Luke Darcy (Rostrevor College), Gavin Wanganeen (Salisbury North), Tom Harley (Walkerville), Ben Hart (Walkerville), Glenn and Scott Freeborn (Flinders Park) . There are many more, but it is good to know that Amateur football Australia wide continues to be the breeding ground of first class footballers .

W hy orange? Orange is the international color of harmony .

Richard Evans, the VAFA President, expressed at the meeting of secretaries last Monday night, the concern of himself and the Executive Committee at the regular occurrences of drinking at grounds and the approved luncheons going longer than the 1 .50 finishing time . Excuses as - "We thought it was OK to drink as long as we were in a car" ; "We thought we could keep goin g

after a luncheon as long as we stayed inside until half time" and "We thought light beer was OK" - are becoming too common and clubs must make a more determined stand and insist that everyone who visits a club knows that unless approval is gained from the VAFA for a luncheon (12 to 1 .50), alcohol is banned until the final siren of the last game every match day . It is a rule of the VAFA that each club must have

No Alcohol - signs like this must be visible at all VAFA venues

Grass roots football - champs of tomorrow! Tim Fleming (circled) was picked up by Richmond after a stint with Carlton . Before that Tim played for the Old Xaverians . (pic courtesy of AFL Record ) ®

Congratulations to the AFCA/VAFA (Coaches' Association) . FTLOTG's Phil Stevens and Chairman Bruce McTaggart were guests at the Coaches' meeting last Tuesday morning . The CA makes an enormous contribution to the knowledge and development of our coaches and also provides valuable information to the Executive and Administration on how the game is operating and how it could possibly be operating even better.

The fundamental cussedness of Dl footy came to fore last week with Blacks and Bears having their winning ways abruptly halted, simultaneously levelling up the fight to remain or get into the four at one end of the ladder, and avoiding relegation at the other ! ROUND 12 SUMMARY The Bullants and the Bushrangers played out a dour struggle, but once the visitors adjusted to the Ted Ajani being a kick longer than most Dl grounds they pulled away for a top win . Evan Kruse marked everything in sight OtB for Yarra, Corey Heffernan was strong in the pivot, Chris Beal did well in defence, while Andy Stone was a productive forward . The reliable trio of Burridge, Chivers, & Daskalou strove mightily for Bulleen Temp . Ashers overcame the Bloods in a low scoring grind of a game where the ball spent a great deal of the playing time out of bounds on the lee side of the Frearson . Brett Hardman in the middle and Greg Evans at CHB had great matches for the visitors . Monash were happy to see Grant Chessari in fine form at CHB, Ryan Turton roving well, and Aaron Williams doing well in the Ruck again after recovering from a bad corky. Hoes finally lost the initiative to the Jackas when the visitors rattled on 3 goals in 90 seconds late in Q3 to take a 13 point lead, which the home side couldn't wind back . Hoes on-ballers Shane Sampson, Shane McGowan, & Danny Ryan stood out for the Hoes in a top team effort against very talented opponents . AJAX's hunter-gatherers again did the damage, with Nick Gold, Jason Ritterman, Gary Blieden, and Jona Segal starring . The Panthers re-invented themselves against the Bears after appearing gone at 3/4 time when trailing and kicking into the breeze in Q4 . An 8 goals to 3 94 brought a telling victory to the home side against very accomplished opposition . The Panthers on-ball trio of Anthony Palmer, Danny Carroll, and Ruckman Andrew Carter were in stellar form, with Bournon & Acreman both damaging up forward . Nigel Sannholm, Shaun Lorenzini, Anthony Demetriou, and Tom Wise were standouts in an even Bears unit.

Chaddie's close quarters reconnaissance and skirmishing tactics were too much for the previously in form Blacks, which never recovered after losing its way in Q2 . SOC did a brilliant

demolition job, with Adam Healy, Simon Sutherland and Mark Canavan very effective in an d round the packs, and Anthony 'Coup de' Grace deadly form round goal . Pat Barry w, magnificent in defence for Blacks, Dom Davis w< an effective hardball getter, and Viad Romijn toil( valiantly in the Ruck .

TODATS GAME S

YVOB host the Ashers in a round full of di consequences for every loser, and, as I write, tl weather is forecast to be wet and windy . TI Domeney isn't a preferred venue in either of tho : conditions, especially for two sides who: particular talents are speed and ball skill Defences will be in the ascendency today, and it visitors have the best in the section, so I'll go for Monash win by 2 goals .

Aquinas at home against the Hoes will be heroes' affair with both these proud outfits strivir their utmost to avoid the dreaded "R" fate . TI Hoes won the R4 clash by 15 points, this tin round I think the margin will be less, but Bloo( will triumph on their own turf. Jackas & Panthers clash in today's big one Sandringham with the conditions possibly suitit the visitors more than the home team, but tl margin won't be anything like the 55 points th Old Mentone won by at Keysborough .

,,•,_ it either right on or right off this year, but this ,rne will be a close one with the visitors to win by a h1( % . gannynle take on Salesian and will be anxious to rec,°rse their 35 points loss in R4 .

Blacl.s do battle with the Bullants in a game v; here the desperation of both sides will be at a lk though for differing reasons . Whilst there

his been the odd glitch like last week, Paul u'Shannassy has developed his side into a genuine gag contender this season, and that should give them a 3 goals victory over the injury ridden Bulleen Temp, which is playing on sheer G& D at the moment .

Va ll ey C : - congratulates David 'Spr' .r _;sy' smith on playing his 50th game against Monash wtl . . 'Spriggsy' started as a basketballer but switched to football after being banned for life from goal tending. His ability to hang around the goal square has yielded many goals and he was a key 1:orWard/centre in the 2002 Premiership win . Sprdggsy's pre-seasons are curtailed by golf, but from . April on he is a regular on the track . All Bushrangers wish you well today. Aquinas - congratulate Glen Whitehead for reaching the 150 game mark . Whits started with the club in 1991, quickly becoming a key member of the midfield . He is a B&F winner and one of only two members of the 1996 premiership club still playing . Glen keeps fit by processing lost dog reports for the Victorian Police. Whits we salute VOUi"

Salesian - today recognises the achievement of 200 Games by Michael Byrne . Mick has been with the Club since 1991, and has been a prolific goal ! ;i,_! ;er since . Highlights of his career include the 96 1 nior Premiership, kicking the entire goal tally o f in Salesian's first ever final appearance, and (aching the Reserves . Mick has managed to keep he hammy's together long enough to earn Life

bership, and all at Salesian congratulate him .

WHAT Bl: ; Bouncing be k off the bent h with finals fas t approaching, alas s a gr ne of year! Major result w- s having a narrow victory over Wi ssic 8 point game. Not over for final's contention ju but Willy can't afford too much slippage from here . f y also continued on with their sound form . . ter a slow start to the season, they have been about as consistent as anyone and will be dangerous around final's time . They are not without a sniff for the double chance but also can't afford a slip. Match of the year no doubt this week as Fitzroy host Peninsula . The Pirates have had no lull during the year, a great testament to a much focused club . The Reds have had only a few down periods and he game shapes as a ripper. Close but Fitzroy to break - ,e Pirates streak . West Brunswick should defeat although a hot contest as usual can be e :cpected . Old Geelong and Willy meet with the loser to be evicted from the final's race . I am still a bit of a Wi lly fan and expect them to have a confidence boosting win . Old Carey will be hoping a Fitzroy loss and a win for themselves will see the double chance loom as a distinct possibility . O eigh have been competitive without being able to get to many points on the board . Hard to see it being this week against in form OC's. Finally, La Trobe meets Bâ&#x201A;Źatieigh . Hard to get a line through Bentleigh, there best has been very good whilst injuries have meant them dropping games they probably shouldn't have . Latrobe for mine . WHAT ANDREW SAYS West Brunswick coach Julian Siebrand - aware of his side's narrow escape in Round 4 - was wary of the embattled Hawks . "We're expecting them to have a fair crack again," he said. Hawthorn coach Peter Tyson was frustrated with his side's poor luck with injuries . The Hawks have only seven of their losing 2002 OF side available this week . The return of defender Kent Brockman this week is offset by the loss of forward Dan Lauletta and ruckman the "Big Fish" . Old Carey coach Glenn Taylor said his side would not be taking Oakleigh lightly . "We're not going in thinking it's going to be one way," he said . "They've got a good band of young kids . " "On any given day they can turn it on . I've got no doubt about that . " After leading at every break, O eigh will be shattered at their loss to La Trobe and will need to regroup before they meet the in form OC . Skipper Trevor Bromley has received plaudits from rival coaches, some of who m

would love to have him on their list . With eleven senior i players missing from Iasi season, La Trobe coach Tony Crisafulli said his club was now in rebuilding phase, "We have a pretty young side at the moment and w the injuries, it has taken a toll," he said . Bentleigh will need to win every match from now order to make the finals . With injuries sidelini players of the ilk of Clark, Grace, Sharp, Dave Martin prolonged periods this year, it is remarkable t Demons have remained in the hunt for so long. Both Old Geelong and Williamstown also need to v every game to make the finals . "We can't afford to lose another one," OG coach Mich ; Lockman said . "We don't want to rely on other resu this far out. " While the mood at Williamstown was morose after th loss to WB, coach Dene Macleod said his players win not give up . "All you can do is win as many games as possible ai see what happens," he said . Macleod identified Hugh McCarthy as a player needed a match-up for. "He's small and so difficult to tackle," he said . Peninsula face their biggest test of the season wh they travel to Brunswick Street to tackle Fitzroy . Coach Julian Sill dismissed speculation his side w, susceptible on bigger grounds . "The larger ground doesn't worry us," he said . "I'll I

happy to play on a big ground . " However, Sill said that Fitzroys runners posed a huge dueat . p,'r'll be mindful of what happened last time in terms of how they tried to get their players forward of the fnoty," he said . "Our guys have to be accountable to make sure they are a step ahead ." Fitzroy coach Graham Burgen said he would need to ,top Aaron Teelow's run off half-back and shut down Steve Parsons in the Pirates' engine room . The Reds should regain wingman Jason Bennie but will be without gun forward Joe Tornese (ankle) for at least the next fortnight . Wlllle Burgen said he believed his side could win, he was very mindful of recent history . Â°ÂŤ'e believe we can certainly beat them, but they are twelve and zip and two years ago we were in the same position and it (losing) didn't happen .

Bentleigh - congratulates Ben Padgham on 100 games . Ben has progressed from our Under 19's and is one of a group of players that is progressing through from the juniors and helping make our club stronger . Congratulations and well done ! Old Carey - congratulates Peter Drake on his 150th game today. While playing many of his games in the reserves, Peter has also been a most valued senior player on many occasions. A member of the 1997 reserves premiership team, Peter is a consistent possession winner and a reliable disposer of the ball . He rarely misses social events and has become a much loved and respected member of the Club . It has taken Peter quite a while to achieve this most significant milestone, a fact not helped by an indiscretion in last year's semi final! Congratulations on a fantastic career to date Drakey! All at Old Carey salute you and are delighted to see you join the Life Membership Club . Hawthorn - congratulate Rick Ogge and Luke Collins on achieving 50 games. Popular personalities around the club, all wish them well for the future .

Football Umpiring - The Non-Contact Team Sport by Dianne Whiteley WHISTLE IN HARMONY DAY Today is the day where all the field and boundary umpires wear their 'orange' socks and i1,e goalies wear the orange 'whistle' sticker on their shirts . (Orange is the colour for harmony) . The field umpires are to shake the coaches' and captains' hands before the match and the captains' hands again after the match . The coin will be tossed on the eluding the after ground 5 minutes prior to the match commencing . Here's hoping that the day will be a good one for a match . THANKS The VAFAUA wish to THANK Elise Van Grondelle for all her hard work that she has been doing for the umpires off the track, this year. Elise, alongside Ted and Michael Troup attend to our umpires 'sore' points!! They either massage or do what they know best (physic) to help keep our guys and gals on the training track . Elise is sponsored by Melbourne Sports Books (Santo Caruso) and Olympic Fitness (Jason McNiece) . Therefore, if any umpire has an injury or is 'sore' after thei r 1 umpire system match, come down to training on a Tu esday or Thursday night and see Elise . MILESTONE S

Congratulations to Garry 'Elvis' Clancy for finally reaching his 500th game with the VAFAUA . He will be umpiring at St . Leos with Kevin Segota who is now umpiring his 502nd game. He began umpiring in the early 80's and says he has enjoyed his career as a goalie at the VAFA. His best game was the 1988 and 1990 'B' Section grand finals with his mate Ken Pitcher . He has also done the E!F 1984 Grand Final as well as many others . Garry welcomes all umpires, families and friends to celebrate this fantastic achievement at Michangelo's Pizza & Pasta Restaurant, 279-281 Bunvood Highway, Bunvood from 7pm .

'lso, Dianne Whiteley ( No . 35 Yellow) is celebrating her 100th VAFA game at St . Leo' s v :ith Garry Clancy. Di began umpiring in 198 5 with Northern Tassie Football Umpires Association as a boundary umpire and in 1992 took up field umpiring . Spent 12 years with the NTFUA . Some achievements - 10 Year Service Certificate, committee member for many years, lots of grand finals including juniors, rep games between associations in Tasmania (including 1 U19 game where all the umpires F/B/G were female) and umpired over 400 games . Umpired Division 2 games with EDL in 1998 and from 1999, th e VAFAUA APOLOGY Peter Armstrong, coach from Box Hill North gave Jason Lane an excellent report regarding the game again s estbourne not Michael Roche as last weeks UC stated . Sorry Jason . WHAT'S YOUR DECISION? No winner from last week . The answer - If the ball hits the goalie while he is behind the line, it is a goal . However, if goalie is in the goal square, it is play on . Also, if the ball hits the goal umpire's flags and they are behind the goal line, it is a goal . This week's question - How many players are allowed to take the field and where do they line up for a'team' count? Email your answer to diannewhiteley(gbigpond .eom . TRIM NIGHT Got your thinking cap on? Lets see if you can answer the following questions : 1 . Name the past VAFAUA President; 2 . Who will be celebrating 15 years and 20 years service to the VAFA in 2004 (hint - they work in the admin . dept .) ; 3. Name he song that is played on 88 .3FM as the introduction to Benny and Tommy's VAFA Sunday show . Got them all right?

Wow, I am in form with the tipping! Another five out of five from the wee` .end that included picking the upset Warrior win over St .Marys and four 100+ point results . After last week's censorship of my review section for writing too much (sorry Brettl) , I will have to keep it brief, so apologies to my regular readers if I don't cover everything that I would like . Review North Brunswick returned to the winner's list in comprehensive style against a determined I It . Even the 100th games of Trinchi and Orwin, who incidentally starred for the Cobras, could not inspire their teammates as the likes of Pizzari and Hamilton, who kicked nine, ran amok for North as they ran out 124 point winners . The Warriors proved to themselves and the rest of D4 that they are a force to be reckoned with as they accounted for the Saints at home . Wcstbourne got a six-goal jump on the Saints thanks to some great play from "jucka" and "Dippy" . The Saints came back in the third quarter with a flurry of goals thanks to the hard work from Harrison, however, the Warriors answered the challenge in a physical final half to run out 32-point winners. Albert Park appears to be getting better with every game, this time accounting for the disappointing Eltham . The Falcons moved up to second spot kicking six goals into the wind in the first quarter with Adrian Harper dominant in the ruck . Eltham was a shadow of the side that got within 1 point of the Falcons in round one, with only Al Mann providing any resistance as the Turtles went down by a massive 150 points . Mt .Lilydale destroyed another team at "Goat Park", this time it was Box Hill North's turn . Even with Dave Martini brilliant in the ruck for North, they had no answers to the eight goal opening first quarter lead . With "Leaping" Leigh Kellett on fire, and McKenzie and Bird running through the centre it was just a matter of how far for the Dales as they assured themselves a top spot with a 124-point victory. The Vultures started well against the gale at the Zoo scoring four opening term goals but then blew the Power away in the second quarter with Rose, Tate and Mottram on fire . The Power's Baxter, who played both in the Reserves and Seniors stood out, however, 'his side was never in the hunt as they went down by 109 points. =3ehmor~= Cerrt-Â°? had the bye .

:â&#x201A;Ź i host the inform Warriors in what promises to be a tight physical encounter . The Cobra's will be reeling from last week's flogging, having shown good form in recent weeks and will be keen to have a red hot go at a Westbourne team who have not traveled well this season . The return of "H-Cha" to Westbourne will be a boost though, and with Pavez and "Niks" in rare form, the Warriors will be far too good as they move up another rung on the ladder as they win by 39 points. The match of the day sees the Falcons take on the rebounding Saints . St.Mary's have struggled on the road this season, and will have their work cut out for them today to counter the brilliance of the Falcon's "Bushy" Hannett and Sean Allan . When they last met, the Falcons won a close match on the "Postage Stamp", however, given their recent form, I would expect today's winning margin to be a little greater . My tip is Albert Park to win by 22 points . Eltham return home after two recent floggings and will find no respite as they take on the league leaders in Mt .Lilydale . The Dale's percentage is a whopping 209% and could possibly improve today if the Turtles replicate their recent form . I do expect them to give a better account of themselves in front of their home crowd though as the likes of Doody and Brick will be too proud to just lay down and die . There is a significant gap between the top and bottom halves of the ladder in D4, however, and thi s

The last time these two sides met, Tate kicked 10 as the students won by 150 points, and unfortunately for Richmond, I believe Uni-High have improved since that game . With Gorringe in good form, and his teammates brimming with confidence, I think only a miracle will save Richmond from a 99-point defeat . The local derby between Brunswick Power and North Brunswick sees one team desperate to keep in touch with the top five, and the other, hoping to open its account for the year . The Power has shown some promise in recent weeks, and will keep up with North early . North's Papanikolou took his many opportunities and kicked a bag last week while Stelfox was defiant at the other end, and I am expecting a similar showing this weekend . When you combine this with Paleodimos drive out of the centre . I expect North Brunswick to run out easy winners by 42 points . Box Hill North has the bye . SOCIAI. Mt .Lilydale are holding their annual ladies lunch during next week's match against St .Marys . Price is $20 .00 per head and you need to see Monica to book . North Brunswick has their famous Brad "Digit" Robertson Cocktail Night tonight . Come in your 70's and 80's gear at the club around 8pm . Richmond Centrals are holding their Annual Banquet Auction Gala night at the San Remo Ballroom next Saturday. Everyone is welcome to bid on auction items at www.aussie-rules .net up until Friday 18th July .

F Old Westbourne - Warrior captain, Leon "Platters" Fairfield plays his 150th match for the club this weekend . Platters arrived at the club some 10 years ago as a feral, dread locked lad, but has since become the foundation in which the club has built itself. In his fourth year as captain, his strong work ethic, roguish good looks and ability to slot a goal through from fifty on either foot has endeared him to all at the club . Well done bloke! Bulleen Cobras - Vi Dam and Andrew Foskett both played their 50th match on the weekend . Andrew is a regular contributor to my column, although he forgot to mention it was his 50th last week, so a special well done from me.
