ary Finals - The Ultimate Crunch Game s often said that Preliminary Finals are the most e and fiercely fought games of the amateu r itball calendar . The stakes are arguably highe r a Grand Final, given that the winner is d with promotion and the loser faces r hard, twelve month slog to pus h

elves up the grades . Just ask Old Ivanhoe . ast season were forced into extra time in preliminary final clash (with the extra

iici conducted in virtual darkness) only to fal l >l 1 ort and face another year in B Section . Nort h Boys came similarly close several years ag o inst Mazenod and are now in C Section . Section game between Old Paradians an d

maris today is the perfect case in point ; two that have quite legitimate claims as B n clubs and who appear very eveni v Xnect . T he Ol d

lians, with their e : : star Daniel Harford , .11 :'.ustralian centre half

David Boundv an d freakish talent of rd Glenn Porteous , ied against th e

ienced and passionate Beaumaris side . ificantly, both suffered the indignity of being ted from B Section last year . Suffice to say, stakes could not be higher at Trevor Barker todav . , the D Section game between district Ormond and Prahran at Box Hill is the most .ant in each club's recent history . Though id finished 4 games and 66% higher on the r, the Two Blues still look capable of pullin g

a huge upset and progressing to C Section . the proud Ormond club has set their sights 1 ;finitely higher than D Section and nothing short of a win and subsequent promotion will satisfy them today. Both sides have stars aplenty : Ormond's tough half back and captain Simon h=leher, prolific goal-kicker David Beckett and silkv smooth midfielder Leigh Deledio tip against senior stai ~ rep and competition B&F favourit e

Gerard Bevan, last year's 1vIV'P and leading goal-kicker Adam Sleight and hard nosed, 300 game veteran Andre Pitts . It promises to be district football at its best . D2 sees two sides that couldn't be further apart geographically (Peninsula OB & Ruperstwood) meet half way at Central Reserve Glen Waverlev. Rupertswood, who went down to the very impressive Old Geelong in the 2nd Semi, are the obvious favourites to climb two grades in as many years but face a major obstacle in the form of Peninsula full forward Shaun Payze, who last week became the first goal-kicking centurion -vvith a te n goal haul . Rupertswood are looking to emulate another newcomer in Fitzroy Reds in a bold bid to work their way up the grades . Having led almost al l day against Werribee in the 2nd Semi, St John's will still be smarting and will throw everything at West Brunswick in the D3 play off . Still, St John's fell agonizingly short of promotion last year an d

'est Brunswick will give themselves a genuin e ance in the crunch game at the Preston City Oval . Similarly . D4 side Bulleen Cobras will go in as hot fancies against St Mary's at Cheltenham but as history keeps proving ; preliminary finals have a habit of throwing up curious results (and always seem to go right down to the wire) . There is no more devastated amateur footballer than he who has missed out on both a Grand Final berth and promotion at the same time . On this most important of weekends, here's hoping that it's your team who bring home the chocolates !

A typically low key end to the year ! There are certain mysteries that perplex even the most languid of minds . How has John Howard won four federal elections? Why was Frank Costanza's lawyer wearing a cape? And what, just what, is in the wate r down there at the Junction Oval ? They do it every year, those pesky OMs! Every year, the upset win which ensures their immediate safety in A Section and stuffs the rest of the competition up completely . This year, it was Old Scotch, their fiercest rival, in a game which meant so much to the Cardinals . Simply unbelievable, that's all I can say . Speaking of which, Collegians almost did it. As news filtered through that St Bernard's seemed to have Trinity's measure, Collegians were 19 points the better of top side H aileybury and appeared destined to pull off the most miraculous survival in A Section since the Mannix brothers' show at De La in '94 . And then. . . Drama ! Haileybury started to pile on goals, Trinity started to fight back against the 'Pitters and the Lion's dream was over. Full credit to them however, they overcame their unheralded list and won the respect of all who saw them this year . They really do deserve that B Section flag next season. And do Uni Blues deserve back to back A Section flags this vear? One look at their fleet of on-ballers begs the question: would you have to tag four of them to win the premiership? Paterson (still celebrating his well deserved win in the Sheik Medal) . Gleeson (hitting his straps at the right time), Matt Torney (who had a good year for Geelong in the VFL and is back with the Blues playing as well as ever) and Liam Ryan (a bit more lo w key but arguably the best of the lot) absolutely demolished the enigmatic Xavs. They look every bit as polished as last season . In the dead rubber, St Kevin's saw off Marcellin to end Robin Bowles' career in style . SKOBs played over 50 players this year, about half of whom were kids, so like Collegians, they should be a real B Section powerhouse next season . Preview 2nd Semi Final - Uni Blues v Old Haileybury Impossible to separate areri t they? Both in great form, both well coached, both relatively well treated in the injury front . Two things however, may tip the Blues over the line . . . 1J These Halleybury blokes have next to no finals

experience, as opposed to Uni, who did it in a canter last year 21 James Havter will play, having missed the last tw o encounters, and will almost certainly pick up Brett O'Farrell . No disrespect to the big Haileybury full forward, who is a gun player, but he is exactly the sort of any Hater loves stitching up . With that in mind, Uni by a goal but it's a toss of the coin job.

,view lst Semi Final - Old Scotch v Old Xaverlans Everything says Scotch doesn't it? Despite last week's blip, they have been in stellar form, have the competitions leading goal-kicker and boast a list brimming with talent . And let's face it. Xavs have been in dire straights, cari't win at Toorak Park to save themselves and don *t seem to have enough down back to quell the big name Scotch forwards . But wouldn't you know it, I'm wavering and wavering and wavering and I'm going for Xavs . I tipped them as certainties in March, they never (ever) lose finals, they have a ridiculously good record against Scotch in play offs and they may just get some big name finals ph ., rs back for the game .

MILESTONE S .-)Id Hailey' -- 1s' - Congratulate Luke Floyd on playing ]its i. me for the Bloods against Collegians last week. Luke began his career with the Under 19s in 1997 whilst still at the College, and in a remarkable career has only missed 2 matches since 1998 (103 consecutive) . Luke was joint winner of the Reserves B & F in 2001 . Well done 'Floydy' . The Bloods would also like to congratulate Chris Efstathiou oil kicking his 50 0th goal for the club last week . Since beginning his career in 1996, Chris has proved more than a handfull for opposition fullbacks to contain, with bags of 14 goals on 2 occasions and has topped the competitio n lid Melburaliaals - congratulates Chris Jenkins on becoming just the 20th player in the club's 85-,ear history to play 200 games with the club . Coincidentally, today's match is also his 150th in the reserves, a team he has captained ~uspirationally since 2003 . Unlucky not to have played more senior matches, Jenks has also played 35 in the under 19s and only one player 11 as managed more consecutive matches than the '20 he managed between 1997 and 2003 . A former reserves' best and fairest, champion clubman and all-round ripping bloke, the club hopes 2005 can be the year he adds the title of premiership captain to his long list of honours . Well done Jenks !

PREVIEW

REVIEW Whitefriars finished their season on a high with a big win over C Grade bound NOBS . The plucky Tigers succumbed to Old Essendon to join NOBS in the lower grade while Mazenod shattered MHSOB' finals dreams with a big win at

The picturesque Sandringham Oval awaits Old Brighton and Old Essendon in the cut throat first semi on Sunday . Both enter the game with differing form through the last three rounds with the

Sportscover . De La kept their moment going finishing 5 ay season in pretty good the home and a w condition with a good win over Caulfield Grammarions in front of the Stonnington . The Fields tried C0uncillors at Malvern pretty hard and can be reasonably happy with their first year back in B Section . Leigh and Peter Harrison were in good form, Mick Duggan and Aaron Shield s

Old Ivanhoe as has been their norm of late burst out of the blocks and had the game sewn up at half time in an impressive warm up for the ensuing . Old Brighton just seem to be off weeks the boil a little bit at the moment and have only a few days now to right the .

an interesting encounter . The return of David Dawes up forward will certainly straighten Old Brighton up and may be just the catalyst they need to return to some of their best form . These two have had some epic encounters over the past couple of years and today will be no different . But the fact that it is at Sandringham in conditions so close to their own sways me to select Old Brighton but only just .

Second Semi Fina l Old Ivanhoe hold a small pyschological advantage over De La Salle having beaten them twice during the year one of them at Sportscover where the two sides clash today to see which side will be the first to earn the right to play in A Section in 2006 . Promises plenty this game as the pacy little runners of DLS try to combat the talented more physical on ball brigade of the Hoers . Both sides have had terrific seasons and have stood out as the leaders in the Section . But all that totally means diddly squat today as a Grand Final berth beckons . In a quandary as I rate them both I just feel that the extra height and a bit more strength will get the Hoers to A first . ?RE SS CORRESPONDENTS .

~ THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 2

The Blacks are through to another Grand Final and a 2006 B Grade place . Congratulations on a job well done! Old Paradians dug deep and move into a preliminary final after all looked lost trailing by 38 points at the main change . Even after booting eight in the third to take a narrow time advantage, many thought they would still succumb against the wind, but they showed great character to down the Wellers and have given themselves an opportunity to prevail against their 2004 B Grade combatant, the Sharks, for the right to return in 2006 .

P's endeavour was enormous and their preparedness to wan t the ball shone through . . . " REVIEW 2nd Semi Final Blacks v Sharks Beauy hit the ground running in fine but blustery conditions on Saturday afternoon . Uni peppered the goals in the second term and if not for some poor conversion should have held a greater advantage at the main interval . Sandiford and Lalich were using their height to great advantage for the Blacks whilst McNicholas was working hard for the Sharks . In the third term Uni against the wind narrowly extended their lead and that was always going to make it hard for the blue and golds . Barry was standing firm in the Uni backline and whether forward or back Bevacqua led from the front . Ensor and Graham gave their all for the Sharks, but Uni didn't appear to have a poor player and they ran the ball well from deep in defence and were deserving victors .

Who saw it coming? OP dominated th e early proceedings but just couldn't find the target booting a wayward two seven with the aid of the breeze . The Wellers then launched into action booting eight large and seemingly splitting the game wide open . Loates was deadly up forward and Goodale was lively for OC . Paradians knew with the season on the line it was imperative they mount some scoreboard pressure and what a quarter, 15 scoring shots to one and with Boundy starring and Porteous finally finding the mark, the deficit had been erased and a slender lead was held by the Bundoora boys, but with Camberwell coming home with the breeze, the odds were still stacked against them . However - OP's endeavour was enormous and their preparedness to want the ball shone through and despite OC winning the quarter, OP's won the game and are still alive, a credit to the never say die attitude . Batzloff and irucnf erg gave it

C SECTION

A place in the Grand Final is so close, who wants it most? The teams have shared their 2005 battles, but it means little this afternoon . OP will be feeling cock a hoop after last week's thrilling performance and thinking anything is possible . Beauy may just be feeling a little vulnerable as whispers of "straight sets" get bandied around . The Sharks were the second most consistent side in 2005 and they need to stay positive today . OP's experienced hands could well prove a handful as could their host of tall players . The concern for them is if the Sharks can get their full complement of talls on the paddock as their aerial supremacy may prove too much . At no stage will either team be out of this game and it should be another C grade special, but for mine Beauy worked too hard during the season to earn their double chance and I think they will capitalise upon it today .

MILESTONE S Beaumaris

Luke has been dogged with injury over recent years and this milestone is a reflection of his dedication to play . Th e Club hopes his next 100 comes with les s interruption through injury .

The fun doesn't stop there, just ask new Executive Member Rick Sykes who found the view from the top of the Cheltenham Recreation Reserve's roof quite nice, although a little blustery, you see the ball has a habit of staying put at Chelt - on the roof .

Congratulations to Peter Hille, Graham Burgen, and the entire Fitzroy Reds Club on being the first to lock in promotion to C Section in 2006 (subject to absence of indescribable Team Sheet abnormalities of course!) . My first acquaintance with the formidable Hi1lelBurgen Duumvirate was back in their Uni Reds days in the old F Section of 1991 ; they were scheming, conniving miscreants then & nothing's changed! They were so much better at it than I ever was ! 2nd SEMIS SE NIOR Fitzroy Reds had Ormond on the ropes with 5 unanswered goals half way through Qi and took a 33 points margin into g 2 . Ormond bridged some of the gap kicking with the 2-3 goals northerly, but the Reds ran out the match 33 points winners . The Reds' talls troubled the Monds and their defence kept the Monds forwards under intense pressure, which is reflected in their 11-17 yield for the day . Once more Burgo's "Defences win finals!' policy has triumphed ! I have no disagreement with the Best Players featured opposite, but should mention some observations of a very skilled display by both teams : the adaptability of Reds' key positioners, Steve Drury & Conor Dullard, who just don't mind whether they're at CHB or F ; Milos Zika's pin point passing on his wing : the precision coordination of Burgo's be ed backmen as they converted attac' r attack by Moods into opportunities for Reds distributors & forwards : the blinding acceleration of Moods' Michael Miller, & the clever anticipation & coolness of defender Simon Keleher regardless of stress levels!

=: :1 5a: 4RV E

i ,. e ds & Mond s were neck & neck L until Half Time, thereafter Red s asserted a superiority which saw the Moods having only one further scoring shot, a goal in the last Qtr . I. S 'i' i ', : :: 1 : 7

In a much stronger north wind than Saturdav, ' a converted their toss win into a 7-2 to1-2 lst Qtr lead and Old Carey looked discombobulated & gone! To their credit, the C's regrouped and had the better of the Two Blues for the rest of the game, but the latter was the cooler of the two when the C's got to within 2 points in the back half of Q4 . Prahran never surrendered the lead and with steadv, possession football kicked a crucial goal to foil the C's brave attempt to cause an upset! Again, some observations : Prahran's "Cuddles" McCudden isn't .cuddly' at all, he's a tall, lithe, athlete, with vice-like hands and a deadly accurate kick! ; the savvy & know how of the Two Blues defence in those crucial moments i n

Rupo played well in the middle two quarters against Old Geelong, but started slowly and also let the OGs run all over them in the finish . They will need to exhibit the form they showed in the second and third term to give themselves the best show of winning. The Pirates, by contrast, were always in control in their match against Williamstown GYMS . The forwards, led by Payze, scored several goals from long bombs while Willy never really had the opportunity to match these efforts.

If the northerly breeze (towards the Paul Angelis end) is anything like it was on both days of last weekend, the opportunity to use it cannot be wasted . It was no coincidence that the two teams who started the game with the breeze both won (the fact they may have won anyway is purely a point of conjecture) . The likes of Brennan, Whitehead and the livewire Gaunt will need to be at the top of their game for Rupo and although they featured prominently for their side, not enough of their comrades stood up to be counted with them, and this will need to change for Saturday, especially as the Pirates forward line has been particularly potent in the last few weeks . I'm also looking forward to the likes of Payze, Wood and Pownev to continue their rich vein of current form for Peninsula, although the fact that Rupo have multiple options up forward, rather than one or two obvious focal points, may prove vexing for the Pirates back half. Although Rupo finished three games ahead of Peninsula in the home and away season, their percentages, as well as their actual respective for and against points tallies, are quite similar, and I think this will give us a better indication of the true difference between these teams rather than their win-loss records . It should be real free wheeling, fire wagon football .

Anderson , St Kevins won the A Section first semi-final easily from Uni blues, 13 .10 to 8 .18 . No doubt the Blues poor conversion did not help their cause but SKOBS deserved their victory .

St Bernards had the better of the Xavs, 19 .10 to 15 .12 and was the 'super run 'of the mighty Xavs over? They would have to overcome their fierce rivals SKOBS in the following week's preliminary final~ to have the opportunity to record an unprecedented 6 consecutive A Section flags . North Old Boys 17 .14 defeated De La Salle 7 .18 in the B Section first semi . Best players ; Booth, Drum, Lock, R Maguire, Sanders, and Curry (NOBS) and Swift, Evans, Mannix, Vavello, Thomas and Goodier (DLS) . Old , Brighton did nothing to lessen their overwhelming favouritism in B Section with a 17 .12 to 12 .13 win over Mazenod . Brighton had taken their foot off the pedal a little bit in the final term but it was an impressive performance . Best for Brighton ; Bradley (8), Lennox, Dennis, Jackson, Ewart, Williams . For Mazenod ; Ryan, O'Donoghue, M Murray, Kavanagh (3), Tucker and McIntyre (Mazenod) .

The popular and respected Mark Gibson took out the initial "Umpire of the Year" award, assessed on a number of criteria . "Gibbo" remains a highly regarded "Man in White" and continues to maintain his exceptional standards . D2 Section scribe, Eivion Bowen, summed up the preliminary final result thus ; Uni Blacks advanced to the Grand Final in convincing fashion over Parkside . They set up the win early in proceedings by establishing a five goal lead which Parkside was unable to bridge . 18 .23 to 11 .10 was the final result . Best players were ; Dimond, Wilson (4), Bowden, Costello, Caccaviello and Mackie (Uni Blacks) and Matthews (4), Copley, Moodie, McCall, Contantini and Reginato (Parkside).

Best & Fairest winners - Glen Cox, Marcellin (A), Rob Bonnici, De La Salle (B), Stephen

Martin,

Uni Blues had no trouble defeatin g Scotch in the A Section first semi-final, 18 .12 to 8 .13 and could easily pose a problem to the other contenders, Old Xaverians and Ormond . Best ; Henderson, Allardice, McLachlan, Wilson, Lennon (7) and Hazeldine (Uni Blues) and . Fuller, McCall, Price, Hosking, Millar and Stokes (Scotch) . After their second semi-final win over Ormond, 14 .15 to 6 .8, Old Xaverians were un-backable to win the A Section premiership . Blood, Sassi, Bowen, McDonald, Hunter and Dunn were excellent performers for the Xavs and Dan Richardson kicked 4 goals . Sebo, Grace, McDonald, James, Gallagher and Gilmore were triers for Ormond . The C Section preliminary final was won by Ivanhoe at Marcellin's expense, 18 .20 to 8 .10 and the 'Hoes were now keen to have the rematch against Old Ivanhoe . Bullen, Tucker, Nibaldi (4), Blackwood, La Rosa and Pearce were Ivanhoe's best . Seabury, Theiz, Getson, Sampimon, Moran and Day played respectably for Marcellin . North Old Boys under 19's were on fire in the Junior Section 2 preliminary final against Old Carey . Bangit and Sweeney were outstanding for NOBS and Maguire completely blanketed Carey's gun forward Spencer. Clancy and Petinis each bagged 4 goals for NOBS while Birkhill and Porter each got 3 for Carey whose other better players were Hendricks and the two Angus boys, Matt and Chris .

medal presentations . Christian Davidson (Collegians) and Matt McConvill (Ormond), both brilliant exponents of our game, shared the A Section best and fairest award . Andrew Pryor was a high scoring, worthy winner in B Section from Matty Armstrong, the diminutive Old Haileybury speedster . Adam Thompson (St Bedes Mentone) won C Section from the brilliant youngster Trent Collins (Marcellin) . Thomastown's Tony Fellows won another competition best & fairest (D Section) and became one of the competition's most decorated players ; Caulfield Grammarians' star Nigel Brohier was runner-up .

Brian (Benny) Goodman and Peter Wiseman were the field umpires in the A Section first semi-final at Elsternwick Park between North Old Boys and De La Salle . It was a special day for Benny in his 300th game as a field umpire and followed a playing career with Brunswick Amateurs (106 games) and I well recall Benny wearing the red and white striped jumper at umpire training sessions! This was also Benny's 21st season in amateur football, a marvellous effort (and still involved 20 years on) . The game was won by De La Salle, 11 .17 to 5 .7 and De La could not be considered as "without a chance" in the coming weeks .

In the second semi Ormond easily accounted for Collegians by 43 points . Ormond had started slowly but their 8 goal second term set up the win and the final score was 17 .13 to 10 .12 . Elsternwick's season ended in the E Section preliminary final as Heatherton proved too strong, 21 .13 to 13 .10 . Best ; T Howell, Ulbrick, Patterson (7), Rooney, M Easey and Quanchi (Heatherton) and Farrelly . Evangelista, Farrington (4), Hill, Bean and Thompson (Elsternwick) . Veteran Jack King (Parkside) won the B Section best and Fairest with 15 votes from T Amad (Marcellin), R Brown (Old Melburnians) and M Varney (Kew) all on 14 votes .

In A Section North Old Boys put paid to Uni Blacks' aims to win back to back flags by playing a magnificent final quarter to defeat

the Blacks after being 3 goals down at the final break . The final score in this first semifinal was 14 .17 to 13 .12 . Best players ; Butera, Carroll, Wigney, Hall (5), Hogan, S Maguire (NOBS) and Moffatt (6), Clarke, Perrett, Kovess, Webster and Dynon (Blacks) .

The D Section preliminary final between Fawkner and Old Geelong was a fairly even game until half time, only a goal in OGGS' favour. Fawkner stepped on the gas in the third and went to a seven point lead . OGGS started the final term strongly but Fawkner finished comfortably in front at the final bell, 13 .18 to 9 .18 and had earned the right to have another crack at Hampton Rovers the following week . Reservoir Old Boys' captain, M Bates, easily won the A Section best and fairest award with 27 votes from P Golding of Monash Blues 17 votes . I Davis (Geelong) was third on 15 votes .

i ~- - - .- = The A Section first-semi final was between Old Paradians and Coburg was won by Coburg . The teams lined up as follows : Old Paradian s B : Jones . P Booth .

(beating all o? he 2n d 6 ; : r- :'.?~ee v S f. â&#x20AC;˘ 3hns The best two teams for the year, slugging it out for 4 quarters, and the winner? No one . Scores level at full time in what was an enthralling contest for those lucky to be there. In a game of two halves the Joe's jumped out to a 7 goal lead during the second quarter with likes of Chalk, Rydquist and Diaz doing the damage. It would have been easy for the B's to think it was not their day, and throw in the towel . However, during the second, the game settled and Werribee began to chip away at the lead . With tough, hard running and precision foot skills they got back to a manageable margin at the big break . The 2nd half proved to be an epic, with Werribee appearing to have the measure of St Johns, but the Jocs continued to dig deep and answer every challenge thrown at them . With less than 3 minutes to go, St Johns goaled and held a 13point margin, and one foot into D2 . However, Werribee surged again with two late goals and with Tedesco everywhere, helped get the margin to 1 point, a miraculous snap from Werribee's Palmington, seemed to seal the match, only for the field umpire to signal touched ball, and level the scores . A last minute forward thrust by St Johns went agonisingly close and the siren sounded . Full Time! Scores Level! Extra Time! First session of extra time saw Werribee, score 1 point, and in the second a goal, meaning they move through to the Grand Final and D2 . To the losers who were gallant all day, a second chance next week . It is fitting that they go on, as to have been eliminated after such an effort would not have been a fitting conclusion to their year! .

lst Semi Final - Westbourne v West Brunswick After the high drama and excitement of Saturday it was always going to be difficult for this game to reach those heights . Westbourne the form side of the second half of the year

rfinalst), t Brunswick . whose last 6 games ha d varied between hot (wins against Werribee and St Johns), and freezing, losses to Syndal, UHS and South Melbourne . In the first quarter the boys from Brunswick started well kicking four goals to one . Two goals to Steve Srnythe, and Bill Morgan in the middle were the instigators . With the wind in the Second, West Brunswick kicked a couple and looked set to run away with it. Westbourne had other ideas, with "Platters" Fairfield gaining control across CHB, and Balloch controlling his wing with menace, the Warriors struck back to get within 3 at half time . West Brunswick controlled the third quarter, but could not convert, kicking 1 .6, to nothing in the first 20 minutes, Westbourne goaled late, and had a goal disallowed right on the three quarter time bell . Early goals to West Brunswick saw the Warrior bubble burst, and with the heat out of the game saw the Magpies finish comfortable winners . To Westbourne, a very creditable effort coming up from D4, they will be looking forward to a big pre-season, and a more consistent first half of the season nex t

year. To the Magpies, a chance to move forward next week .

In the reserves, while the Gryphons have had a very good season, it is very hard to go past a Werribee outfit that is taking everything in its wake, and with the experience of the likes of hiting in the side, it will be the Bees in a canter. W sibee by 35 points .

Good-bye With the end of the season we say goodbye to players, umpires and coaches who decide to retire for various reasons . One such good bye is Mazenod's coach Mike Mc Arthur- Allen, who finished off with a win and was so happy he shouted the bar ; unfortunately Gibbo and Leah couldn't get their mobile phones out to let the

credit that he can combine his pursuits at such a high level and for so long . Well done Bob, have a great day and make sure you use all your fingers when signalling a goal!

Back in town just in time for finals and didn't it feel like a true finals weekend ! Review Second Semi Final The all conquering Elsternwick took on the inform Bulleen down at Cheltenham Reserve . With a gale heading towards the bay end, it was the underdogs who took control early as Bulleen raced to a six goal lead at the first break . They then managed to kick the first goal after the break with the Wicks looking decidedly sick and sorry. With the game at a critical point, the trio of Brian and Craig Mahony and Lachlan Bedingfield stepped up to the mark and started the long haul back and how the game turned . The Wicks were unstoppable, ramming home 10 goals to take an unexpected half time lead . Bulleen again got back into the game in the third stanza, led well by Conn and Arcoraci . They took the lead and held a 1 goal break at the last change . It was still tight half way through the last quarter before the Wicks machine once again got going to record an 8 goal win . Apart from the trio noted above, Neil in the ruck starred whilst the 'Human Blanket', Brett Mason, did a great job in curtailing Badanjek, Bulleen's forward line star. Best for Bulleen also included Fradkin with 6 goals and Kellett . Great win and promotion for the Wicks, use of the double chance for Bulleen . First Semi Final St Mary's came to play against Hawthorn, a fact evident by them outscoring the Hawks in the first quarter, despite kicking into a stiff breeze . The first 10 minutes of the second quarter were even until the Saints broke it open with a stunning assault . The Armstrong boys were in everything whilst Waller was also proving to be a handful for the Hawks .

A few better signs in the third quarter for the Hawks, with Saulle lighting up the midfield and S Avery starting to assert some authority up forward . The gap was closed but there was a

sense of not quite enough and so it played out with th eSaintsrugo t well deserve d winners . Graetzer and Ballantine were also good for the winners whilst Dawson and Rice tried hard for the Hawks . The Saints live to fight another day whilst the Hawks start thinking about next year.

adanjek was well held in last weeks final and his team will be too : :isg,for a lift from him this week. " Preview Two evenly matched sides present for the cut throat preliminary final . Both sides enjoyed wins on their home turn in the two matches played during the year . To emphasize the closeness, both games had margins around the 40 point mark !

Badanjek was well held in last weeks final and his team will be looking for a lift from him this week . Other keys to Bulleen's game include Pasinati, playing a sweeping role at Centre Half Back, Arcoraci who racks up possessions a s

, . 11 kicking goals and Dave Trinchi with his Jentless run off half back . For the Saints, the Armstrong boys are hard to stop with their willingness to get in and under a feature . Schembri acts as a steadying force (1 : )wn back whilst Tagell and Bull can be match -; inners in their own right . Really tough here . Bulleen managed to send a scare through Elsternwick camp whilst the Saints were ultra impressive against the Hawks . I fancy the Saints might just have to contend with a rampaging Richie Badanjek and this should be enough to get Bulleen into next lj.--eks Grand Final . - crreslsearrdents / Coaches Would be great to hear from D4 coaches and s-ribes about their thoughts on the D4 team of the year.

THE AMATEUR FOOTBALLER 20 '

Grand Final day is always an exciting time and this day was no different . ':ie had three brilliant games that were showcased with some telling and close results . The first Grand Final that was played was the ' 1 3 match between Maribyrnong 2 and Mambourin Tigers . Maribyrnong had too much class from the very first siren kicking 2 goals against a gale wind to Mambourin nothing with the wind . The rest of the game was all Maribyrnong . The end result Maribyrnong 2 11 .6 (72) defeated Mambourin 0 .0 (0) . The second Grand Final played was the ' n2 match between Port Colts 1 id ivfazenod Panthers 1 . This was a very ), e beginning with the quarter time score of Port Colts 1 .3 (8) to Mazenod 1 .0 (6) . But in the second quarter Mazenod

went bang with the wind slamming on 5 goals to 1 and the rest of the game was just battled out with no real fight back from the Colts . The end score Mazenod Panthers 7 .7 (49) to Port Colts 3 .5 (23) . The last Grand Final of the day was an absolute heart stopper between Kananook 1 and North Ballarat Knights . This game was close all day with no more than a goal separating them at the end of each quarter . In the end their always has to be a winner and a well deserved one too . The Division 1 victors were the North Ballarat Knights . The close game ended Ballarat 5 .3 (33) to Kananook 1 4 .3(27) . That raps up another year of FIDA football . Look forward to seeing all teams in 2006 .

1st semi final : Oakleigh -v- St Bedes MT yNqiilst my mail was the Tigers could have called in a couple of young stars, the overall superiority of Oakleigh was going to prove tough to beat . Cleary just keeps slotting them through and deservedly led his side into the Prelim with Harold and Pound-Glow in tow . 2nd semi-t"inal : Old Paradians -v- Uni Blacks The Second Semi started at a cracking pace with both sides throwing their weight around . The dangerous Battista started the game as expected and was well held by Stace for the entire game . For the Blacks, Napier and Shaw provided numerous opportunities for their teani-mates as they continued to battle hard for the pill. The Raiders halfbacks were the spring board for their victory, running hard through the lines and earning a week's rest in the process (with plenty of injured players needing the rehab!) . Preliminary Final Uni Blacks -v- Oakleig h Can the perennial season leaders bounce back? The Bill Lawry Oval hosts two very well matched sides with the Oakleigh boys' physicality contrasting with the Students' skill and run . I'm thinking the Oak's momentum will be hard to stop. Oakleigh by 11 points Section Blue lst semi flnal : Salesian Scorpions -v- Hampton R over s The Chadstone boys finally got things back on track last week, and took their re-newed confidence into the lst semi-final. Dominating from the first bounce, they took a while to find their range, but Wilson, Crowley and Kelly proved a handful for Hampton Rovers to contain . A solid 3rd quarter put the result almost beyond doubt, but, to their credit . Hampton, led by Mr Rootsey, never threw in the towel . 2nd semi-final : Ormond -v- Mazeno d Starting with a 5 goal breeze, Ormond swamped the hard-working Mazenod from about the 20 minute mark, kicking 5 goals in 8 minutes to lead by that margin . The Monders really set it up in the second term outscoring Mazenod comfortably before belting them in the third term for a 98 point three-quarter time lead . An eight goal final term would have given the Nodders some hope for next week, but if they do prevail will it be more of the same in the GF ? Prelimina ry Final Mazenod -v- Salesian Can Regan's boys recover from the shellacking of last week? Will Hazell's heroes continue their upward swing of form? Winning form's good form, and I'm plumbing for Salesian in a tight one . Salesian by 5 points . Section Red - Semi Finals Revie w Minor premiers Emmaus St Leos proved they well and truly aren't invincible last weekend, after scraping home by 12 points against a gallant Kew side . Outscored in the third and

fourth quarters Emmaus were matched for most of the afternoon, with the premiership-favourites almost letting the match slip in the dying stages with some terribly wayward kicking . Kew will take plenty of positives from the game especially if the sides meet in a fortnight's time, with the clear key to defeating Emmaus the nullification of big-forward Lalor who bagged eight of the side's twelve goals . Aquinas horror run of recent continued in the section's other Semi as the once-ladder leaders were bundled out in the first round of the finals by Old westbourne . Trailing for the best part of the afternoon Aquinas fell short by 12 points despite having three more chances in front of goal . Mitrovski was the only multiple goalkicker for the winners bagging two, with Chan, Templeton and Tanner amongst the best. Section Red - Preliminary Final Preview Kew and Old Westbourne will meet for the first time in almost two months this weekend, as the two sides battle it out for a spot in the 2005 Section Red Grand Final . Kew are 2-0 against Westbourne this season, backing up a 39 point win in Round 3 with a 21 point win nine rounds later . However Westbourne have improved over the latter half of the season, with their charge towards fourth-spot and defeat of Aquinas last weekend proof of their sudden renaissance as premiershipcontenders . E~ :pect this one to be decided by the final goal of the day. Kew by 5 points .
